Our Installation Process
We approach every landscape installation project with a clear, proven process:
Consultation
We meet with you on-site to assess your property, goals, and vision. Whether it’s a full front yard install, a side bed refresh, or a complete backyard transformation, we take the time to understand what matters most.
Design + Planning
Our team builds a custom plan that includes plant layout, material choices, soil or grading needs, and long-term growth considerations. We focus on native and zone-appropriate plants that will thrive in Charleston’s hot summers, mild winters, and occasional salt exposure.
Site Prep + Grading
Proper prep is key. We grade the land to ensure proper drainage, install any base materials, and amend the soil as needed for successful root growth and long-term health.
Installation
From start to finish, we treat your property with care. Our crew installs each element with precision, from carefully spacing plantings to laying clean bed edges and applying even mulch coverage.
Walkthrough + Maintenance Guidance
We walk the property with you to review the installation and provide tips on watering, care, and seasonal maintenance. We also offer landscape maintenance packages for ongoing support.
Benefits of
Professional Landscape Installation
Hiring Cramers Landscaping means more than a quick refresh—it’s an investment in the beauty, value, and performance of your property.
Curb Appeal
A well-installed landscape instantly elevates the appearance of your home or business, making a positive impression on neighbors, guests, or potential buyers.
Property Value
According to real estate data, a professionally designed and installed landscape can boost property value by 10% to 15%. It’s one of the highest-ROI upgrades available.
Drainage and Erosion Control
Our installations improve water flow and reduce standing water, erosion, and runoff—especially important in Charleston’s flood-prone neighborhoods.
Environmental Health
Native plantings, tree canopies, and mulch all contribute to a healthier ecosystem, attract pollinators, and support local biodiversity.
Ideal for
New Builds and
Renovations
We frequently work with home builders, developers, and new homeowners looking to establish their landscaping from the ground up. We also support homeowners undergoing renovation who want to reimagine their outdoor space to match the updated style of their home.
If you’re starting with a blank canvas or want to overhaul your current yard, we’ll help you select the right materials, sequence the installation properly, and ensure future additions—like patios or pergolas—fit seamlessly into the plan.
