Environmental Landworks - Golden's Trusted Landscapers

We address common Golden issues like patchy lawns and overgrown shrubs with a holistic, sustainable renovation. First, we assess soil health and drainage, often amending with compost to improve grass growth. For overgrowth, we selectively prune or transplant shrubs to improve health and sightlines. Our design then integrates these solutions into a new plan using native grasses and shrubs that are naturally resilient to our local climate, reducing water use and maintenance long-term while creating a more cohesive and attractive yard.

Yes, we provide a seamless, start-to-finish service. As a full-service landscape architecture firm, we manage everything from the initial design and planning, through all construction and installation, to final planting and ongoing maintenance. This includes necessary hardscapes like patios, walkways, and retaining walls, as well as softscaping and irrigation systems. Our collaborative process ensures the final build matches the design vision, is constructed to last, and aligns with our sustainable practices.

For us, it means designing landscapes that work with the local environment, not against it. In the Golden foothills, this involves selecting native and adapted plants that require less water and are resistant to local pests, designing efficient irrigation zones, and using construction methods that minimize soil disruption and runoff. We also prioritize permeable materials for hardscapes to improve drainage and source materials locally when possible. The goal is a beautiful, functional yard that conserves resources and thrives in our specific climate.
