Landscape Bed Installation in Vinton, VA
Beds are the fastest way to change how a house reads from the street. Sometimes that means building something new. More often it means tearing out forty years of accumulated planting and starting from a clean shape.
The problem
When a bed needs starting over
- Planting that has outgrown the space and can't be trimmed back into it
- A shape that has crept so far the original line is gone
- Six different things planted across three decades with no plan holding them together
- A house that has been repainted, re-roofed or resided while the beds stayed in 1985
The work
What we do
- Old planting cut out and root balls removed, not just cut at ground level
- Bed re-shaped to a line that suits the house rather than the old one
- Soil turned and prepped so new plants have somewhere to go
- Planted to what you pictured, then mulched to finish
How it goes
Four steps, no surprises.
We come and look
Tear-outs price on what's in the ground, and that needs eyes on it.
Agree the shape
Where the line runs matters more than what goes in it. We mark it out first.
Out and prepped
Old planting and roots removed, soil turned, edge cut.
Planted and mulched
New planting in, mulched, cleaned up. Most beds this size are a single day.
Before you call
Questions we get a lot.
How long does a bed tear-out take?
Most foundation beds are a day. The pair of photos above was shot at 8:58 in the morning and 1:57 that afternoon — same house, same day.
Do you remove the roots or just cut them off?
Roots come out. Cutting shrubs at ground level leaves you with stumps that resprout and root balls that stop anything new establishing.
Can you design it, or do I need to know what I want?
Either. Plenty of customers have a picture in their head and want it built. Others want suggestions. We'd rather make yours work than talk you into ours.
