- Hardscaping: Walkways, walls, and patios that suit older architecture.

Landscaping in Birmingham: What We Actually Deal With Here
Birmingham runs along the valley beneath Red Mountain, so a few miles can take you from a steep, rocky lot in Redmont to a flat bungalow yard in Crestwood. Many homes are decades old, with mature trees, old stone walls, narrow drives, and clay soil that has been compacted for generations. The work has to respect what is already there. We size equipment to the site, protect established root zones, and look hard at drainage, because runoff from the ridge has to go somewhere.
Neighborhoods and Areas We Work In
We work throughout Jefferson and Shelby counties, including Highland Park, Forest Park, Crestwood, Avondale, Redmont and East Lake. Birmingham is about 25 minutes from our Trussville shop, which is close enough that we can hold a consistent schedule and still respond quickly when something goes wrong.
What We Get Called For Most in Birmingham
