Designscapes Landscaping & Watergardening - Saint Joseph's Professional Landscaping

Absolutely. Standing water and unhealthy shrubs are common issues in our area, often linked to poor drainage and soil conditions. We start with a site evaluation to diagnose the root cause. Solutions can include strategic earthmoving and regrading to redirect water flow, installing French drains, or building retaining walls to manage slopes. For the shrubs, we provide expert care including disease and insect management, and can recommend and plant native species better suited to local conditions. Our goal is to create a landscape that is not only beautiful but also resilient and properly drained.

Yes, we provide a seamless, start-to-finish service. It begins with a collaborative design consultation where we listen to your vision and assess your property. From there, our in-house team handles all construction and installation, including hardscaping, planting, irrigation, and lighting. Because we manage the entire process, we maintain strict quality control and ensure the final build matches the design intent. This integrated approach is why so many of our projects come from client referrals.

We specialize in professional, low-voltage landscape lighting systems. This includes installing new fixtures for pathway, accent, and security lighting, as well as repairing existing systems. Proper installation is crucial for safety and longevity, so our licensed electricians handle all electrical connections. We use durable, energy-efficient fixtures designed to withstand Missouri weather, and can design a lighting plan that highlights your landscape's best features while improving evening usability and security.
