Southern Style Landscape

Hardscape refers to non-living landscape elements like patios, retaining walls, walkways, and fire pits. Softscape includes living components such as trees, shrubs, hedges, sod, and mulch. We offer both services to create beautiful, functional outdoor spaces for your commercial property.

Project costs vary widely based on scope, materials, and property size. Sod installation and mulching services typically start at a few thousand dollars, while comprehensive projects involving irrigation systems, hardscaping, and extensive plantings can range from $10,000 to $100,000+. We provide detailed, transparent quotes after our initial site assessment.

Signs you may need erosion control include standing water after rain, soil washing away on slopes, water pooling near foundations, or visible erosion channels. We offer free site assessments to evaluate drainage issues and recommend appropriate solutions like French drains or retaining walls.

Our process begins with a site consultation to understand your vision, budget, and functional needs. We then create a detailed design plan that may include hardscape layouts, plant selections, irrigation planning, and lighting concepts. Once approved, our team brings your vision to life.

Absolutely. We design and install commercial landscape lighting that enhances both security and curb appeal. Our lighting solutions highlight architectural features, illuminate walkways for safety, and create an inviting atmosphere for customers and employees.

We typically recommend warm-season grasses like Bermuda, Zoysia, or Centipede for upstate South Carolina's climate. The best choice depends on your property's sun exposure, foot traffic levels, and maintenance preferences. We'll help you select the ideal variety during consultation.

Retaining walls serve multiple purposes: they prevent soil erosion on slopes, create usable flat spaces, improve drainage, and add visual interest to your landscape. They're especially valuable for properties with elevation changes or drainage challenges.

While we work year-round, spring and fall are ideal for most planting projects in South Carolina. Hardscape work like patios and walkways can be completed any season. We recommend scheduling consultations several weeks in advance to ensure timely project completion that fits your business needs.
