OUR SERVICES
SEAMLESS SERVICE
FOR ALL PHASES OF YOUR LANDSCAPE’S LIFE
WHERE STYLE AND FUNCTION MEET
Your landscape is a substantial investment, and it requires thoughtful planning to create the perfect outdoor space for your lifestyle. A Yard & A Half can guide you to the right designer from our design-build staff or local design partners to meet your style and budget, as well as to address any technical challenges of your site. Whether you are a new homebuyer looking to create a kid-friendly play area or recently retired and planning to spend more time maintaining your own garden, our landscape design services will help transform your yard into a functional and beautiful space for the next phase of your life. And because we work closely with our design partners, you can be sure of a seamless transition from design through installation to ongoing maintenance.
IF YOU CAN DREAM IT, WE CAN DO IT
Our in-house staff of landscape artists build dry-stacked retaining walls, permeable paver driveways, and intricate natural stone patios. Careful installation of trees, shrubs, and fragrant perennials, low-voltage landscape lighting, and water features add the finishing touches that will keep you and your family out in the garden into the evening, spring through fall. For nearly 30 years, Boston-area landscape designers have trusted the team at A Yard & A Half to faithfully implement their visions with excellent craftsmanship, backed up by our lifetime landscape construction guarantee.
AS BEAUTIFUL AS WHEN WE INSTALLED IT
Knowledgeable garden maintenance is like an insurance policy to protect the value of your landscape. And because we don’t use synthetic fertilizers or pesticides, our organic approach protects the health of your family, neighborhood, and beneficial pollinators, too! Whether you are an avid gardener with a collection of specimen plants, a busy professional, or a property manager interested in improving curb appeal, we will assign a dedicated crew to match your ongoing maintenance needs. Compare our landscape maintenance packages to find care tailored to your schedule, budget, and priorities.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO IT ALONE
Landscape consultation during the planning stage of a residential construction project can save money and frustration and may even increase the allowable footprint of a project by offsetting new impervious surfaces with permeable paving or greenspace.

Phyllis

“On Saturday I was in the vegetable garden planting… I looked up through the pergola into the side garden and it was absolutely perfect. It looked like something out of a magazine.”
