Our Landscape Installation Process

 

Step 1: Site Preparation

Before any planting or construction begins, we prepare your property for installation. This includes clearing the area, grading soil for proper drainage, and removing any debris or existing vegetation that isn’t part of the new plan. Proper site prep is the foundation of a landscape that stays healthy and looks great for years.

Step 2: Planting Installation

Our crew installs trees, shrubs, flowers, and ground cover according to the approved design layout. We dig to the correct depth for each plant species, amend soil where needed, and position each plant for optimal sun exposure and spacing. Every planting is watered in thoroughly and checked for stability before we move on.

Step 3: Hardscape Construction

For projects that include patios, walkways, retaining walls, or other hardscape elements, we complete this phase with attention to both aesthetics and structural integrity. Our team ensures proper base preparation, correct material installation, and clean finished edges that complement the surrounding landscape.

Step 4: Irrigation Setup

Water is critical to the success of any new landscape. Where needed, we install or adjust irrigation systems to ensure your new plantings receive consistent moisture during the establishment period. We configure zones and scheduling to reduce water waste while keeping plants healthy through Middle Tennessee’s variable seasons.

Step 5: Final Grooming & Walkthrough

Once installation is complete, we mulch all planting beds, trim any rough edges, clean up the work site, and give the entire project a final inspection. We walk through the finished landscape with you to confirm everything matches the design plan and meets your expectations before we leave.

Landscape Installation FAQs

How long does landscape installation take?

Most residential landscape installation projects are completed within two to five days, depending on the size of the property and the scope of the project. Larger jobs involving both planting and hardscape elements — such as a full backyard renovation with a patio and retaining wall — may take one to two weeks. We provide a clear project timeline during your consultation so you know what to expect.

What is the best time of year to install a landscape in Murfreesboro, TN?

Spring and fall are the ideal planting seasons in Middle Tennessee. Cooler temperatures and higher rainfall during these periods allow newly installed plants to establish strong root systems before the stress of summer heat or winter cold. That said, our team can install landscapes year-round with proper care and irrigation planning.

Do I need a design before you can begin installation?

Not necessarily. If you already have a plan you’d like us to execute, we can work from your existing design. However, if you don’t have a formal plan, we recommend starting with our landscape design services. Having a detailed layout ensures the installation goes smoothly, avoids costly changes mid-project, and gives you a clear picture of what your finished landscape will look like.

Can you install landscaping around existing hardscapes or structures?

Yes — this is a common request. We work around existing driveways, fences, patios, and foundation plantings regularly. During site assessment, we document existing features and design the installation to complement or work alongside them. If any existing elements need to be adjusted or removed, we discuss that with you in advance.

Do you offer ongoing maintenance after installation?

Yes. Elite Lawn & Landscape provides a full range of lawn care and property maintenance services, including mulching, shrub trimming, and lawn mowing. Many of our installation clients continue working with us to maintain their landscape throughout the year, ensuring their investment stays healthy and looking its best.
