Landscaping Company in Cary, NC

A lot of Cary homes sit inside an HOA, and most HOAs want to see plans before a patio, wall or new bed goes in. That review can stall a project for weeks when the drawing is vague.

We work as a landscape design company and an install crew, so the plan you send to the architectural committee is the plan we build. Our landscape design work covers layout, materials and plant choices, the details a review board asks about.

Cary is not one kind of yard. Preston has golf course lots with big lawns facing the fairways. Lochmere wraps around its lakes, so backyards slope toward the water. Out west, Cary has grown across the Chatham County line, and those newer lots come with thin topsoil and young trees.

We look at where your house sits before we suggest anything. A plan for a Lochmere slope makes no sense in a flat new backyard off Green Level Church Road.

Water costs real money in Cary, and a badly zoned sprinkler system wastes it on driveways and sidewalks. We design irrigation systems into new lawns and beds, with zones split by sun and plant type so the fescue gets more and the shrubs get less.

Drip lines in the beds. Rotors on the lawn. Heads that hit grass, not concrete.

Entrances, medians, pool areas and pond edges set the tone for a whole neighborhood. Our HOA landscaping contracts cover community mowing, shrub trimming, flower bed installation and irrigation oversight, with one point of contact who answers email. Boards get one standard every visit, not a different result each week.

New construction in west Cary often closes with a lawn that is mostly straw and subsoil. We regrade, loosen the clay and lay new sod so it roots before the first summer. Slope sodding holds banks that would wash out otherwise, and we set the watering schedule with you before we leave.

The builder walkway is usually a strip of plain concrete running straight from the driveway to the door. We replace it with brick paver or natural stone walkways that curve with the beds, or add stepping stone paths through the side yard. Small job. Big change from the street.

Good outdoor lighting does two things: it makes the house look finished after dark, and it keeps people from missing a step. We install LED path lights, uplighting on trees and the facade, and soft light around patios and beds. Color-changing fixtures are an option too, if your HOA allows them.

Cary takes its lawns seriously. We run weekly mowing and edging, fertilization and weed control through the season, and rotate seasonal color in front beds and entrances so they never sit empty. As a lawn and landscaping company, we handle the weekly work and the bigger projects, so you are not juggling two vendors.

Every estimate is free, and the written quote comes back within 24 hours. Every project carries a one-year material and labor warranty. We are fully licensed and insured, rated A+ by the BBB and 4.9 stars on Google. Seniors, military members and first responders get a discount, and our crews speak English and Spanish.

Plenty of landscaping contractors work in Cary. We have been run by the same family since 1997, with the same office number on the trucks the whole time, which makes us a landscaping company Cary homeowners can still find next year.
