Small projects are welcome
From one-day jobs to $10,000–$25,000 projects, small landscaping work is a big part of what we do. Nobody should feel their project is too small to call about.

What we mean by a small project
- New front steps or a walkway
- A porch overlay: natural stone, porcelain or pavers over a tired concrete porch and steps
- A small patio, or more room on the one you have
- A fire table or fire pit area (gas lines by licensed fitters we manage)
- Landscape lighting for the walk, the steps or the garden
- New planting or a garden facelift
- A low retaining wall
Not sure if yours fits? Call or send the form. We’d love to hear about it.
Same team, same care
Your job gets the same crew, the same base and drainage work, and the same guarantee as any other we build.
It starts the same way too: a free discovery meeting at your place, and a rough range before we leave. For most small jobs, the next step is a written scope and a fixed price.
Start small, add later
Plenty of our clients build in stages. At The Back Bar, the owners came back a year later for the outdoor kitchen. Escape Plan was built in phases over four seasons. Clients from 15 and more years ago regularly come back for their next project.
Do first: drainage, grading and anything that goes underground. It’s the hardest part to change once a patio is on top.
Can wait: lighting, planting and structures.
We plan the whole yard once, so each stage fits the next.
Common questions
- Will you really take a small job?
- Yes. One- and two-day jobs and $10,000–$25,000 projects are a real, valued part of our work.
- Is it worth hiring a landscaper for a small job?
- On a walkway, steps or a patio, what lasts is what’s underneath: the base, the drainage and the edges. That’s the part we don’t skip, whatever the size.
- Do I need a design first?
- Usually not. For most small jobs we write up the scope and a fixed price after the visit. Sometimes a sketch helps.
- What will it cost?
- We give you a rough budget range at the free discovery meeting.
- How soon can you start?
- It depends on the job, the season and our bookings. We give you a date once the scope is set.
- Can I build my yard in stages?
- Yes. Do the underground work first, then add the rest as your budget allows. Many of our clients come back for the next stage.
