  • How Long Does a Project Take?

    Small jobs can take just a few days. Larger installations like patios, outdoor kitchens, or retaining walls may take 1–2 weeks. You’ll receive a clear timeline during your consultation.

Artificial Turf & Lawn Care

  • Is Artificial Turf Safe for Kids and Pets?

    Yes! Our turf products are lead-free, non-toxic, and soft underfoot — ideal for kids, pets, and play.

  • How Long Does Artificial Turf Last?

    High-quality turf can last 15 to 20 years with proper care and professional installation.

  • Why Should I Aerate My Lawn?

    Aeration removes excess thatch — a layer of dead grass that can trap disease and insects. It also allows water, air, and nutrients to reach the root zone more effectively, promoting deeper root growth and a healthier lawn.

Irrigation, Planting & Seasonal Services

  • What’s the Benefit of a Sprinkler System?

    Sprinkler systems provide consistent watering on a set schedule, reducing waste and improving plant health. Unlike manual watering, they adjust for sun exposure and free you from having to water during vacations or busy weeks.

  • When Is the Best Time to Plant?

    For most trees and shrubs, spring and fall are ideal. Perennials do best in early spring, but late summer or early fall can also work depending on the plant and soil condition.

Retaining Walls & Outdoor Kitchens

  • How Do I Know If I Need a Retaining Wall?

    If your property has sloped terrain, water runoff issues, or if you want to create level zones for patios or gardens, a retaining wall can provide both structure and style.

  • What’s Included in an Outdoor Kitchen Build?

    We custom-build outdoor kitchens to fit your lifestyle, with options like grills, countertops, bars, refrigerators, sinks, pergolas, fire pits, and even entertainment walls with TVs.
