Landscape Design & Paver Patio Installation in Green Bay, WI

Design the whole yard once instead of adding to it for ten years.

Green Bay backyards sit on some of the heaviest red clay in the state, which is why a patio that went in without a proper base starts to tip and separate by its third spring. Our landscape design process starts with what is under your yard, not with a rendering, so the plan accounts for how water moves across your lot before anyone talks about materials. A paver patio installation in Allouez or off Baird Creek gets a deeper base and a drainage plan built for clay that holds water for days after a storm.

Most Green Bay homeowners come to us with a list rather than a single project: a patio, a grade that never drained right, beds that were planted the year the house was built. We design all of it as one plan, so a retaining wall installed this year lines up with the outdoor kitchen you add next year instead of looking like two separate decisions. Our designers cover Green Bay and De Pere from an 18-acre nursery a half hour down I-41, so the trees and pavers in your plan are ones you can walk out and see before they go in the ground.

OUR SERVICES

Landscape Design in Green Bay, WI

One designer walks your Green Bay property, draws the plan, and stays on it through install, so the drawing you approve is the one the crew builds. That plan is measured against your lot's grade, sun exposure, and sightlines rather than dropped in from a template, and it covers the full property so future phases already have a place to go.

Spacious paver patio in Green Bay, WI, with a stylish fire pit and cozy outdoor furniture.

Paver Patios in Green Bay, WI

Brown County clay is unforgiving on a shallow base, so we excavate deeper, compact in lifts, and build in drainage before the first Unilock paver goes down. That is the difference between a patio that still sits flat after ten Green Bay winters and one that heaves at the edges by year three.

Reinforced retaining wall in Green Bay, WI, designed for strength and aesthetic appeal.

Retaining Walls in Green Bay, WI

Clay holds water, and water behind a wall is what pushes it out of line. We engineer drainage and backfill into the wall from the start, whether it is holding a slope down toward the East River or squaring off a raised patio into usable seating.

Modern outdoor kitchen in Green Bay, WI, featuring a built-in grill, sink, and prep space.

Outdoor Kitchens in Green Bay, WI

Built from the same stone and paver as your patio, laid out around how you cook and where people stand while you do it. Counters and structure are built on a base that handles freeze and thaw, so a Green Bay winter does not open cracks along the countertop seams.

Stone fire pit in Green Bay, WI, built for warmth and relaxation on cool evenings.

Fire Pits in Green Bay, WI

A fire feature sized to your patio and matched to your hardscape, which is what keeps it from reading like an add-on. Gas for weeknights, wood-burning for weekends, either one placed to work with the seating you already have and to stretch your season past the point most Green Bay yards get put away.

Lush garden center in Green Bay, WI, showcasing a diverse selection of flowers and trees.

Nursery & Garden Center for Green Bay Projects

Every tree, shrub, and perennial in your Green Bay plan comes off our own 18 acres, grown for Northeast Wisconsin and chosen for clay-heavy ground rather than ordered sight unseen from a supplier. You can walk the rows and pick the exact specimens going into your beds.
