Landscaping & Hardscaping FAQs
How much does professional landscaping cost?
+
Landscaping cost depends on the size of your space, the materials chosen, and whether the project includes hardscaping, plantings, or lighting, so every job is quoted after a free consultation. Fitz's Fish Ponds handles projects of all sizes and provides a clear written proposal with timeline and costs before any work begins, so there are no surprises.
What is the difference between landscaping and hardscaping?
+
Landscaping covers the living elements of your yard, such as lawns, plantings, and gardens, while hardscaping covers the built elements like patios, walkways, retaining walls, and fire pits. Fitz's Fish Ponds designs both together so the soft and hard features complement each other in one cohesive outdoor space.
What landscaping and hardscaping services does Fitz's offer?
+
Fitz's Fish Ponds offers landscape design and construction, masonry and stonework, outdoor kitchens and pizza ovens, fire pits and fireplaces, plantings, lighting, woodworking, pergolas, fencing, drainage solutions, seeding and sodding, vegetable gardens, and pruning. The team handles every stage from design through installation.
How long does a landscaping project take?
+
Timeline depends on the size and complexity of the project. A planting refresh or a single patio moves faster than a full design-build with retaining walls, an outdoor kitchen, and lighting. After your consultation and design, Fitz's Fish Ponds provides a project timeline in the proposal so you know what to expect at each stage.
Do you build patios and retaining walls?
+
Yes. Fitz's Fish Ponds designs and installs patios, walkways, retaining walls, fire pits, outdoor kitchens, and other masonry and stonework. These hardscape features add structure and usable space to your yard, and the team builds them to last while complementing the surrounding landscape and plantings.
