Questions and Answers

What does a 'full-service' landscape company mean for my Fargo home project?

As a full-service design/build firm, Signature Landscapes manages your entire project from start to finish in the Fargo area. Owner and NDSU graduate Ryan Aakre begins with a custom design based on your vision and our local expertise. Our team then handles all construction—from earthmoving and patio installation to building retaining walls and irrigation systems. Finally, we offer ongoing maintenance to keep your new landscape thriving through our seasons. This integrated approach ensures cohesive results, saves you time coordinating multiple contractors, and provides a single point of accountability.

My shrubs in Fargo keep dying, and my mulch beds are full of weeds. Can you help?

Absolutely. These are common challenges in our region. For dying shrubs, we provide a thorough assessment to diagnose issues like improper planting depth, soil conditions, winter damage, or disease—all common here. Our care includes corrective pruning, soil amendments, and our specialized shrub disease and insect management services. For weed-filled mulch beds, our maintenance program includes proper bed edging, replenishing mulch to the correct depth to suppress weeds, and targeted manual or safe herbicide treatments. We focus on long-term health to reduce these recurring problems.

Do you handle both the design and construction of hardscape features like patios and walkways?

Yes, we do. As a licensed landscape architect, Ryan Aakre creates custom designs that thoughtfully integrate patios, walkways, driveways, and retaining walls with your home's architecture and the yard's natural flow. Our own construction crew then executes that design, ensuring the finished product matches the planned vision with precision. We handle all aspects of construction, including proper grading, base preparation, and installation with quality materials suited for North Dakota's freeze-thaw cycles. This design-build control is key to delivering durable, beautiful hardscapes that last.
