Common Questions
We're dealing with persistent weeds and overgrown shrubs in our Wake Forest yard. Can you help beyond just basic cleanup?
Absolutely. We tackle the root of the problem, not just the symptoms. For overgrown shrubs, we provide expert pruning, removal, or transplanting services to restore order and plant health. To combat weeds long-term, we focus on proper land grading and soil preparation. By improving drainage and compaction, we create a less hospitable environment for weeds to take hold. For lasting results, we can install low-maintenance solutions like artificial turf or design a new landscape with hardy, appropriate plantings that naturally resist weed infestation.
What's involved in your full site work process, from a wooded lot to a build-ready homesite?
Our full-site service is a complete turnkey solution. We start with professional land clearing, carefully removing trees, stumps, and debris. Next, we perform precise land grading and earthmoving to establish the correct slope for drainage and foundation work. This phase is crucial for erosion control and storm water diversion. We then prepare the construction site, which includes soil backfilling, compaction, and often the installation of a gravel or paved driveway for access. For many projects, we also handle the critical step of septic system installation, ensuring all utilities and site work are coordinated properly.
Do you handle both the hardscaping and landscaping for a backyard renovation?
Yes, we provide a seamless integration of both. Our construction team handles the hardscaping—building durable retaining walls, patios, walkways, and outdoor structures like pergolas or kitchens. Concurrently, our landscape design and installation experts work on the softscaping: grading planting beds, installing irrigation systems for efficiency, and planting trees and shrubs suited to our local climate. This coordinated approach ensures your new driveway, patio, or outdoor living space is complemented by a healthy, designed landscape, all managed by one local team.
