Landscaping in Cumberland, Maine

Residential landscaping in Cumberland — design, plantings, hydroseeding and seasonal cleanups by one local crew.

Landscaping, in detail.

In Cumberland, Maine, landscaping means the whole property — design, plantings, hydroseeding, seasonal cleanups and the hardscape that ties it together — done by one insured local crew. We are not a weekly residential mowing service. We build and renovate landscapes that look better in year three than the day we left.

What We Build

  1. 1

    Design & Outdoor Living

    Plantings, patios, walls, grading and drainage planned as one project before the first shovel. Same company designs and installs, so nothing gets lost between the drawing and the dirt.

  2. 2

    Plantings, Lawns & Hydroseeding

    Foundation beds, perennial gardens and new lawns from bare ground. We grade, loam and establish turf the way the site allows — hydroseed for large areas, sod when you cannot wait a season.

  3. 3

    Seasonal Cleanups — Not Weekly Mowing

    Spring and fall cleanups, leaf removal, bed cut-backs and the landscape work homeowners actually hire us for. Our mowing routes are commercial; residential clients come to us for builds, plantings and cleanups.

Why Expert Lawn & Landscape

Local crew. No shortcuts on Landscaping.

Own crew. Own equipment.

A real shop in Cumberland with real equipment — not a truck and a trailer. One crew takes your project from raw ground to finished, with no subcontractor handoffs.

Priced straight.

We walk your property and price the job straight — no pressure, no vague allowances, and free estimates on every job.

Guaranteed to hold its lines.

Every base is excavated, compacted and pitched for drainage before a stone is set or a seed goes down, so the work looks the same in January as it did in June.

Questions

Straight answers.

Do you mow residential lawns?

Our weekly mowing routes are built around commercial properties. For homeowners we focus on landscaping — design, plantings, hydroseeding, hardscape and seasonal cleanups — rather than a weekly residential mow.

What does a landscaping project include?

Whatever the property needs as one job: a design if you want one, plantings, new lawn, patio or wall, and the grade and drainage underneath. We will walk the site and tell you what should be one project and what can wait.

How much does landscaping cost in Maine?

Typical residential projects in Greater Portland land between $3,500 and $15,000. A single planting bed sits at the low end; a design-build with patio and lawn sits higher. We price after the walk, not from a photo.

Do you hydroseed new lawns?

Yes. Hydroseeding is the usual way we establish large lawns and disturbed ground after a septic or excavation job. Sod is the option when you need a usable lawn in a week.

Can you take over a yard another company started?

Yes. We will walk what is already in the ground, flag what is failing, and finish or redo the work so it holds through a Maine winter.
