Written hardscape warranty
Years building Twin Cities yards
South-metro communities served
Bundled work shares mobilisation and design time, so it costs less than booking each one separately.
Sleeve the wiring while the hardscape is open and the lighting install costs a fraction of retrofitting it later.
15-YR FIXTURE WARRANTY
New plantings establish far better on a properly zoned system than on a hose and good intentions.
ZONED FOR YOUR SOIL
Keep the crews that built it. Weekly mowing, fertilization and cleanups by the people who know the property.
SAME CREWS YEAR-ROUND
A yard isn’t a showpiece — it’s where the kids play, the dog runs, and summer happens. Here are the questions Twin Cities homeowners ask us most, answered straight.
That’s the design brief, not a problem. Rounded wall caps, fire pit clearances, traffic-tolerant turf and plantings — every layout starts from how your family will actually use the space.
Low-upkeep is a design decision. Zone 4a-proven plants, smart irrigation, and hardscape built on a properly compacted base that doesn’t need re-leveling every spring.
We don’t disappear. The same crew runs lawn care, irrigation blowouts and seasonal cleanups — and your build carries a written warranty schedule, not a handshake.
We’ve built family yards across the Twin Cities south metro for 15+ years. Yours is next.
The reason most residential projects go wrong is handoffs. We removed them.
Design, hardscape, plantings, irrigation and lighting are all run by our own in-house crew, with owners Nick and Brandon on site. Nothing is farmed out, so nothing gets lost between trades. When something needs a warranty visit three years later, you call the same number and the same crew shows up.
“Their crews are professional, on time and dedicated to providing great service.” — Lori R. · patio replacement, via Google
Hardscape 5 years, trees 2, shrubs and perennials 1, water features 1, and landscape lighting fixtures 15. Published, not negotiated after the fact.
Industry norm: 30-day handshake
Compacted aggregate bases that survive frost heave, and plant selections that are still alive in year three — not just on install day.

Line-item pricing before you sign, and an honest answer if your budget and your wish list don’t match yet.

Every quote below is verbatim from our public Google Business Profile.
“North Ridge Outdoor Services replaced my old aging deck with this beautiful patio. From start to finish, Nick and Brandon as owners were actively engaged, ensuring that every aspect of the project met my expectations. Their crews are professional, on time and dedicated to providing great service.”

“We recently had a major landscaping renovation completed including railroad-tiered walls removed and replaced with large boulder walls, granite stairs, irrigation, sod and flowers. The entire team was amazing! They were on time every day, very professional.”

“We just had North Ridge complete landscape work for the third time. Nick & Brandon are always helpful providing ideas and giving input during the design phase. Their crews are always friendly, do wonderful work, and clean up their work area.”

Five steps, each with a date attached. You always know what happens next.
We meet at your property, listen to how your family uses the space, and take measurements. You get honest feedback on what your budget actually buys.
Free · about an hour
You see the layout, the materials, and every line of the price before you commit. Phasing options if you want to spread it across seasons.
Within 5 business days
We lock your install window, pull anything the city requires, and stage materials. You get a start date, not a “we’ll be in touch.”
Booked to your season
Our own crew does the work. Base prep, hardscape, plantings, irrigation and lighting — in order, with daily cleanup.
Most projects 1–3 weeks
We walk the finished yard with you, hand over care instructions and your written warranty, and — if you want — put you on the maintenance calendar.
Same crew, year-round
Most families land in one of these three. Nothing here is a package you have to buy — it’s how the work tends to scope out.
One area, done properly
Best for: a tired front entry, a settling walkway, or one bed that never took.
$5,000 – $15,000
Design the whole yard at once
Best for: families who want the patio, plantings, wall and lighting to finally work together.
$15,000 – $75,000
The same crew keeps it
Best for: homeowners who don’t want to hand the finished yard to a stranger.
Quoted per property
Every range is a starting point, not a quote. The number you get on the first visit is the one we build to.
No coordinating three vendors and hoping they talk to each other. This is the full list we handle in-house.
Focused single-area work — one patio, one bed, a walkway — starts around $5,000. Full design-and-install projects typically run $15,000–$75,000 depending on scope and materials. You get real numbers on the first visit, line-item and in writing, plus a phased plan if you’d rather spread it across seasons.

Yes. Many families design the whole yard once, then build it across two or three seasons — patio first, plantings and lighting later. You still get one cohesive design, and each phase carries its own written warranty.
That’s designed in from the first sketch: fire pit clearances, seat-wall heights, traffic-tolerant turf, and pondless water features with no standing water. Tell us how your family uses the yard and we’ll design to it.
Yes — weekly lawn maintenance, irrigation startup and fall blowout, and seasonal cleanups, all run by the same crew year-round. Most families move onto a care program after the build.
It’s a written schedule, not a handshake: hardscape 5 years, trees 2 years, shrubs and perennials 1 year, water features 1 year, and landscape lighting fixtures 15 years. If something fails inside its window, we come back — no invoice.
