Landscape Design in Verona & Madison, WI
A real plan before anything gets built, so the finished yard works the way you pictured it.
Design comes before installation for a reason. We plan the layout, plant selection, and hardscape placement around your site’s actual sun, soil, and drainage, so what gets built matches what you asked for and holds up over time.

Want a plan before the work starts?
Changes on paper cost nothing. The same changes discovered mid-construction get paid for twice.
Why Skipping Design Costs More Later
Jumping straight to installation without a real plan usually means paying for changes twice.
That shows up as:
- Plant placement or hardscape layout that doesn't account for how the space is used day to day
- Drainage problems discovered during construction that a design phase would have caught
- Materials or layouts that don't work together because they were decided separately
- A finished yard that technically has everything you asked for, but doesn't feel cohesive
A design phase is where all of that gets caught, on paper, while changing your mind is still free. Layout, materials, and drainage decided together rather than separately, and checked against how you'll actually use the space. It's the cheapest part of the project and the one that determines whether the expensive parts work.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. We provide free, no-obligation estimates for all landscaping and hardscaping projects. We'll visit your property, discuss your vision, and provide a detailed quote within 5-10 business days.
What's the difference between landscaping and hardscaping?
Landscaping covers the living elements of your outdoor space — lawns, plants, trees, mulch, and irrigation. Hardscaping refers to the non-living, structural elements like patios, retaining walls, walkways, fire pits, and outdoor kitchens. We handle both, so we can design a space that blends greenery with durable structure.
How long does a typical project take?
Timelines vary by project size and scope. A basic garden bed refresh might take a day, while a full patio or retaining wall installation can take days/weeks. We'll give you a specific timeline estimate before work begins.
Do I need a permit for hardscaping work?
Some projects — like retaining walls over a certain height, fire features, or structures near property lines — may require a permit depending on local regulations. We handle the permitting process for projects that need it, so you don't have to navigate it yourself.
What's included in the price of my quote?
Our quotes typically include materials, labor, equipment, and cleanup. Any additional costs (like permit fees or unexpected site conditions such as poor soil or drainage issues) will be discussed with you before we proceed.
Do you offer maintenance after the project is complete?
Yes. We offer ongoing maintenance plans for lawns, plant beds, and hardscape upkeep (like re-sanding pavers or sealing stone) to keep your investment looking great year-round.
What forms of payment do you accept, and do you require a deposit?
We accept cash, check, credit card. Most projects require a deposit to secure your spot on our schedule, with the remaining balance due upon completion.
What time of year is best to start a landscaping or hardscaping project?
While hardscaping (patios, walls, walkways) can often be done nearly year-round depending on weather, spring and fall are ideal for planting and lawn work. We recommend booking early, since our schedule fills up fast during peak seasons.
