Landscaping and hardscaping covers everything from lawn installation and garden design to retaining walls, pavers, outdoor lighting, and drainage solutions. Good landscaping combines aesthetics with proper grading and drainage to protect your home's foundation.
Typical costs: Basic landscaping projects start at $2,000–$5,000. Paver patio installation runs $15–$30 per square foot. Full backyard redesigns with hardscape, planting, and lighting run $10,000–$50,000+.
- Paver patio or walkway installation
- Retaining wall construction
- Lawn installation (sod or seed)
- Outdoor lighting systems
- Drainage and grading solutions
Retaining walls over 4 feet typically require permits and engineering. Grading changes that affect drainage patterns may also need permits. Basic planting and small hardscape projects generally don't.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How much does landscaping & hardscape cost in Trenton?
- Paver patios run $15–$30 per square foot installed. Sod installation is $1–$2 per square foot. Retaining walls cost $20–$50 per square face foot. Outdoor lighting systems run $2,000–$6,000. Costs vary significantly based on material choices and site conditions.
- How do I find a reliable landscaping & hardscape contractor in Trenton?
- For hardscape work, ask about base preparation (compacted gravel, sand setting bed, edge restraints) — shortcuts here cause settling and shifting within a few years. For planting, a good landscaper considers sun exposure, soil type, and drainage rather than just picking pretty plants.
- Do I need a permit for landscaping & hardscape in Trenton?
- Basic planting and small paver projects don't need permits. Retaining walls over 4 feet, significant grading changes, or work near property lines may require permits. Check with your local building department for specific thresholds.
