Lawn Care for Every Budget

Many Dartmouth residents believe that they simply cannot afford house and garden maintenance services.  Some have even been overcharged or misled by other local landscaping companies.  We know how frustrating it can be when your quote changes every time your landscaper steps onto your lawn.  Before we give you a quote for any of our services, we will review all of the relevant information to be sure that what we quote you is accurate - even if that means visiting and assessing your property before any money exchanges hands.  And once we give you a quote, we stand by it! We also offer free expert advice that covers topics, such as the difference between formal and informal landscape design, to help our clients make well informed choices.


Whatever your budget and whatever the state of your yard, we can craft a service plan to give you the outdoor space you want at a price you can afford.  Don’t think you are stuck with an ugly yard just because you don’t make as much as your neighbors - give us a call today to see how affordable professional lawn care in Dartmouth can be!

Our Landscaping and Property Maintenance Services

Dartmouth Landscaping Localturf is a full service lawn care provider.  We offer any and all of the services required to keep your landscape healthy and beautiful, from snow removal services to garden installations.  The following are a few of our most commonly requested services, but this list is by no means all that we can do.  Do not hesitate to reach out to us with even the most unique of needs!


Sod, Mulch, & Topsoil Installation

Whether you have just had a new home built, had extensive repairs to your underground systems, or just can't get anything to grow in a certain part of your lawn, these services are for you. Sod installation is a great way to grow grass quickly in a large part of your yard. Popular after new homes are built, sod takes root and produces a lush, green lawn much quicker and more easily than traditional seeding techniques.


But what if there is a part of your landscape where you don't want grass (and weeds) to grow, such as a garden bed or walking path? Mulch is a great way to protect your soil, prevent unwanted growth, and beautify your space all at once. We offer a variety of mulching options, each with different benefits. Tell us what you need, and we can recommend, deliver, and install the best mulch for you!


Like mulch and sod, topsoil installations can help transform a yard. Topsoil works behind the scenes, however, creating a nutrient-rich environment for grass to grow and a smooth yard for you and your family to enjoy (without worrying about twisting your ankle in a hole). Topsoil can be used to enrich existing soil, fill in holes and low areas, or to fill garden beds with high-quality soil for optimal plant growth. Call us today for quick and affordable topsoil delivery and installation!


Lawn Overseeding and Top Dressing

Do you find yourself being grudgingly grateful that your grass is thin because it allows you to avoid stepping in the holes and sunken in spots that cover your yard?  Or has a new pet dug and destroyed your once pristine lawn?  Overseeding and top dressing can solve these problems and many more.  If your lawn is patchy, thin, or uneven, we have a highly effective repair process.


First, we will spread a thin layer of soil and other organic material over your entire yard.  If there are holes or low spots, we will fill these in with rich top soil until your yard is level.  Once this nutrient-rich blanket is in place, we will spread grass seed over your entire yard.  The fresh soil ensures that both new and existing grass has everything it needs to grow into a thick, lush ground covering.  If you would like, we can even return to water your new lawn regularly until it is ready to thrive on its own!  With a little help from our Dartmouth lawn care experts, your yard will be healthy and free from tripping hazards in no time.

Debris Removal and Seasonal Cleanups

Just like the inside of your home, your outdoor space can get messy if it isn't cleaned up every now and then. Our debris removal and seasonal cleanup services will help you remove organic materials from your yard to restore its natural beauty and functionality. From fallen tree branches after a storm to the leaves that accumulate on the ground every autumn, we will remove the mess and dispose of it in an environmentally responsible manner. Don't risk your own safety cleaning up after a storm - call our professionals to get the job done safely, quickly, and affordably!


Paver Installation and Repair

You might have an impressive collection of greenery in your backyard, but what good is it if you can’t leave your porch for two days after every rain?  Every garden needs tidy walkways that will allow it to be tended to and enjoyed.  Our Dartmouth gardeners can do much more than just care for your plants - they can install garden hardscapes as well!  Whether you need safe, easy access to your front door or a winding path through your garden, we can install pavers that will meet your needs in the most aesthetically pleasing way possible.


For larger surfaces, we recommend using interlocking pavers for a tight fit that resists shifting and sinking. Interlocking pavers are perfect for patios and driveways alike. They provide a strong, long-lasting, and low-maintenance surface that is suitable for a variety of uses. Interlocking pavers also come in a variety of shapes and sizes, allowing your new surface to be customized in more ways than you may have thought possible with paving stones!


Even the best laid pavers don’t last forever, unfortunately.  If your pavers are cracked, crooked, or simply weather-worn, we can repair and restore them so that they look like new.  Removing and replacing pavers can be an expensive and time consuming task, not to mention the damage it can cause to nearby grass and plants.  Before you start digging your old pavers out, give us a call.  Restoration will save you time, money, and a potential backache!


