The Benefits of Design/Build

EARTHSCAPES has a distinct advantage over most other contractors in the area, because we offer in-house design, installation and maintenance services, all of which are strong enough to stand alone, but work well together to offer customers the benefit of a Full-Service Landscape company. The cooperation of all divisions aids everyone, including the customer, by saving them time and money and ensuring the project flows smoothly from one process to the next. Our installation team understands the design intentions and knows how to construct the project assuring that those design intentions are met. When the installation is completed, our highly skilled maintenance team takes over the project and continues keeping the design intentions alive. Because of their knowledge of the design they understand the functional aspects of the project and know how to maintain your property to the highest standards, meeting the original design intentions.

Another important advantage is our many years of combined experience creating a wide variety of projects ranging from the small ordinary to the larger extraordinary projects. Our dedicated team of employees is committed to helping you with whatever landscaping project you might have.
