Install What You Planned Without the Guesswork

LBC Landscape provides professional landscape build services for homeowners in Fairhope, Alabama.

Once you have an approved design, the landscape build is where the plan becomes visible. In Fairhope, that means coordinating plant deliveries, preparing beds, setting hardscape elements, and placing plants in a way that accounts for drainage and spacing. A professional build ensures that materials arrive on schedule, layout matches the design, and plants go into the ground at the right depth and spacing to support long-term growth in coastal Alabama conditions.

LBC Landscape handles the full installation process, from site prep to final placement. The build includes grading for drainage, amending soil where needed, installing plants according to the design, and setting any hardscape or edging materials. Each project is built with attention to visual flow, seasonal changes, and durability in sandy soils and high humidity. Landscape builds are common for new homes and property upgrades in Fairhope where the goal is to create a functional, attractive outdoor space that requires reasonable maintenance over time.

How the Installation Process Works

The build begins with site prep, which includes clearing the area, grading for proper drainage, and amending soil where needed. In Fairhope, sandy soil often requires organic material to improve water retention and nutrient availability. Once the site is ready, plants are placed according to the design, with spacing that allows for mature size and airflow.

After the build is complete, you will see defined planting beds, proper drainage flow, and a layout that supports the plants as they grow. Mulch is applied to retain moisture and reduce weeds, and edging materials are set to keep beds clean and prevent erosion. The landscape is left ready for watering and maintenance, with no loose soil or unclear borders.

The build does not include irrigation installation or lighting, though those systems can be integrated during the project if planned in advance. Ongoing maintenance such as pruning, fertilizing, and seasonal adjustments is the responsibility of the homeowner unless arranged separately. The project timeline depends on property size, weather, and material availability.

Can I make changes to the design during the build?

Do you install irrigation or lighting during the build?
