Tim Murphy Landscaping - Cicero's Professional Landscaping

Absolutely. Standing water is a common issue in our local soil conditions and can damage your landscape and foundation. We address this through strategic grading, trenching for French drains, and incorporating proper slope into our patio and walkway installations. Our excavation services allow us to create effective subsurface drainage systems that redirect water away from your home, solving the problem at its source while integrating seamlessly with your new hardscape design.

Our custom 3D design service allows you to visualize your project before construction begins. We start with a detailed consultation at your home to discuss your ideas and assess the space. Using specialized software, we then create a realistic, three-dimensional model of your proposed patio, outdoor kitchen, or other hardscape feature. This lets you see different material options from our Cambridge and Techo-bloc suppliers, experiment with layouts, and make confident decisions, ensuring the final build perfectly matches your vision and budget.

While our core expertise is in exterior landscape construction—such as retaining walls, patio seat walls, and outdoor kitchen enclosures—we focus on hardscaping elements that are integral to your outdoor living space. For primary structural walls that are part of a home's core architecture (like interior or exterior load-bearing walls for a building addition), we recommend consulting with a licensed general contractor. We often collaborate with such contractors to ensure our landscaping and hardscaping work complements the overall structural project seamlessly.
