Landscape Design & Installation in West U

We start with a walk‑through to understand your home’s architecture, sun/shade patterns, soil conditions, and how you want to use the space. Our designs emphasize curb appeal up front and livability out back—without adding unnecessary maintenance.

Design priorities:

  • Shade‑tolerant plantings beneath mature trees
  • Heat/drought‑resistant shrubs and perennials for seasonal color
  • Clean bed lines, quality edging, and proper soil amendments
  • Mulch and weed control strategies that keep beds tidy

From compact West U lots to larger corner properties, we deliver cohesive, long‑lasting landscapes.

Artificial Turf

For shaded lawns, small play areas, pet zones, and high‑traffic side yards, premium artificial turf delivers year‑round color with minimal upkeep.

Benefits:

  • No mowing or fertilizing
  • Mud‑free, kid‑ and pet‑friendly surfaces
  • Consistent color under trees and in narrow side yards
  • Advanced drainage bases to handle Houston downpours

 

Pavers, Walkways & Patios

Interlocking pavers add structure and elegance—perfect for classic West U façades.

We build:

  • Welcoming front walkways with soft curves or crisp lines

  • Garden paths and bed edging that stay put

Every project includes proper base prep, compaction, edge restraints, and drainage planning for long‑term stability.
