This FAQ page covers the most common questions we receive about our services, design process, timelines, maintenance, and service areas throughout Anne Arundel County, Prince Georges County, and Calvert County.
Whether you’re planning a new patio, water feature, outdoor kitchen, or full landscape transformation, the answers below are designed to help you feel informed, confident, and prepared before starting your project. If you have additional questions or would like to schedule a free consultation for any of our commercial or residential landscape services, please contact us.
1. What services does Maryland Lawn & Landscape provide?
Maryland Lawn & Landscape offers full landscaping services, including design, installation, maintenance, hardscaping, custom outdoor living spaces, patios, walkways, retaining walls, water features, outdoor kitchens, and seasonal cleanups for both residential and commercial properties.
2. What areas do you serve?
We are based out of Davidsonville, MD and serve Maryland clients throughout Anne Arundel County, Prince Georges County, and Calvert County, including but not limited to Crofton, Odenton, Crownsville, Bowie, Upper Marlboro, Gambrills, Annapolis, and the surrounding area.
3. How do I get a quote for a landscaping project?
You can request a free estimate by calling our office or submitting the contact form on our website. We’ll schedule a consultation to review your property, discuss your goals, and evaluate the scope of the project. For most projects, we provide a detailed proposal following this visit. In some cases—particularly for larger or more complex projects—a formal landscape or site design may be required, which can involve an additional design fee if the project reaches that stage.
4. Do you offer design services for outdoor living spaces?
Yes — we specialize in custom outdoor living designs, including layouts for patios, fire features, water features, outdoor kitchens, seating walls, and lighting that enhance both form and function. Depending on the scope of the project, we can also provide CAD drawings, 3D sketches, and even video renderings to help you visualize the finished space before construction begins.
5. How long does a typical landscaping project take?
Project timelines vary by scope. Smaller installs may take a few days, while larger custom outdoor living spaces, hardscapes, or water features can take several weeks. Timeline details are provided during the consultation phase so you know what to expect for your project.
6. Do you offer maintenance services after installation?
Yes. We provide ongoing maintenance services, including lawn care, pruning, mulching, seasonal cleanups, fertilization, and irrigation system support to keep your landscape healthy and attractive.
7. What materials do you use for patios and hardscaping?
We use high-quality materials including natural stone, pavers, brick, and concrete, selected for durability, style, and compatibility with your design aesthetic.
8. Can you install custom water features and fire features?
Absolutely. We design and install custom water features like ponds, waterfalls, and bubblers, as well as fire pits and fireplaces that create ambiance and become focal points in your outdoor living space. We also specialize in pondless water features, which can be added almost anywhere and require far less maintenance than water features with a pond.
9. Do you offer outdoor kitchen installation?
Yes — we design and build outdoor kitchens tailored to your cooking and entertaining needs, including stonework, built-in grills, countertops, cabinets, and lighting.
10. What should I prepare before landscaping installation begins?
Very little—our team handles nearly every aspect of the project for you. Before installation begins, we’ll walk you through what to expect and let you know in advance if anything specific is required on your end. If items need to be moved or there are special considerations such as pets, irrigation, or fragile plants, we’ll coordinate everything ahead of time.
11. How do you handle irrigation and drainage?
We assess existing irrigation and drainage conditions and can install, repair, or upgrade systems to ensure efficient water use and prevent pooling or erosion.
12. When is the best time to schedule landscaping work?
Many landscape installations are best done in spring and fall, but most projects can be completed year-round. Site conditions, soil temperature, and plant availability can influence timing, and we offer a warranty on all projects regardless of season. We’ll recommend ideal scheduling during your consultation.
