Front Garden Bed Replacement & Renovations
The landscaping in the front of your home is the first thing you, and your guests, and neighbors are going to notice. The "curb appeal" of your home not only improves your property value but it also makes you feel better about your property too. When your front garden beds are neglected, overgrown, and ignored, it detracts from the entire appearance of your property. If your front garden beds need to be refreshed, you'll be glad you've found our site!
Larkin Landscaping is a landscaping contractor based out of Washington, PA and serving Washington County and the surrounding area. We specialize in renovating, revitalizing, and restoring, neglected and overgrown front, side, or backyard garden beds. If you don't currently have any garden beds but would like to add some, we also offer design and installation of new garden beds too.
Whether you'd like to clean up and refresh your existing beds or have new garden beds constructed our team will be able to transform your front yard and improve your curb appeal.

How Do We Design and Construct New Garden Beds?
We have a specific process that we put into action to build new or restore your garden beds. Our customers are thrilled with the improvement to their curb appeal and "new look" we're able to give their property.
Step #1. You need to request a consultation and estimate. We will come to your property, look at your current garden beds or the areas you'd like new beds installed. We take accurate measurements so we know how much soil and/or mulch is going to be required and what we're going to need for plantings.
Step #2. We discuss the plantings and materials you'd like to use. We typically try and use low-maintenance materials when possible. These include low-maintenance native plants or bushes (suitable for zone 7B and 8A), river rock and stone, or mulch. Plantings can vary depending on the time of year, the amount of color or interest you'd like, and what is currently available at our local nurseries. We always choose plants that will do well in our climate.
Step #3. We can provide you with a hand-drawn garden bed design that will outline the shape, and plantings that will be used for your new garden beds. We can work with you to adjust and fine-tune the design if needed.
Step# 4. Once you've accepted the design and approved our estimate we can get to work! We start by cleaning out your existing garden beds, removing all of the brush and overgrowth. We re-establish an edge to the beds so they have a clear and distinct separation from your lawn, walkway, driveway, or other hardscaping.
Step #5. With the beds cleaned out and edged we can begin to layout the new plantings. From here we can fine-tune the placement of the new plants to determine what is going to look the best, taking into consideration future growth, and the look you're trying to achieve.
Step #6. With the new plantings installed, we can then fill in the garden beds with new soil, mulch, river rock, stone, or whatever material you'd like to have in the beds. We always recommend mulch or stone for a beautiful, uniform appearance, and very low maintenance requirements.
Step #7. You get to enjoy the beautiful new look we've given your home!

Our Clients Love Us!
Here's What They Say
Ben the owner is a young professional who works hard and is passionate about his work. He and his team did mulching, trimming, removed a juniper tree, edging and weeding. When done they walked me around to inspect and ensured my satisfaction. They even removed old mulching as it was too thick and sliding. Pricing was fair for the work and I would recommend this group.
Ben did a great job pruning my shrubs also had a Japanese Maple Tree that was also trimmed neatly A young professional very courteous