Retaining Wall Installation

Retaining walls serve a variety of purposes, both aesthetic and practical.  You might think that you need to hire one of Dartmouth’s construction companies to install a retaining wall, but our landscapers are more than capable of building a retaining wall that will stand the test of time.  And unlike many construction companies, we understand the effect that a retaining wall has on your foliage - a well designed retaining wall can bring new life to a struggling yard, but a poorly designed one can cause drainage nightmares.


The most important part of a good retaining wall is a strong foundation.  Our installers dig deep to ensure that not even the strongest rains and winds will bring your retaining wall crashing down.  With a strong foundation in place, the above-ground section of the wall can be built from a variety of materials to match the design of your home and other landscape elements.  For a retaining wall that is as functional as it is beautiful, call your local Dartmouth landscaping company today!


Grading and Excavation Services

If you are preparing for a major yard installation or are just tired of the steep slope in your backyard, these services are for you. Our heavy equipment can help you move dirt quickly and precisely to level a certain area or your entire yard. Our landscaping grading services can help improve waterflow and prevent erosion in your yard, in addition to making a smoother and flatter space for outdoor play and entertaining. If you are looking for a more substantial upgrade, our excavation services can help you prepare the ground for an in-ground pool, a new patio or gazebo, or even a garden shed. Call us today with the details of your project, and we will get to work preparing the ground!

Landscaping Irrigation and Drainage

You can spend a good deal of time and money on garden maintenance and landscaping, but without a good irrigation and drainage system, you will spend just as much on maintaining your landscape as you did on installing it.  Improper drainage can also contribute to soil erosion and root rot, both of which are guaranteed ways to kill your foliage.  Proper irrigation is an integral part of lawn maintenance in Dartmouth!


A good irrigation and drainage system guarantees that your lawn and each of your plants gets exactly the water it needs when it needs it.  When heavy rains come, it guides excess water through your yard so that no harm is done to your landscape.  While the methods will vary based on your yard’s needs and your preferences, the result will be the same - flourishing plants, stable soil, and a stress-free lawn.


Garden Bed Installations

Need a little extra color near your front door? Have you always wanted to try growing your own herbs and vegetables? Garden beds are the perfect place for these things and much more. We can help you design and install the perfect garden beds for your space, needs, and style. From in-ground beds lined with pavers to raised beds that make tending your garden more comfortable, our designers will help bring your dreams to life with this simple but powerful landscaping element. No yard is too small to be improved with a garden bed - call us today to get started!


Landscape and Garden Design

Your yard should be a reflection of your style and personality.  Our local landscape designers are experts at bringing out the natural beauty of your space in a way that will make you excited to walk outside every day.  A few tasteful touches of green can make a huge difference in even the smallest of yards.  If bright and bold is more your style, we can fill your yard with vibrant colors and one-of-a-kind decorations. 


Whatever you hope to achieve with your garden landscaping, we have landscapers in Dartmouth who can make it happen.  We will handle your landscaping project from start to finish, so you don’t have to waste time searching all over the city for lawn contractors to complete each step of your yard makeover.  From design to the finishing touches, call us today to schedule the best landscaping Dartmouth, NS has to offer!


Commercial Landscaping and Lawn Care

Our services are not only for residential lawns - we also offer commercial lawn care and commercial landscaping in Dartmouth!  The lawn outside your business is one of the first things your clients will notice when they visit, so it is very important to have a well-manicured lawn.  If you have the space, an eye-catching landscape design can even cause people to notice your business as they pass by (and landscaping is much more cost effective than advertising!).


From small strips of grass near the curb to sprawling lawns, contracting with our Dartmouth lawn care and landscaping experts will remove lawn care from your to-do list and give you more time to focus on what you do best - meeting clients and growing your business.  Let us put our skills to work so that you can make the best use of your skills.  Call us today to see how easy and cost effective professional lawn care can be!


Tree Services

Trees are an integral part of many landscapes, and they often need a little specialized care with specialized tools. We offer trimming, pruning, and even tree removal services if needed to keep your landscape safe and looking its best. Before you climb your tree and start sawing on the large branch overhanging your home, call us. We have the tools and skills to remove even the most awkwardly positioned tree branches safely and efficiently!


Snow Removal Services

We also provide reliable and efficient snow removal services to help our clients navigate the harsh winter months. Instead of putting our equipment into storage for the winter, we swap out a few attachments and get to work clearing snow! Snow buildup on trees, driveways, walkways, and parking lots can be dangerous - if you have to get out after a heavy snowstorm but don't feel confident in your ability to do so safely, call our experts to clear the snow and give you clean, clear access to your vehicle and the road.
