Our 25 years of experience in Vermont have taught us how to work with the local environment. We focus on native and climate-appropriate plantings that require less water and are more resistant to local pests.

It's about creating beauty that's built to last and in harmony with Shelburne.

Absolutely. Poor drainage is a frequent issue in Shelburne, often due to our soil composition and topography. We address this by first diagnosing the specific cause on your property. Our solutions can include regrading, installing French drains or dry wells, and incorporating permeable paving in patio and walkway designs. We integrate these functional elements seamlessly into the overall landscape plan, ensuring your yard is both beautiful and effectively manages water.

It starts with a consultation to understand your vision, usage needs, and site conditions. Our award-winning design team then creates a plan that complements your home's architecture and the surrounding landscape. We handle all aspects of the masonry and concrete work, from proper base preparation to the final installation of pavers or poured concrete, ensuring a level, durable, and aesthetically pleasing result. We also coordinate any related plantings or features, like adjoining walls or walkways, for a cohesive finished outdoor space.
