Updating your landscape can include new plantings, paver walkways, retaining walls, patios, lighting, and drainage improvements. At Conley Lawn & Landscape, we design remodels that blend aesthetics with practicality, using quality materials and professional installation to maximize curb appeal and property value.

An outdoor living space is a custom-designed extension of your home’s lifestyle—combining functionality and comfort to create a space for relaxing, entertaining, and dining. Unlike a simple patio or deck, it often includes features like covered pergolas, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, lighting, audio systems, and weatherproof furniture. At Conley lawn and landscape, we don’t just pour concrete or lay pavers—we design complete environments tailored to how you live. It’s about blending indoor luxury with outdoor freedom, turning underused backyards into true extensions of your home.

Preventing erosion requires proper grading, retaining walls, and drainage planning. Installing hardscapes with attention to water flow, using soil stabilization methods, and adding strategic plantings all help minimize erosion while keeping your yard attractive and functional.

We start with an in-depth consultation to understand your goals, preferences, and lifestyle. From there, our team creates a scope of work outline that breaks down your entire project with its landscape design layout. We also offer optional 2d and 3d renderings if desired. You’ll have a chance to revise and collaborate before construction begins. Our process ensures clear communication, stunning craftsmanship, and timely execution—backed by our experience in outdoor architecture and customer satisfaction in Franklin, TN.

Many homeowners underestimate factors like drainage, sun exposure, material durability, and seasonal use. Others focus only on aesthetics without considering functionality or long-term maintenance. At Conley Lawn and Landscape, we blend beauty with practicality. For example, we consider how the Tennessee heat will affect materials or whether your space needs shade, lighting, or screens for year-round enjoyment. A well-designed space balances comfort, flow, and functionality—not just visual appeal.

In Franklin and Middle Tennessee, popular low-maintenance plants include Boxwoods, Holly's, Hydrangeas, Laurels, Nandinas, Euonymus, ornamental grasses, and native shrubs that tolerate clay soil and seasonal temperature swings. At Conley Lawn & Landscape, we design planting layouts based on sun exposure, drainage conditions, and long-term growth to ensure healthy, balanced landscapes.

Hardscaping such as patios, retaining walls, and walkways should typically be installed first to establish structure and proper grading. Plantings and softscape elements are then added to complement the layout and enhance the finished design. This sequence ensures long-term stability and a cohesive outdoor space.

A properly engineered retaining wall built with quality materials and correct drainage can last 25–50 years or more. Longevity depends on soil conditions, water management, and installation standards — which is why professional design and construction are essential.

Flagstone walkways offer a natural, organic appearance with unique stone variation, making them ideal for custom backyard landscapes. Pavers provide a more uniform look and can be a great option for structured patios or driveways. Both options are durable when installed correctly with proper base preparation and edge restraint.
