Company Background

Groundworks Inc. is a fully women-owned Brooklyn landscaping business founded by partners who share a deep-rooted love for plants and working outdoors. With over 30 years of combined urban gardening experience, we specialize in bringing the culture to horticulture through thoughtful design, installation, and maintenance. Our expertise lies in transforming challenging urban spaces like rooftop terraces, green roofs, and classic brownstone backyards into lush, functional gardens. Described as 'a pedicure for the garden,' our meticulous approach ensures every project reflects our commitment to beauty, sustainability, and client satisfaction. We are dedicated to helping Brooklyn residents cultivate their dream outdoor spaces, blending expert knowledge with a genuine passion for the local environment.

Q&A

How does Groundworks handle common Brooklyn yard drainage and standing water issues?

Many Brooklyn properties, especially in older brownstone neighborhoods, face drainage challenges. Our team is experienced in assessing and correcting these urban-specific issues. We design solutions like proper grading, French drains, and permeable hardscaping to redirect standing water, protecting your garden's health and your property's foundation. Our greenscape and landscape designs always integrate smart water management for a resilient outdoor space.

What is included in your landscape maintenance service?

Our maintenance service is like a regular wellness check for your garden. We provide seasonal pruning, weeding, fertilization, soil care, and irrigation system checks to keep your Brooklyn garden thriving year-round. For rooftop and terrace gardens, this includes special attention to container plants and waterproofing integrity. Think of it as ongoing care to preserve the beauty and vitality of the outdoor space we designed and built together.

What is the process for a new landscape design project with Groundworks?

It starts with a consultation at your Brooklyn home to understand your vision, the specific conditions of your space—be it a rooftop, terrace, or backyard—and any challenges like limited sunlight or drainage. From there, we create a custom design plan that blends aesthetics with functionality. Once approved, our experienced team handles the installation, using plants and materials suited for NYC's climate. We then offer maintenance to ensure your garden continues to flourish.
