Landscape Installation
Our landscape heritage dates back to the mid 1970s. In the time elapsed from our humble beginnings, D & A Dunlevy has come to deeply understand that Landscape Installation goes beyond simply “planting bushes”. We use the highest standard horticultural practices when installing landscapes. Planting beds are always properly amended with organic compost and then tilled to create perfect growing conditions for new plantings. Our crewmembers understand how plants grow and not just how to get plants into the ground. Our attention to detail and our knowledgeable staff is what separates D & A Dunlevy Landscapers, Inc. from our competitors.
What type of details do we look for?
When selecting your plants, we make sure the specific environment agrees with the plant type. D & A Dunlevy carefully examines each plant’s need for sun and shade, drainage, soil type, surrounding plants, spacing and proximity to structures or pathways. By considering so many variables, we bring our passion for healthy vibrant landscapes from the pages of a contract right onto your property.
When purchasing plants, we examine each plant for the following: density of the foliage, proper form, good color, vigorous health (disease and insect free), similarity of plants within each grouping, symmetrical branching structure and a strong central leader (for evergreen trees).
When laying out plants, we make sure that they are spaced appropriately. When planting, we make sure that each plant is backfilled tightly. A landscape installation is a lifetime investment. Our customers benefit from our attention to detail as, over the years, their plantings reach healthy maturation.
Let’s not forget the importance of transplanting services in landscape projects. Many believe that the large size of their trees and shrubs leave only the option of removal. D & A Dunlevy is able to transplant almost any plant or tree, saving you money. We have the expertise to transplant material that others see as impossible. Reusing existing plants creates a mature, ready-to-enjoy landscape from day one.
