What Earthscape Lawn & Garden does.

If you can dream it, we can design, build and maintain it.

From the smallest residential oasis, to the grandest Corporate Headquarters.

EARTHSCAPES began life in Lansdale PA, at Dacota Landscape and Lawn Care. The business was started by my brother Daniel and I and it quickly grew to over a million dollars in sales and 40+ seasonal employees. If you want more information about how all that happened you can see my full Biography to fill in the blanks.

Over those early years, I learned a lot about business and the industry of landscaping. I went back to school at Temple University at their Ambler, PA campus where I studied to become a landscape architect. Unfortunately, the demands of the business prevented me from completing that degree, and I hired landscape architects instead to perform the drawing functions under my direction.

Today, I run a much smaller operation, and complete all design work and estimate work myself. Over time, I realized that this was a part of the business that I really loved, and I was no longer willing to tend to accounting, while other folks got to have all the fun.

LANDSCAPE CONSTRUCTION

Turn your idea into a lasting reality, using our 30 years of experience in the industry.

EARTHSCAPES knows, this is where the rubber hits the road. Anyone can draw a pretty design: but do you have what it takes to make it a reality? Will the things you install endure and florish in that environment? Will your landscape suit your long term needs? Will it grow with you? Will it be too much for you to maintain?

If you don't build, taking into consideration all these factors, even the best design will soon be obsolete or unmanagable.

Scroll through these photos from this installation from the above featured design.
Can you envision some of these features at your place?

Backyard oasis

This backyard started as a vast open dirt field, and became this series of outdoor "rooms".

Welcoming Entrance

Front yard landscaping should be easy to use, inviting, and a cheerful welcome to your home.

Creative paving solutions

We knew we had a lot of different areas to build, we used pavers to unify all areas and unite the design.

Functional & inviting

From the driveway, this design quickly shows visitors how to interact with the yard, while considering practical things like piling snow during snow events.

Layers of interest

Upper patio landings, Decks, lower patios and secret hot tub areas all provide a new level of interest at each location.

Easy Access

Making a user friendly landscape design means making each area lovely and convenient to access.

Still under construction

Steps and railings are still not complete in this shot, but you can see this building phase is nearing completion.

Paver "Quilting"

By thoughtful planning of paving design, you can make any space more interesting. Here we continued the "walkway" through the patio to make it far more interesting.

Playful touches

Pavers installed here, as if the rocks might have "grown up" through the pavers. Just something fun to add to keep it interesting.

Purpose built

At the end of the paving, was build a smallish, square patio area to accommodate the owners plan for a hot tub.

MAINTENANCE

There is a saying in the landscape industry:
"The maintenance contractor is the ultimate designer."
...think about it.

EARTHSCAPES would like to take this opportunity to remind anyone reading this, that there is no "maintenance free" landscape installations. Even a rock has some maintenance from time to time. That being said, we'd like design and build our landscapes to be as maintenance free as possible, or at least arm you with the facts, if you choose to build something that requires a higher level of maintenance.

We'd also like to be the people you call when that inevitable day comes when your installation (regardless of who built it) needs a little tender loving care. From mulch to pruning to solutions that require deeper planning - we'd like to be the company you call.

Here are two photos of the same place after just a little maintenance and some TLC:

WE CAN TREAT YOUR TURF BETTER AND CHEAPER THAN YOU CAN TREAT YOUR TURF.

With a statement like that, why would you EVER consider doing it yourself, or letting some other more expensive company treat your yard? We are locally owned and operated, efficient, with 30+ years of experience in the field and not controlled by a franchise.

BUSNIESS PHILOSOPHY

EARTHSCAPES is committed to Integrated Pest Management (I.P.M.) This is the part of the business that has to do with beautiful lawns. We believe that by using proper practices, we can increase the value and enjoyment of your property, while being the best possible environmental stewards.

We have the equipment to get the job done.

Honesty

Earthscapes plan is a little unconventional. We'd like to think it's a little more "honest" than a lot of other plans out there. Instead of loading up your lawn with nitrogen in the spring (which causes a lot of growth) we prefer to apply most of our nitrogen in the Fall. This might not be as good for business (because we can't then sell you dethatching and fungicide treatments) but it's a hell of a lot better on your lawn and on our relationship with you: our client.

Methodolgy

This practice outlined above is called "back-loading" and it makes a lot of sense in Pennsylvania. And so do a lot of other "non-chemical" operations like Aeration and overseeding. Earthscape stays fluent in all the latest and greatest technology and practices, so we can formulate the best program possible and keep our clients informed in regard to why we do, what we do. Click to see our new "Silver PLUS" program offering. By adding this option to our application options, we've allowed customers to modify their plans to more directly address their specific needs without necessarily raising any prices for clients not needing additional serices. And we do that, because it's the right way to do business.

Or, you can create your own completely custom program. We provide some standard programs to assist in goals, budget and outcomes.
