Riverside projects may involve coastal exposure, water management, occupied living spaces, high-finish interiors, established grounds, pools, and specialty home systems.

Helpful first details for landscaping services

Send property photos, the problem areas, how you use the space, and the level of ongoing maintenance you prefer.

Design for the property, not the nursery tag

Successful planting considers light, water, soil, drainage, mature size, deer pressure, salt exposure, existing roots, maintenance expectations, and how the property is used. The plan should avoid creating a future pruning, drainage, or access problem.

Connect landscaping to water management

Landscape beds, downspouts, patios, walls, driveways, and lawn grades influence how water moves. Planting can support a drainage plan, but it should not be used to conceal an unresolved water problem. Significant drainage conditions may require grading, civil, masonry, or other specialized input.

Ecological & Environmental Stewardship

We respect native soil biomes, suggest organic fertilizers where appropriate, recommend Connecticut-native plant lists to support local pollinators, and follow local wetland buffer boundaries.

CT HIC.0705773. Work requiring an occupational license is performed by the appropriately licensed professional identified in the project documentation.

What should I send for a landscaping services review?

Share the property town, observed condition or desired result, affected areas, timing, and any plans or previous diagnoses. Kennedy can arrange secure sharing if photos or documents are needed after the initial review.

Do you offer weekly lawn mowing?

We focus on project landscaping, planting installations, grading, lawn renovations, cleanups, and estate-maintenance plans. We do not operate standalone weekly mowing-only routes.

Yes. The level of design can range from a practical planting layout to a more detailed plan coordinated with hardscape, lighting, irrigation, and architecture.

Can you improve drainage?

Kennedy can coordinate drainage assessment and related landscape or hardscape work. The correct solution depends on source, elevation, soil, discharge, wetlands, and municipal requirements.

Do you replace lawns after construction?

Yes. Lawn and bed restoration can be incorporated into the closeout scope for exterior, utility, pool, or hardscape projects.

Can Kennedy recommend materials for exposed exterior conditions?

Kennedy can coordinate material and detailing recommendations based on the actual exposure, existing assembly, maintenance expectations, manufacturer requirements, and specialist input.
