"We recently worked with Design Exteriors on a full landscaping project for our home, and the results exceeded our expectations. From the very first consultation, their team was professional, creative, and attentive to every detail. They took the time to understand our vision, offered thoughtful design suggestions, and turned our yard into a beautiful, functional outdoor space that we now love spending time in. The crew was punctual, respectful, and left the property spotless each day. The quality of the plants, stonework, and lighting is top-notch, and it’s clear that Design Exteriors truly cares about craftsmanship and customer satisfaction. We’ve already received so many compliments from neighbors and friends! If you’re looking for a landscaping company that delivers exceptional design, quality, and service — Design Exteriors is the one to call. Highly recommended!"

Restaurants WISH they could be this awesome.
When we saw this gorgeous tree, we knew we had to plan for it in the design.  We took it into account when we designed the roof of the pavilion and even thought it through when we poured the concrete for the patios.
Tough day at work? Come home to this.

"Unbelievable experience with Rock N Block. We went back and forth for a while on if we wanted to do turf or just continue to try and grow grass in our small front yard. Ultimately, the dog tracking in mud this spring was a breaking point for us and we contacted Rock N Block. We started working with Paul, who walked us through the process and gave us a ton of ideas on how best to implement not only the turf, but other pieces of our yard as well. After we pulled the trigger on the turf, Paul was in close contact with us on the next steps and connected us with Chris, who came over for final measurements and day-of logistics. When it finally came to the day-of, Chris was on site with the crew and we were so happy with the speed, efficiency, and quality of the work. Tony, the crew lead, was amazing throughout the day and walking us through everything as they worked. Overall can’t recommend enough!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.

Environmental considerations include native plant selection, wildlife habitation, erosion prevention measures, and managing water runoff patterns to protect the lakefront ecosystem.

The best type of rock for landscaping depends on your specific project and needs, as different rocks are suited for different applications. For covering large areas or creating an affordable driveway, consider gravel, but note that it can wash away in flowing water. For water features, river rocks are a good option. Flagstone and cobblestone are ideal for aesthetically pleasing patios and walkways. If you are building a stone wall, fieldstone or small boulders are up to the task. Large boulders and landscape rocks work well as statement pieces, to fill empty space, or to indicate boundaries, but be mindful that they can overwhelm smaller gardens. The best approach is to first define your landscaping project and then select the rock type that best fits that purpose.

The best size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.

You can fill the holes weeds leave behind with soil or sand to avoid unsightly spots or tripping hazards. If you remove weeds from a grassy area, fill the hole with soil and grass seed, and water regularly to promote grass growth.
