Common Questions
We have persistent standing water in our Lansdale yard. What solutions can MGM Landscape Design provide?
Standing water and soil compaction are common challenges in our local area. We address these issues with a science-based approach, starting with a site analysis to identify drainage problems and soil conditions. Solutions can include strategic grading, installing French drains or dry wells, and using permeable pavers for hardscapes to improve water infiltration. For compacted soil, we employ techniques like core aeration and amend the soil to promote healthy root growth and proper drainage, creating a landscape that is both beautiful and functional year-round.
What is your process for designing and building a custom patio or outdoor living space?
Our process begins with a consultation to understand your vision, usage needs, and budget. Leveraging Michael’s background in environmental design, we create a detailed plan that considers the site’s topography, sun exposure, and drainage. For construction, we specialize in hardscapes using natural stone, brick, and high-quality pavers, ensuring proper base preparation and installation techniques for longevity. We manage the entire project from design through installation, including any necessary masonry work, electrical for lighting, and complementary landscaping, resulting in a cohesive and durable outdoor space built to last.
Can you handle both the landscape design and the construction of a new home or addition?
Yes, absolutely. Our unique strength is offering integrated design-build services. With expertise spanning from landscape architecture to full-scale construction and framing, we can seamlessly manage your entire project. This means the landscape design is considered alongside the home’s architecture from the start, ensuring harmony between the structure and its surroundings. We handle everything from the foundation and exterior walls to the final hardscaping and planting, providing single-source accountability and a unified vision for your new home, addition, or ADU.
