Salsbury Schweyer - Akron's Top-Rated Landscapers

In Akron's climate, freeze-thaw cycles and heavy clay soils often lead to these problems. We address them from the design and construction phase by using durable, locally-suited materials for edging and hardscaping. For soil health, we employ techniques like strategic grading and using organic amendments to improve drainage and structure, which is critical for the long-term success of plantings like shrubs and trees. Our maintenance services also include monitoring and correcting these issues to protect your investment.

Yes, we provide a seamless, integrated service from concept to completion. Our unique partnership combines expert landscape design with skilled construction management. This means the team that designs your patio, pergola, or retaining wall also oversees its precise installation, ensuring the built result matches the artistic and functional vision while meeting structural requirements. This integrated approach is a cornerstone of our work for over 25 years.

Our ecological approach means we design gardens that are beautiful, sustainable, and supportive of local ecosystems. We prioritize native plants that thrive in Akron's conditions, design rain gardens to manage stormwater, and create organic edible gardens. It's about creating a resilient landscape that requires less water and chemical intervention, ultimately becoming a sanctuary that benefits both your family and the local environment.
