Stephen A. Roberts Landscape Architecture & Construction

From our design studio, our projects are handed over to our construction crew. The project designer checks in with the crew daily and helps with any questions that may arise. This insures that the vision that was created in the studio does not get lost in the field!

Because our designers stay involved, our projects continue to get tweaked and altered until the maximum effect has been achieved.

We pay close attention to small details that give our projects a distinct feel. From the height of a bench, to the width of a path, all the details are important. We also take care to insure that the technical aspects are installed correctly, which may involve back-filling a wall properly, or checking the pitch of a patio. To us, all layers of the design are important and integral to a project's success.

Demolition of existing walls or structures. Removal or pruning of vegetation. Stripping and stockpiling of topsoil.

• Inspection and inventory:
We inspect the site to ensure that it is free from debris, and that the materials specified in the plans are accounted for. We meet with the client to answer questions regarding plant care, irrigation or lighting operation. We make sure the customer is satisfied and happy with the project.
