Question 1

What materials are best for custom paver patio installation in St. Louis County?

Accepted Answer

High-durability interlocking concrete pavers and natural stone are the best materials for St. Louis patios due to their ability to withstand severe freeze-thaw cycles. Unlike poured concrete, paver systems flex with ground movement to prevent cracking and feature built-in drainage channels.

Question 2

Why are structural retaining walls necessary for sloped St. Louis yards?

Accepted Answer

Retaining walls prevent severe soil erosion, control heavy stormwater runoff, and transform unusable sloped terrain into flat, functional outdoor space. We construct engineered block and natural stone walls built with deep gravel bases and integrated drainage pipes to resist clay soil pressure.

Question 3

What features can be built into a custom outdoor kitchen?

Accepted Answer

Custom outdoor kitchens can feature built-in gas grills, smoker stations, prep counters, outdoor fridges, pizza ovens, and granite bar tops. Built on heavy-duty stone or masonry bases, these units are fully weather-sealed to handle midwest summer heat and winter freezing.

Question 4

Do you service all municipalities in St. Louis County and handle local permits?

Accepted Answer

Yes, GreenScene Landscapes services all of St. Louis County—including Chesterfield, Ladue, Kirkwood, Wildwood, Town and Country, and Creve Coeur—and manages all local permits. We handle municipal setback requirements, utility line clearance, and structural compliance before work begins.

Question 5

How do you select plants for landscape design in St. Louis soil?

Accepted Answer

We choose hardy native Missouri plants, ornamental grasses, and evergreen shrubs specifically cultivated to thrive in St. Louis clay soil and extreme seasonal climate shifts. Our softscape plans balance continuous seasonal bloom times with low-maintenance growth habits.
