front yard makeover Stonegate Gardens

Your outdoor space should be as individual as you are. Our custom landscape design service begins with a one-on-one consultation where we listen to your ideas, assess your property’s unique characteristics—sun exposure, soil type, drainage—and discuss how you want to use the space. Whether you need a tranquil retreat for morning coffee, a play-friendly backyard for kids and pets, or an entertainment hub with a fire pit and outdoor kitchen, we design every element to fit your lifestyle.

Our designers blend horticultural science with artistic flair, selecting plants that thrive in Stonegate Gardens’s climate while providing year-round color and texture. We create detailed plans that include hardscape features like walkways, patios, retaining walls, and architectural elements such as pergolas or custom gates. Throughout the process, you’ll see 3D renderings and plant palettes, so there are no surprises. Once you approve the design, our installation team brings it to life with meticulous craftsmanship.

What sets Stonegate Gardens apart is our commitment to sustainability and budget transparency. We recommend drought-tolerant perennials and native shrubs to reduce water usage, and we’ll help you prioritize elements to get the biggest impact for your investment. From a cozy courtyard to a sprawling English garden, we turn your landscape dreams into a living, breathing reality. Plus, we offer maintenance packages to keep your garden picture-perfect all year—so you can enjoy the beauty without the work.

A stunning garden doesn’t happen by accident—it requires regular, expert care. Stonegate Gardens’ maintenance services take the guesswork and labor out of keeping your landscape lush and healthy. We offer customizable plans that include weeding, mulching, fertilizing, pruning, dead-heading, watering adjustments, and seasonal cleanups. Our team also monitors for pests and diseases, intervening early to protect your plants.

For clients who want a truly hands-off experience, we provide full-service maintenance where we visit weekly or bi-weekly to handle everything. We also offer specialized services like ornamental grass trimming, bulb planting in spring and fall, and winterization to protect tender perennials. If you have water features, we’ll clean and balance them; if you have signature planters, we’ll refresh them seasonally to keep interest year-round.

Why trust us? We’ve been nurturing gardens in Stonegate Gardens for over two decades. We know the local soil, the microclimates, and which plants struggle in July heat or February freezes. Our maintenance isn’t just about tidiness—it’s about promoting long-term health and vigor. You’ll see fuller blooms, richer foliage, and fewer replacements over time. And for busy homeowners or those without a green thumb, we offer peace of mind. Your garden will always look its best, whether you’re hosting a weekend barbecue or just enjoying a quiet evening outdoors.

The backbone of any great landscape is its hardscape—walkways, patios, retaining walls, fire features, and structures that define how you move through and use your outdoor space. At Stonegate Gardens, we design and install hardscapes that are both beautiful and durable, using natural stone, pavers, brick, and concrete to complement your home’s architecture. From a sweeping flagstone path to a multi-level patio with a built-in fire pit, we create inviting spaces that extend your living area outdoors.

Water features add a new dimension to your garden: the gentle sound of a fountain, the sparkle of a reflecting pool, or the drama of a cascading waterfall. We specialize in custom water features that fit any scale, from a small self-contained urn fountain for a courtyard to a large pondless waterfall that becomes the focal point of your backyard. Our designs integrate seamlessly with your planting scheme, using stone and aquatic plants to make the feature look natural, not added-on.

Beyond aesthetics, we build for longevity. Our hardscapes are properly excavated, compacted, and drained to prevent settling or cracking over time. Water features are installed with energy-efficient pumps and easy-access cleanouts for maintenance. Whether you want a Tuscan-inspired potager garden with gravel paths, a modern courtyard with a sleek water wall, or a family-friendly backyard with a meandering stream, we handle all permitting, material sourcing, and construction. The result is a landscape that feels complete, functional, and effortlessly elegant—no matter the season.
