LANDSCAPING IN COTTAGE GROVE, MN

Full-Yard Landscaping for Cottage Grove New Builds

Cottage Grove’s new-construction yards need everything at once — sod, beds, irrigation, and hardscape, phased to your move-in and backed by a year-round lawn program.

Serving Cottage Grove year-round — design and install in season, snow and ice all winter.

NORTH RIDGE IN COTTAGE GROVE

A local crew, 18 min away

Cottage Grove is full of new construction, so most projects here start the same way Lakeville’s do — a full-yard package covering sod, beds, irrigation, hardscape, and plantings, phased to match a family’s move-in date. The harder part is usually year two and three: a new lawn looks great the first summer, then weeds and bare spots creep in without a real maintenance program behind it. Around Pine Coulee and the Eagle Valley area, our year-round lawn program (mowing, fertilization, aeration, overseeding) is what keeps a new lawn looking like the day it was sodded.

FROM OUR SHOP TO COTTAGE GROVE

We know what Cottage Grove ground does in a Minnesota winter.

Cottage Grove is full of new construction, so most projects here start the same way Lakeville’s do — a full-yard package covering sod, beds, irrigation, hardscape, and plantings, phased to match a family’s move-in date. The harder part is usually year two and three: a new lawn looks great the first summer, then weeds and bare spots creep in without a real maintenance program behind it. Around Pine Coulee and the Eagle Valley area, our year-round lawn program (mowing, fertilization, aeration, overseeding) is what keeps a new lawn looking like the day it was sodded. That is not something you learn from a spec sheet — it comes from building here, season after season, and going back to the same properties year after year.

Owners on site, not a call centre

Nick and Brandon are on the properties they sell. You are talking to the people who will actually be doing the work.

Family-owned since 2010

COTTAGE GROVE QUESTIONS

Questions from Cottage Grove homeowners

That’s the normal starting point here. We design a full-yard package — sod, beds, irrigation, hardscape — phased to your move-in so you’re not living on dirt through the summer.

We’re 18 minutes from our Inver Grove Heights shop and offer same-day site visits when possible, with a written proposal within 5 business days.

With a year-round program — mowing, fertilization, aeration, and overseeding. Most new sod looks great in year one and starts thinning by year three without that maintenance behind it.

Yes — hardscape permits, retaining walls over 4 ft, and right-of-way work are all handled in-house.

Our Pine Coulee project — a 2,000 sq ft full-yard package — was a 5-week install. Most new-construction packages here still fall in our standard $8K-$25K starting range, scaling up with hardscape scope.

“They helped in the design and installation of retaining walls, a beautiful fire pit and gardens, drainage systems, patios, and they planned and planted hundreds of plants and trees. They completed every project on time and on budget, and they honored their warranty without question when we needed to repair a minor issue after the winter months.”
