Winters in Manlius can bring snow early, sometimes as soon as late October, and with 100+ inches falling throughout Onondaga County each year, reliable snow plowing and removal is a must.

frequently asked questions

What should I expect during the initial consultation?

The initial consultation typically takes 1-2 visits, depending on the complexity of your project. During the consultation, we take measurements and photos while discussing your vision and outlining the big picture. Within 2-3 days, you’ll receive a detailed quote, including the contract, pricing, and the build.

How much does it cost for your custom landscape and hardscape design-build services?

Costs for custom landscape and hardscape design-build services are determined based on labor, square footage, and the materials chosen. Our average projects typically start around $5,000 and go up from there, with more complex projects reaching up to $200,000 depending on scope and customization. Common cost ranges include:

Do I need to have a specific design in mind before contacting the team?

Not at all! If you’re struggling with inspiration for your outdoor living space or landscape design and aren't sure how you want your space to look, our experienced designers can help provide some ideas to build off of and tweak from there.

Can I make changes to the design once the project has started?

Yes, changes can be made during the project. You’ll need to discuss any adjustments with your project manager before we move forward. 

What is the timeline for completing a project?

Hardscape project timelines can vary based on the scope of the project and the weather conditions, but here are some common timelines:

  • Maintenance cleanups - 1 day 
  • Drainage - 1-2 days
  • Pressure washing and resanding pavers - 2 days
  • Typical walkway patios - 1-2 weeks
  • Retaining walls - 3-5 days
  • Seawalls - 1-2 weeks

Simple projects, such as drainage and hardscaping under 100 sq ft or small step builds, typically take between 1 and 2 days to complete. More complex projects, such as large landing step builds, patios, or step builds with 4+ steps, can take up to 2 weeks to complete.

Do your hardscape and stonework projects come with a warranty?

Yes, we provide a one-year warranty on pavers and plant material installed. We also offer a warranty upgrade option for certain projects.
