Common Questions
As a Matthews homeowner, how do you handle common issues like storm debris and bare lawn patches?
We understand that Carolina weather can be tough on landscapes. For storm debris, our landscape maintenance services include efficient cleanup and removal to restore your property's safety and appearance. For bare patches, we don't just re-sod; we assess the underlying cause—often soil compaction or drainage issues common in our local clay soils—and provide a complete solution that may include soil amendment, regrading, and proper turf installation to ensure long-term lawn health.
What does being a 'Registered Landscape Contractor' (License #1060) mean for my hardscape project?
Our state registration signifies a verified level of expertise, financial stability, and adherence to industry standards. For your hardscape project—like a patio, walkway, or retaining wall—it means the work is performed by a qualified professional crew, is fully insured and bonded, and meets local building codes. This credential is your assurance of a durable, correctly installed structure that adds value and safety to your Matthews home.
Can you handle both the softscape (plants) and hardscape (stonework) for a full backyard renovation?
Absolutely. As a full-service design and installation company, we seamlessly integrate both. Our process begins with a cohesive plan that balances functional hardscapes like patios and walkways with complementary softscapes including trees, shrubs, and garden beds. With over 25 years of experience, our crew manages the entire project, ensuring drainage, lighting, and plant health are all considered together for a unified, low-maintenance outdoor living space.
