Landscaping & Hardscape in Washington, DC
Washington DC landscaping is shaped by Mid-Atlantic climate, dense urban housing, and DC's strong urban tree canopy program. The city's UFA (Urban Forestry Administration) protects significant trees on private property. Native plant designs (oakleaf hydrangea, eastern redbud, native viburnum) thrive without irrigation. NeedInstall connects you with DC landscapers who handle UFA permits, design with native palettes, and install proper drainage on small urban lots.
DC landscaping runs $6,000-$30,000 for residential redesigns. DC requires a Home Improvement Contractor license. UFA permits required for protected trees. Standard 1-3 week install.
