Landscaping and hardscaping in Gibsonia
Gibsonia sits largely in Richland Township, where North Hills suburbia starts running out into more open ground. Properties vary considerably over short distances.
That variation means there is no standard Gibsonia job. Wooded lots need shade and root-competition planning; the more open ones have exposure to design for and room for structure a tight lot could never carry.
What most share is gradient and ageing drainage — enough fall to need retaining before a patio is level, and systems sized for smaller roofs and shorter driveways than now feed them.
This is established housing stock, so renovation is as common here as new installation.

Questions we get from Gibsonia
Is Gibsonia in Richland Township?
Mostly, yes. Both have pages and we work across them.
The same patch dies every year. Why?
Standing water. Reseeding will not fix it; drainage will.

It varies street to street here. We will tell you on site.
Can an old sleeper wall be rebuilt?
