We prepare and landscape builder-graded yards around Birkdale Village, including beds, patios, walkways, privacy plantings and lawn leveling. We visit your property for a free on-site estimate, with no trip fee.
There is no storefront or office to visit because our crew brings the estimate and the work to you. We are across Huntersville and the other communities we serve every week, know the I-77, Sam Furr Road and Birkdale Commons Parkway area, and schedule visits so we can reach properties quickly and arrive when promised.
Birkdale Village opened in 2003 on 52 acres that had been an equine farm. The mixed-use plan places apartments above Main Street-style shops and includes offices, a movie theater and a central green.
The village has a New England-inspired, pedestrian-oriented design. Crosland and Pappas Properties were the original developers.
The surrounding development includes lots shaped during construction rather than undisturbed farm ground. That matters before planting or building because a finished lawn can hide thin topsoil over compacted Piedmont clay.
A new bed, lawn or tree depends on the ground below it. On builder-graded Huntersville lots, we check the soil, drainage and final elevation before installing the visible landscape. Compacted clay can hold water around roots in wet weather and become hard when dry. Adding plants without addressing the planting area leaves those conditions unchanged.
Hardscape planning starts the same way. A patio or walkway needs a prepared base and a grade that works with the yard. Privacy plantings need room at maturity and a bed that supports establishment. Lawn leveling should preserve a water path rather than filling a swale that carries runoff between homes.
Shapes bare or uneven ground while keeping runoff moving away from the house and through the lot.
Coordinates beds, lawn and hardscape with the property's grade instead of treating each feature separately.
Builds outdoor surfaces on a prepared base with elevations planned around doors, beds and drainage.
Prepares planting areas in compacted clay so roots are not placed straight into untouched builder soil.
Plans a property-line screen around available width, sunlight and the existing grade.
Creates defined beds with soil preparation suited to a newer or bare lot.
Smooths settled or rough areas without blocking the surface route that carries rainwater.
I-77 Exit 25 (NC-73 W / Sam Furr Rd). Coming from the south on I-77, turn left onto Sam Furr Rd; coming from the north, turn right onto Sam Furr Rd. Either way you head west, then turn right onto Birkdale Commons Pkwy.
We look at the finished grade, soil compaction, drainage paths, sunlight and how the homeowner wants to use the yard. Those observations guide bed preparation, planting locations and any hardscape elevations.
Yes. We lay out the grade and water path first, then place lawn and planting areas so the finished landscape does not block drainage or send water toward the house.
We evaluate the existing elevation and drainage, excavate for the planned section and prepare the base before placing the pavers. The surrounding grade is considered with the patio rather than after it.
