J & S Landscaping finds the optimal potential of every yard and works to make every yard unique and reflective
of our patrons’ lifestyles and personalities. Before the landscaping process can begin, a site visit and consultation must first take place. We pay special attention to our customers needs, likes and dislikes.
This ensures that both the consulter and the prospective client are on the same page.

In addition to paying close attention to customer needs, we also make sure to use plants that will thrive in the areas we are working with. Plants that are low maintenance, drought tolerant, and contribute four seasonal interest are usually the first on every property owners list. We, however, make sure to go a step further. If a site requires water tolerant, deep shade tolerant, or deer tolerant plants, we are sure to meet those requirements as well. If there are issues with allergies, request for child / pet safe plants, we take this into consideration. Also, being aware of views from certain rooms in the house, is just as important as how the landscape will look as
you enter the property from the street.

Not all plants can be installed using the exact same method, or planted in the same soils. For example, some plants have smaller root systems which require shallow planting, while some plants need to be planted in sandier soils for optimum drainage. Our knowledge of plant physiology and our years of experience assist us in all phases of landscape design and installation. These combined skills guarantee that the landscapes we install will grow and flourish for years to come.
