Larkin Landscape and Design | Reliable Landscaping Services in Ankeny, IA

In Ankeny, where soil composition and lot grading can lead to water pooling, we address drainage issues at the source. Our process involves a site assessment to identify the problem areas. Solutions often include strategic earthmoving and regrading to direct water away from foundations, paired with the installation of subsurface drainage systems like French drains. We integrate these functional solutions seamlessly into the overall landscape design, ensuring they protect your property while maintaining the beauty of your yard.

Yes, design is a foundational part of our process, especially for complex builds. We specialize in creating unique, functional outdoor living areas. For an outdoor kitchen or entertainment space, we start with a consultation to understand your vision. We then use 3D rendering software to create a photorealistic model of the proposed project. This allows you to see the layout, material choices, and how it integrates with your existing landscape before any construction begins, ensuring the final build meets your expectations.

Proper establishment is key in our climate. After planting, we recommend a consistent watering schedule for the first two growing seasons, especially during dry spells. Our maintenance services include seasonal pruning and trimming to promote healthy growth and shape. For tree care, we offer cabling and bracing for structural support if needed. We can also set up a tailored maintenance plan that includes shrub care, mulching, and monitoring for any issues, helping your new investment thrive year after year.
