Design, planting and paver installation that changes what your property is — not just how often it gets mowed.
This is the “& Design” half of our name. Every project starts the same way: we walk the property with you, talk about how you actually use it — and how you want to — then come back with a plan you can see before anything is dug. From there we build. Beds get shaped and planted with material chosen for the light and soil they’re actually going into. Patios and walkways get a compacted aggregate base and proper edge restraint, because in Ohio the base is the whole job — it’s what decides whether your patio is still flat after five freeze-thaw cycles. We do the design, we do the install, and we’re still here to maintain it afterward.
Small refresh or full redesign, the process doesn’t change — you’ll know the scope, the material and the price before we start.
Our landscaping and hardscaping services include:
Everything below is designed, installed and maintained by our own crews — so the people who planted it are the people who know how to keep it alive.
A plan for the whole property before a shovel moves — layout, material and plant selection you can approve up front.
Built on a compacted base with proper edge restraint, so the surface stays level through Ohio freeze-thaw.
Engineered for drainage and load, not just stacked — walls that hold their grade and their line.
Trees, shrubs and perennials chosen for the light, soil and space they’re actually going into.
Installed at proper depth for moisture retention and weed suppression, with clean, defined edges.
Overgrown beds cut back, perennials split and replanted, borders redefined — a full reset without a full redesign.
Feeding, pruning and pest monitoring to keep established plantings healthy and in shape.
Path, uplight and accent fixtures that extend the usable hours of the space and make the house look good after dark.
Whether it’s a weekly mow you never have to think about, a paver patio built to last decades, or a driveway cleared before you leave for work — Down To Earth handles it. Tell us about your property and we’ll walk it with you, free.
