Reviews
Trusted by homeowners
The design felt made for our house, not pulled off a shelf. Being able to see progress and photos as they built made the whole thing genuinely low-stress.

Every update landed before we had to ask. The finished garden is beyond what we pictured.
Clean, professional and organized from the first message to the final walkthrough.

Questions
Good to know
How does a project with Meridian start?
It starts with a consultation. You tell us about your space and how you want to use it, we visit the site, and from there we put together a considered design and a clear, itemized proposal before any work is scheduled.
Will I be able to follow the project as it happens?
Yes. Keeping you in the loop is part of how we work — you'll get progress updates and photos as the build moves along, and a clear point of contact throughout. The dashboard shown on this page is an illustrative example of that experience.
How much does a landscape project cost?
It depends on the size, materials and scope of the design. After a consultation and site visit we provide a clear, itemized proposal — no fixed guesses and no surprises.
How long does a full design and build take?
Smaller garden or hardscape projects can take a couple of weeks; full transformations run longer. We share a realistic timeline in your proposal before the work begins.
Do you handle drainage and sloped yards?
Yes. Grading, drainage and retaining walls are core parts of how we plan a space — we can turn slopes and problem areas into usable, protected outdoor rooms.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance?
Yes. We offer seasonal care that keeps the planting, hardscape and lighting looking their best, so the landscape improves year over year.
