Questions and Answers
How does Rice's address common drainage and standing water problems in Canton yards?
Our landscape design and construction services specifically tackle Stark County's drainage challenges. We assess your property's grading and can design and install solutions like French drains, regrading, or permeable hardscaping for patios and walkways to redirect water away from your home and foundation. This is often integrated with our retaining wall and greenscape construction to create a beautiful, functional landscape that solves water issues at the source.
What does your estate landscape management service include?
Our estate management provides comprehensive, ongoing care for larger residential properties in Northeast Ohio. This includes scheduled shrub care (pruning, disease/insect management, and transplanting), seasonal landscape maintenance, irrigation system monitoring and repair, and snow removal. It's a proactive plan, drawing on our 28-acre garden center and tree farm resources, designed to preserve and enhance your investment year-round with consistent, expert attention.
Do you handle both the design and construction of outdoor projects?
Yes, we offer a seamless, start-to-finish service. Our licensed landscape architects and designers create a custom plan based on your vision. Then, our in-house construction team—the same people you work with during design—handles the installation. This includes everything from patios, walkways, and retaining walls to full landscape construction and irrigation system installation. This integrated approach ensures the final result matches the design and is built to our high standards.
