Your outdoor space is more than just a piece of land; it is also an extension of your house, a haven for your family, and where your neighbours first see you. Amherst Landscaping is of the opinion that each yard has the potential to be exceptional. Our team is here to provide expert care with a personal touch, whether you want to install a new lawn, design a complicated hardscape, or just keep your property manicured throughout the seasons.
With years of experience serving the Amherst community, we understand the local climate, soil conditions, and aesthetic preferences that make our area unique. Our comprehensive suite of landscaping services is designed to handle everything from routine maintenance to large-scale transformations, ensuring your property remains healthy, vibrant, and beautiful year-round.
In a world of “one-size-fits-all” contractors, we pride ourselves on being different. Ecosystems are managed, not just lawns. Our approach combines horticultural expertise with creative design and reliable execution. When you partner with us, you aren’t just hiring a crew—you’re gaining a dedicated team of professionals who treat your property as if it were their own.
We know which plants thrive in Amherst and how to manage the specific challenges of our regional weather.
We listen to your goals, respect your budget, and communicate clearly from the initial consultation to the final walkthrough.
We use professional-grade equipment and sustainable practices to deliver results that last.
Great landscapes begin with a great plan. Our design process involves working together to combine
your concepts with our expertise to produce an outdoor setting that is both functional and attractive.
Custom Garden Beds: From vibrant perennials to low-maintenance shrubs, we select plants that provide four-season interest.
Tree and shrub planting: We make sure your new greenery gets off to the best possible start by placing it in the right spot and preparing the soil.
Drainage and Site Grading: A beautiful yard must also be useful. We solve drainage issues and level terrain to protect your home’s foundation and prevent pooling.
The centrepiece of any great property is a green, lush lawn. However, more than just occasional mowing
is required to achieve that “golf course” appearance. Our lawn care programmes are tailored to the specific needs of your grass type and soil health.
Precision Mowing: We use a variety of patterns and sharp blades to ensure a clean finish and healthy grass growth.
Fertilisation and Weed Control: We apply the right nutrients at the right time, keeping your lawn fed while keeping invasive weeds at bay.
Aeration and Overseeding: To combat soil compaction and thinning grass, we offer core aeration and high-quality seeding to rejuvenate your turf.
Hardscaping provides the structure that allows you to truly live in your outdoor space.
Our stone and masonry work combines durability with timeless elegance.
Paver Patios: Create the perfect spot for summer BBQs and evening relaxation with a custom-designed patio.
Natural Stone Walkways: Guide guests through your garden with beautiful, safe, and durable paths.
Retaining Walls: Manage slopes and create tiered garden beds with walls that are as strong as they are attractive.
Amherst experiences the full beauty of all four seasons, but that beauty often comes with a lot of yard work.
Let us handle the heavy lifting so you can enjoy the view.
Spring Clean-Up: We clear away winter debris, edge your beds, and apply fresh mulch to prep your property for the growing season.
Fall Leaf Removal: Don’t let fallen leaves smother your grass. We provide thorough leaf blowing and removal to keep your lawn breathing through the winter.
Trees and shrubs are valuable assets to your property. Our maintenance services guarantee their safety and health.
Pruning and Trimming: Regular pruning promotes fruit and flower production while removing hazardous or diseased branches.
Hedge Shaping: We keep your privacy screens and decorative hedges looking sharp and uniform.
In addition to residential care, we provide robust landscaping solutions for Amherst businesses,
HOAs, and municipal properties.
We understand that your commercial landscape is a reflection of your brand. We provide comprehensive maintenance contracts and flexible scheduling to ensure that your business always looks its best for customers and staff.
We know that inviting a service team onto your property requires trust. We place a high value on content with a “human touch” as a result of this. We are your neighbors, not a faceless business. When you call us, you speak to someone who cares about your project. When our crew arrives, they are polite, professional, and tidy.
We believe that landscaping is an investment in your quality of life. A well-designed outdoor space can reduce stress, provide a safe area for children to play, and significantly increase your property value. Our goal is to make the process as seamless and enjoyable for you as possible.
Typically, once a week during the peak growing season is ideal. In order to avoid “scalping” the lawn, which can result in stress and disease, we adjust our frequency in accordance with rainfall and grass growth rates.
While planting is often best done in the spring or fall, design and hardscaping can happen throughout much of the year. It’s always best to reach out early so we can get you on the schedule!
