Business Background
For Gary Roberts, landscaping is pure love, and it started at an early age. ""When other kids were playing baseball, I was planting roses,"" he says. By 18, he had the largest lawn service in Detroit, later earning his degree in landscape architecture from MSU. Great Oaks Landscape Associates, established in 1984, was born from Gary's commitment to providing clients in Novi and beyond with the best. Known for a friendly manner and a focus on lasting satisfaction, the project is only complete when the client is happy. Whether it's a residential garden or a large commercial project, this experienced team handles everything from initial design and construction to ongoing maintenance. They also offer the community access to quality nursery stock, including deciduous trees, evergreens, and perennials, through their annual public event.
FAQs
As a Novi homeowner, my landscape edging is often damaged and my rock garden shifts. How do you address these common local issues?
We see these issues frequently in Novi due to our soil conditions and freeze-thaw cycles. For edging, we use durable, deep-set materials and proper installation techniques to prevent heaving and damage. For rock gardens and retaining walls, our construction includes specialized drainage and secure foundational work to ensure stability and prevent shifting over time, creating a landscape built to last in our local climate.
Do you handle both the design and construction of a project, like a new patio or walkway?
Yes, absolutely. As a full-service design-build company since 1984, we manage your project from start to finish. Our licensed landscape architects create the initial design, and our experienced construction crew handles the installation—whether it's a patio, walkway, retaining wall, or irrigation system. This seamless process ensures the final result matches the vision and is built to our high standards.
What kind of ongoing maintenance do you offer after my new landscape is installed?
We provide comprehensive maintenance to protect your investment. Our services include seasonal clean-ups, shrub care (pruning, disease/insect management, and transplanting), irrigation system checks, and overall landscape health monitoring. For many clients in Novi, this ongoing care is essential for managing local pests and weather challenges, keeping their outdoor space beautiful year after year.
