Services
Landscape Architecture
Our licensed landscape architects create customized outdoor environments that integrate with home architecture and natural surroundings. We develop detailed site plans considering topography, drainage, and plant selection while maintaining budget parameters. The process includes 3D renderings, material samples, and phased implementation plans to ensure client vision alignment with practical execution.
Pool Design
We specialize in luxury pool and spa designs that complement overall landscape architecture. Our designs incorporate custom shapes, water features, and surrounding hardscapes while considering sun exposure and usage patterns. The process includes coordination with pool installation specialists to ensure seamless integration with patios, lighting, and outdoor living elements.
Front Yard Landscaping
Custom front yard designs enhance architectural features while creating inviting entryways. Services include flower bed installation, retaining walls, walkway construction, and low-maintenance plantings that withstand local climate conditions. We focus on creating year-round visual interest through strategic plant selection and hardscape integration.
Outdoor Living Spaces
We design and build complete outdoor entertainment areas featuring patios, pergolas, fire pits, and custom carpentry elements. Our approach considers family lifestyle needs while incorporating durable materials suited for Georgia and Alabama climates. Projects often include integrated lighting, irrigation, and drainage solutions for year-round usability.
Custom Hardscapes
Our craftsmen install premium hardscape features including driveways, walkways, retaining walls, and decorative stone elements. We use natural stone and pavers selected for durability in southeastern climates. Each installation includes proper grading and drainage solutions to ensure long-term structural integrity and aesthetic appeal.

We used OLG for a second time on a full yard landscaping plan after our first great experience over ten years ago. They may not be the least expensive, but they are a true value because they plan, communicate and execute extremely well. Their crews show up in force and knock out the job with great care and precision. Nothing was damaged; no filth remained. We're very happy with our new front and back yards along with our lighting system that they installed.

Outside Landscape just updated our overgrown front landscaping. What a huge difference! Not just to the plantings, but to the appearance of our home. Now, when I pull into my driveway, I am happy and love what I see. Thank you!

Report
Outside Landscape Group replaced our deck, installed a Cedar fence and garbage can enclosure and designed and installed the landscaping around our pool and house. Throughout the recent upgrade and our 2013 project, Outside Landscape Group performed with the utmost professionalism. We worked with Adam for the recent project, he was outstanding. He kept us up to date on each phase of the project and was quick to answer our inquiries. We would highly recommend Outside Landscaping Group for your landscaping, deck replacement or fence project.
