From updating walkways and planting beds to maintaining lawns, irrigation, and lighting, North Ridge Outdoor Services works with the mature trees and existing features that give South St. Paul properties their character.
Serving South St Paul year-round — design and install in season, snow and ice all winter.
South St. Paul’s mature tree canopy shapes how much of the yard needs landscaping, especially around root systems, shaded areas, and older walkways and planting beds. Our crew works with those existing conditions to refresh outdoor spaces while protecting the features that already give the property its character.

“These guys showed up and cleared up my path from the shed to the house and laid down some gravel, then brought in huge cut sandstone boulders that look great. They then made a unique path through our decorative rock to the back door. It looks great and they cleaned up perfectly afterwards. I’d hire them again in a second for our next project in the spring!” — Frank R., South St Paul

No — we design around them. No tilling or compaction near drip lines, and we choose shade-tolerant plants instead of forcing a full-sun palette into a shaded yard.
We’re only 6 minutes from our shop, so same-day site visits are easy and smaller projects often start within a week.
Entry-garden refreshes — updated beds, a new walkway, and accent lighting. It’s a smaller-scope, faster-turnaround project than a full backyard build.
Yes — hardscape permits, retaining walls over 4 ft, and right-of-way work are all handled in-house.
Our Concord project — a 180 sq ft walkway and planting refresh — was a 1-week install. Entry-garden refreshes like this usually land below our standard $8K-$25K range since they’re front-yard-only — ask for a free estimate and we’ll size it to your project.
These reviews reflect what matters long after the project is complete: outdoor spaces homeowners are happy with, a crew they feel comfortable having on their property, and dependable service that gives them a reason to call North Ridge Outdoor Services again for future work.

“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.”
