Start Your Project

5. Do I need a full design before starting a project?
Not always. Some projects can move forward with a simple plan, while others benefit from a more detailed design.

For larger projects like outdoor living spaces, patios, retaining walls, or full-property transformations, a design helps ensure everything fits your space and goals. For smaller updates, we may be able to recommend a more direct path.

During your consultation, we will help determine what level of planning makes the most sense.

6. What types of hardscape projects do you build?
We design and install hardscape features that make your outdoor space more usable and attractive.

Common hardscape projects include:

  • Custom paver patios
  • Front entry pathways
  • Retaining walls
  • Garden walls
  • Outdoor steps and staircases
  • Fire pits
  • Outdoor chimneys
  • Seating areas
  • Outdoor gathering spaces
  • Outdoor kitchens

These features can help define your yard, improve flow, and create more room for relaxing or entertaining.

7. Can you help with curb appeal improvements?
Yes. Curb appeal is one of the most popular reasons homeowners contact us.

We can help improve the look of your front yard with services such as:

  • Fresh landscape design
  • Flower and shrub installation
  • New mulch
  • New gravel
  • Bed edging
  • Paver walkways
  • Entry enhancements
  • Outdoor lighting

A well-designed front yard creates a welcoming first impression and can add value to your home.

8. Do you offer outdoor living space design?
Yes. Hancock Landscape can help create custom outdoor living areas built around how you want to use your space.

These projects may include:

  • Patios for dining and entertaining
  • Outdoor kitchens for cooking and gatherings
  • Fire features for gathering
  • Landscape lighting for evening use
  • Walkways to connect spaces
  • Plantings to soften and frame the design

A custom outdoor living space can turn your backyard into an extension of your home.

9. How long does a landscaping or hardscaping project take?
Project timelines vary based on the size and complexity of the work.

A smaller planting or refresh project may take only a short time, while a larger patio, retaining wall, or full outdoor living project may take longer. Weather, material availability, and project scope can also affect the timeline.

We provide a clear project outline before work begins so you know what to expect.
