You call (667) 493-1555 or submit the contact form. We schedule a visit to your actual property — not a phone estimate, not a drive-by, not a Google Maps review from the street. We come to your yard. We assess soil type (we test, we don't just look), drainage patterns, existing plant conditions, sun and shade by season, slope, architectural character, Chesapeake Bay Critical Area regulatory status if applicable, and any permits that would be required before work begins. The assessment is free, always. No commitment required afterward. We'd rather earn your business by being straight with you than lock you in by being vague.

After the site visit, you receive a written proposal covering: exact scope of work (tasks, materials, quantities — not "landscaping services"), project timeline, fixed total cost broken down clearly, what's included and what isn't stated explicitly, and any regulatory considerations flagged upfront — Chesapeake Bay Critical Area permits, Anne Arundel County requirements, HOA approvals — before work begins, not after it's already half done. If anything is unclear, we revise until it isn't. You sign nothing until you understand everything on the page. The price in the proposal is the price on the invoice. If scope changes because something unexpected turns up (it happens — especially in drainage work where subsurface conditions aren't visible until you dig), we discuss it with you before proceeding. Never after.

When you sign, we assign a named crew lead and a start date. That date doesn't move without your knowledge and agreement. The crew that shows up is our crew — not subcontractors called the night before when our schedule changed. The crew lead knows Annapolis. They know the difference between clay drainage in Parole and water table conditions in lower Eastport. They know which plants survive Cape St. Claire's salt air and which the nursery shouldn't have sold you. They know the Critical Area buffer zones by neighborhood. This isn't someone reading from a service manual on the drive over. You don't need to take a day off to supervise. We handle permits, material deliveries, site management, and communicate proactively when anything significant changes. You hear from us. You don't chase us.

When work is complete, we walk the property with you. Not a "does it look good?" from the truck window — a real walkthrough where we show what was done, explain why specific decisions were made, identify every plant and its care requirements, show you where every drainage element discharges and what to watch for after the first significant rain events. If anything doesn't meet the standard we agreed to in the proposal, it gets fixed before we pack the truck. Not rescheduled. Fixed. You don't receive an invoice until the walkthrough is complete and you're satisfied.

We offer the Chesapeake Lawn Program (six properly-timed Zone 7a applications, all chemical applications performed by Maryland-licensed pesticide applicators in compliance with MDA requirements), seasonal cleanup contracts, and custom full maintenance agreements. You don't have to stay with us for maintenance. If you want a separate crew for weekly work and call us for technical services, we'll give you exactly what you need to maintain what we built. Most clients stay — not because we pressure them, but because a team that already knows your specific drainage system, your plant palette chosen for your neighborhood's conditions, and your irrigation timing calibrated to your soil takes better care of your property than a new crew starting from scratch every season. We're also available 24/7 for calls. Storm damage at 2 a.m. after a Chesapeake Bay weather event? That's exactly what the 24/7 availability is for.
