Landscaping in Chalfont, PA

We work throughout Chalfont Borough and out into New Britain Township, Warrington and the neighborhoods along Route 202 and Route 152. Property types run the full range here, from older borough homes on modest lots near the train station to larger township properties with real acreage.

The older borough properties tend to need restoration work more than new installation. Stone walls that need repointing, walkways that have settled, foundation beds that were planted forty years ago and have long outgrown the house, and lawns sitting on soil that has never been amended. The township properties are more often about managing scale: keeping several acres looking maintained without the cost getting out of hand.

If there is one issue that comes up more than any other in Chalfont, it is water. The soil here is silt loam over clay and shale. It absorbs slowly, saturates fast and then sheds everything that falls afterward. Add a few decades of settling around older foundations and you get wet basements, soggy lawns and patios that never dry out.

The fix is almost always grade and conveyance rather than absorption. Get water moving away from the structure, give it a defined route off the property, and only then worry about what grows on top of it. We would rather solve that first and plant second, even if it makes the first invoice less exciting.

Starting as a turf company in 1982 and growing into full-service landscaping, hardscaping, irrigation, lighting, tree work and snow management has taken a long time and a lot of repeat clients. A good portion of the properties we maintain in Chalfont we have maintained for decades.

That is the part of the business we are proudest of.
