Karl & Sons Landscaping, Inc.

Karl & Sons Landscaping works out of Westwood, handling the whole outside of a property — design and planting, maintenance, irrigation, masonry, patios, outdoor rooms, water features and lighting — on residential and commercial jobs alike. Its Houzz profile puts the company at more than 30 years in the trade, and the service list there runs from paver patios and custom fire pits to fence installation, brick masonry and landscape lighting. That range fits a homeowner planning a yard as one project rather than hiring a separate crew for the patio, the lighting and the planting. Before signing, ask which of those pieces the company self-performs and which it subcontracts, pin down what a maintenance visit covers if you want the property kept up, and confirm licensing, insurance and a couple of recent local references.
