We believe the space we landscape reflects the client, the land, the buildings, and the foliage that adorns it. Design is driven by a deep connection to the natural landscape and a functional practicality to meet client goals and vision. We provide end to end landscaping services including work that integrates all the factors above, and especially including a water feature as desired.  It takes time for the living elements of your landscape to mature. We help you plan for that growth. Our team will make sure things stay healthy and grow strong!

Ready to change your landscape but unsure where to start? A consultation will let you ask questions, do research, and develop a plan with us. Starting with a discussion about how you'd like to use your land, we can help conceive a design for your outdoor space to fit your aesthetic and lifestyle. We will visit your site and gather all information required to make a proper estimate and initial proposal. Sometimes this requires more than one contact. Once the decision to go forwards is made, we will draft the design, establish a project plan, a build schedule, and execute the project with your involvement and approval. We also provide onsite design and construction advice and options for landscape professionals, commercial and residential clients.

Design is the first step to a successful water feature or landscaped space. Simplicity and boldness are key while laying out the initial concept. Natural topography often determines the location of the pond and waterfalls, the paths and structures, and the foliage and vegetation. View points, scale in relation to the size of the area and buildings, and pond style plays an important role in effective design.

The success of a well constructed earth or water feature is dependent on skilled builders. Forethought and careful planning should precede the decision to construct an outdoor space with an earth or water feature. Our team at Chi Earth and Waterscape has a broad range of skills enabling us to solve any challenges that arise as we make your project happen. From shaping the land to building the right structures to controlling water flow and containment, we are a full service company. We are also able to renovate existing spaces and structures to bring all facets together to meet project goals.

We will maintain and service the project we completed for you. We believe in assuring your satisfaction in the outcomes. Over the years we have learned to anticipate certain conditions and problems to achieve a more efficient and better build process and project outcome.

For example, we have found that the largest deterrance preventing water feature construction is the notion that ponds require excessive maintenance. In truth, a properly designed pond emphasizes balance in its architecture and this will usually require less maintenance then a similar sized garden or lawn. 

Selecting the right plants and trees for the space considers the design goals, the climate and surrounds, impact on the environment, consideration of space use and purpose, and presence of animals and people in the space. For example, deer love to eat many kinds of vegetation. Choosing a deer-resistant species can be critical to success. It is also essential to consider if children or pets will be present when making choices in the project plan, as well as the aftercare plan.

We are glad to maintain your property that we helped create, but we do not provide property maintenance or gardening as a separate service if you do not have a project with us.
