What Our Happy
Customers Are Saying
“We are blown away by the work that Steve VanRyzin and his team did with the landscaping and new entryway.
I can't wait to see everything bloom in the years to come! Everything he did was so thought out and so artistic. We just love Van Zeeland and Steve and everyone who worked so hard to beautify our home.”

Frequently Asked Questions
-
A landscape design and build project timeline with Van Zeeland depends on scope. A single patio or retaining wall moves faster than a full-property renovation involving plantings, lighting, and multiple structures. Weather and permitting also affect timing in Northeast Wisconsin, particularly for projects starting in spring or fall. A project-specific timeline follows once the design is finalized.
-
Design-build projects with Van Zeeland include a detailed design plan showing layout, materials, and plantings before any construction is scheduled. The design team adjusts the plan through review until it matches the homeowner's vision and budget. This step happens after the initial consultation and ahead of any crew scheduling. Reviewing the plan in advance avoids costly mid-project changes.
-
Larger renovations involving multiple elements, such as patios, retaining walls, plantings, and structures, move through Van Zeeland's own design and construction teams rather than outside subcontractors. Keeping both phases in-house holds the project to one timeline and avoids the coordination gaps that come with separate design and build companies. The build sequence follows an order set by the design team, so hardscaping, grading, and plantings happen in the right order for long-term durability. This structure suits comprehensive renovations rather than single, isolated tasks.
