Petersen Landscaping and Design is a professional design/build landscape company located in Cheshire County, NH. We specialize in custom hardscapes, complete landscape designs, landscaping in Keene NH, site planning and development, outdoor living spaces, tree and shrub design, and landscape maintenance. We have over 20 years of experience installing landscapes involving stonework, retaining walls, patios, walkways, drainage solutions, outdoor living spaces, excavation, shrub planting, tree installations, and landscape renovations. We work with our customers from the initial site meeting to project completion. We thrive on developing long-term working relationships with all of our customers. Over 75% of our business is either repeat customers or referrals from existing customers.

Project Planning

Landscaping involves extensive planning, designing, and execution to achieve the perfect outcome. We work with our customers every step of the way to make sure there is not a single detail over looked. Along with our design services, we work with local landscape architects, architects, and engineers to assure our clients that every aspect of their project is planned out before landscape construction begins.

Free Job Proposals

All site meetings, estimates, and landscaping proposals are free of charge. If design time is preferred to get a better vision of the project, an hourly rate may be applied.

Design Process

Once we have met with our customers on site we can develop a vision for their new landscape! Our designs incorporate details on drainage, sitework, hardscapes, water features, and planting details. Every landscape we install is unique its own way. We work with the layout of the land to develop a plan that works with the existing natural layout and deal with any limitations you may have. Our designs start with general sketches and then move toward a final plan once we have received our customer's feedback. Our landscape plans aim to achieve short term and long term goals for your property according to personal budgets and timelines.

Proper Permits and Site Plans

In some cases proper permits for the state, town, shoreline, and wetlands must be completed before construction can begin. Either we or one of our local professionals will handle permitting as it can get confusing sometimes for our customers.

Landscape Construction and Installation

Once all designs and permits(if needed) have been completed the project can begin. We take great pride in installing every landscape to the highest quality possible. We are extremely passionate about what we do and take the necessary time to complete every project correctly. We handle every aspect of construction projects including hardscape installations, water feature construction, plantings, sitework, drainage systems, and stone masonry. We work the best local sub contractors including elcetricians, plumbers, masons, excavators, and carpenters.

Landscape Maintenance After Installation

Once your projects have been completed its very important to keep them properly maintained. New England is known for various weather conditions that could eventually leave your property look visually "un kept" if it is not properly maintained. We either provide a maintenance schedule or can recommend a local professional to handle all your landscape maintenance needs.
