Services
Landscape Design
Our landscape design service creates customized outdoor environments that blend aesthetics with functionality. We collaborate with homeowners to develop detailed plans incorporating hardscapes, plantings, and specialty features. The process includes site analysis, concept development, and material selection to ensure each design complements the property's architecture and the owner's lifestyle.
Lawn Care
Professional lawn care maintains turf health through seasonal treatments including fertilization, aeration, and pest management. Our technicians implement IPM protocols to address specific grass needs while minimizing environmental impact. Regular maintenance schedules ensure consistent appearance and long-term lawn vitality across Northern Virginia properties.
Irrigation Systems
Custom irrigation solutions optimize water usage through smart controller technology and efficient sprinkler placement. Our certified technicians design systems tailored to property dimensions and plant requirements. Installation includes backflow prevention and rain sensors to ensure compliance with local water regulations while maintaining landscape hydration.
Tree Removal
Professional tree removal addresses hazardous or unwanted vegetation using specialized equipment and safety protocols. Our arborists assess tree health and structural integrity before implementing removal plans. The service includes stump grinding and debris cleanup to prepare sites for replanting or hardscape installation.
Mosquito Control
Targeted mosquito control reduces pest populations through barrier treatments and breeding site elimination. Our technicians apply EPA-registered solutions that target mosquitoes while preserving beneficial insects. Monthly applications create protective zones around outdoor living areas for enhanced comfort during warmer seasons.

A terrible and disrespectful company that doesn't care at all. If I could give them zero stars I would because they don't even deserve one. Do yourself a huge favor and never call this company for anything! They will ruin your neighbors lawn as well while working on yours.

We hired Wheats for a drainage issue and landscape mulching on our property. They were quick and responsive throughout the project. The work took two days - and they did an outstanding job. I am very pleased with the work they did and the price was by far the best of all the estimates we received. We will definitely go to wheats with any future landscaping projects we have.

Working with Wheat's was outstanding in all respects - from initial consultation to the neatly finished job, done by a professional and courteous crew. More specifically, ours may have been a 'small' job, still, the treatment was first class. The designer, Kevin, offered a reasonable solution to what for us was a worrisome problem - improper drainage in a downward sloping backyard that was causing considerable soil erosion.
We are extremely pleased with the results - - a dry creek bed, stone steps, etc., that complement the existing landscape of our small backyard. They also installed a flowering groundcover that will be awesome once it grows and fills in around the stone steps. I highly recommend Wheat's for landscape design and installation. Communications with the company, the designer and the crew were great. Everything was done in a timely manner. Our property looked neat, clean and beautiful when they were done. Thank you - - Wheat's, Kevin and Crew!

Wheat's did a complete re-do of our back yard and side yards. Loved working with their designer who understood exactly what we wanted. He also understood that everything had to be deer-proof! The guys that installed all the bushes and sod and repaired a rotten wooden wall were amazing! Fast, meticulous and so neat! Every single thing that Wheat's planted lived through the hot summer, and every single bush was not touched by deer all summer and winter!
This company is very organized, great management at each level, and just really wonderful to work with! In fact, I just contacted them last week to do a bit more work for us-can't travel, may as well make your living space exactly how you imagine it could be! Great company and great people at Wheat's!

Wheat's has maintained our landscaping for many years, they manage irrigation and lighting, they have managed drainage and made improvements. They handle the cycling of blooming plants so we have color all year around. The account manager is responsive and uses email (which helps a lot). The billing arrangements are efficient. The team leaves written confirmation of their work. They handle snow and leaf removal, pruning and trimming. This is a very reliable operation.
