Twin Cities, St. Paul, MN Landscape Contractor as Design, Installer Service

We specialize in the design and installation of Low Maintenance Landscapes including Pavers, Retaining Walls and Drainage Correction
Landscape lighting is a specialty; we will make your landscape cable ready, or provide a full install.
Much of our work includes a variety of drainage techniques mixed with planters.
Surface drainage is an important part of the landscape design.

Hardscapes
Hardscapes include a combination of paver patio and walks with decorative free standing walls usually alongside perennial planters and hedging. Draining larger hardscapes into rain gardens whenever possible is good practice.
Free Standing Walls provide a decorative look along with functional sitting, privacy, and are a great and useful addition to any new or existing patio area.
Among our specialties is the installation of paver steps. These are usually pavers secured to retaining wall block steps as a base.
We use a variety of decorative concrete materials including Pine Hall Brick clay pavers, Borgert and Willow Creek Paver Products, VERSA-LOK retaining wall block, Anchor, Keystone and County Concrete. Our service area includes the east Twin Cities, Saint Paul and Eastern suburbs.

Pavers provide an attractive and low maintenance surface along with good drainage. See our paver calculator at Paver Materials Calculator

VERSA-LOK Retaining wall block provides a strong and flexible design for both decorative and functional walls. Free standing walls provide an upgrade look and visual barrier to any landscape and patio area. Capping free standing walls using Indiana Limestone is a nice upgrade over wall caps. See our VERSA-LOK retaining wall calculator at Retaining Wall Materials Calculator

Drainage

We have refined drainage correction skills and employ a variety of solutions. We install drain tile. Our drainage correction material provides a second layer of defense along with a graded area topped with 2 layers poly and landscape rock. A French Drain provides an enhanced environment for drain tile and can be visually appealing in the landscape.

The installation of a rain garden or holding pond is a great way to keep some of the run off allowing water to percolate into the ground. We install decorative rain gardens. Dry stream beds can also collect allot of water from runoff.

Lighting

Landscape Lighting, Seasonal, Holiday and Christmas Lighting, Install and Sales

Low voltage landscape lighting provides both attractive and useful lighting, along with security features when combined with motion detectors.

We install low voltage landscape lights that are dimmable, respond to motion, wireless remotes, indoor and outdoor switches, in combination with photo sensors and timers.
Our lighting installs can be integrated with X10 and INSTEON home automation devices. We specialize in smart yard installs and even manufacture our own smart light controller.
Smart lights provide excellent security features along with energy saving installations.

Holiday Lights Sales, Christmas Lights, Installation and Sales

Seasonal lighting installs are provided October through December. Call early for holiday lighting information. We carry only the highest quality light strings including LED lamps. LED lamps provide light with 1/7th the watts as incandescent.
