We start with your goals, budget range, timeline, access, and design needs. From there, we review practical options for plants, borders, mulch, rock, soil prep, and layout.
Clear scope. Realistic guidance. Professional installation.
A strong landscape installation starts before the first plant goes in. The right result depends on layout, access, soil needs, plant selection, material choices, drainage awareness, and the level of finish you want for your home. Evergreen Outdoor Services helps Houston homeowners plan and install landscapes with clear scope, practical guidance, and realistic expectations from the start.
A good installation needs more than pretty plants. We help clarify the scope, match the plan to the property, and build the project with realistic expectations from start to finish.
We start with your goals, budget range, timeline, access, and design needs. From there, we review practical options for plants, borders, mulch, rock, soil prep, and layout.
Once the scope is approved, our crew handles the prep and installation. Depending on the project, this may include removals, bed shaping, soil work, planting, stone borders, mulch, decorative rock, sod tie-ins, and finishing details.
We clean the work area, review the completed scope, and provide practical aftercare guidance so you know how to help the new landscape settle in after installation.
New or refreshed garden beds with practical plant layouts, soil preparation, mulch or rock options, and selections matched to your budget, style, and Houston conditions.
Chopped stone, border edging, and clean bed definition to help separate turf from landscape areas and give the installation a more finished, organized look.
For projects where the lawn needs to match the new landscape, our sod installation service can help reset bare, damaged, or tired turf areas with proper preparation and installation.
Decorative rock and gravel can improve low-maintenance areas, side yards, landscape beds, drainage-adjacent spaces, and outdoor sections where a cleaner finished surface is needed.
Professional mulch installation for garden beds, tree rings, seasonal refreshes, and cleaner curb appeal with proper prep, healthy coverage, and a finished landscape look.
Clear expectations, practical guidance, and a professional quote for serious landscape installation projects.
A good landscape installation is not just about adding plants. It takes clear planning, smart material choices, proper prep, and a finished look that makes sense for the property.
We start with your goals, budget range, access, sunlight, existing beds, and design direction so the project is built around realistic expectations from the beginning.
Our crews show up prepared, respect the property, and work from an approved scope so you know what is being installed, removed, refreshed, or adjusted.
A cleaner install starts before the plants go in. We address demo, bed shaping, soil needs, debris removal, grading touch-ups, and material prep based on the approved scope.
Landscape installation can get messy. We clean the work area, blow off hard surfaces, remove approved debris, and leave the finished space more organized and presentable.
Plant and material choices matter. We help match selections to the light, soil, maintenance expectations, budget, and look you want for the property.
New installations need proper follow-through. We provide practical watering and care guidance, and can recommend maintenance options if you want support after installation.
A landscape installation should make the property feel more intentional, not more complicated. Evergreen helps Houston homeowners turn empty beds, outdated layouts, or rough ideas into cleaner outdoor spaces with the right mix of plants, borders, mulch, rock, and finishing details.
A polished result starts with a clear plan and organized execution.

Patios, walkways, small extensions, and hardscape features can help connect the new landscape to how you actually use the outdoor space.
After installation, recurring bed care, shrub upkeep, mulch refreshes, and seasonal touch-ups can help keep the finished space from falling behind.
Low areas, washout, standing water, or uneven grades can affect a new installation. Some properties may need drainage or prep work before landscape upgrades make sense.
Overgrowth, debris, old bed material, or neglected areas may need to be cleared first so the new landscape installation starts from a cleaner baseline.
Some projects are ready for pricing. Others need design direction, plant guidance, or help comparing materials before an accurate scope makes sense.
Evergreen keeps the process simple by helping you choose the right first step: a complimentary estimate for ready projects, or a paid consultation when the plan needs more detail.
The right landscape plan depends on budget, drainage, plant selection, materials, and how finished you want the space to feel. These guides help you make better decisions before the project starts.

Landscape installation works best when the scope, budget, timeline, and expectations are clear before work begins. These answers help Houston homeowners understand the right starting point, what affects pricing, and when a paid consultation makes sense.
Residential landscape installation can include new garden beds, plant and shrub installation, mulch, natural stone borders, decorative rock, bed edging, soil preparation, grading touch-ups, sod tie-ins, and curb appeal upgrades.
The exact scope depends on the property, access, existing conditions, budget, and how finished you want the space to feel. If the yard needs heavy clearing first, we may recommend starting with our residential property cleanup service. If the lawn itself needs to be reset, our sod installation service may be a better fit for that portion of the project.
Yes. We can help with plant selection, layout ideas, bed shaping, border options, mulch or rock selections, and practical design direction for Houston homes.
If your project is already defined and you have a realistic budget range, a complimentary estimate may be enough. If you need deeper help with layout, plant selection, quantities, phasing, or design direction, we offer paid landscape consultations starting at $125.
Landscape installation pricing depends on bed size, demo work, access, plant selection, soil preparation, borders, mulch, rock, sod tie-ins, drainage needs, design complexity, material choices, and finish level.
Smaller front bed refreshes may be more modest, while full landscape upgrades require a more realistic budget for planning, materials, labor, prep, and finishing details. Evergreen is best suited for homeowners who value professional direction, clean execution, quality materials, and realistic expectations over the lowest possible price.
Many small to mid-sized projects, such as garden bed renovations, mulch installation, stone edging, or plant installs, are completed in about 1 to 3 working days. Larger projects involving multiple areas, sod, drainage, concrete, special materials, or detailed layout work can take longer.
Weather, material availability, access, prep work, and project changes can affect the schedule. We review the expected timeline before work begins so you understand the plan.
After you reach out, we review your project details, photos if available, budget range, timeline, service area, and decision-making needs. If the project is clearly defined and you are planning to move forward soon, we can usually guide you through the estimate process.
For more detailed projects, we may recommend a paid consultation or property visit so we can review layout, access, plant selection, drainage, materials, and phasing before preparing a proposal. You can also review our Houston service areas page to see whether your property is within a good fit area for landscape installation.
After a property visit, many estimates are returned within 48 business hours. Larger scopes, complex designs, specialty materials, or peak seasonal demand may require up to 7 business days.
Yes. We can review visible drainage, grading, and watering concerns during the planning process. Low spots, runoff, poor sprinkler coverage, washout, and standing water can affect new plants, beds, mulch, sod, and long-term maintenance.
Some drainage work may be quoted separately through our excavation and drainage services. Irrigation repairs, sprinkler adjustments, or specialty water management may also require separate approval depending on the issue.
Yes. Not every landscape needs a full tear-out. If the existing beds, borders, plants, or layout still have good structure, we can often improve the space with selective upgrades instead of rebuilding everything from scratch.
Depending on the property, that may include new plants, mulch, decorative rock, edging, stone borders, bed reshaping, soil improvements, selective removals, pruning, or better material coordination. If your project touches several areas, you can also review our Evergreen Services in Houston page to compare related options before choosing the right next step.
New landscapes need consistent watering, observation, weed control, and seasonal upkeep after installation. We provide practical aftercare guidance based on the project, plant material, and time of year.
If you want support after the installation is complete, our residential landscape maintenance service can help with garden bed upkeep, shrub trimming, mulch refreshes, and recurring detail work.
Clear scope. Smart selections. Professional installation.
