West Melbourne has grown faster than almost anywhere in Brevard, and most of our work here is on homes under fifteen years old. That means blank canvases: bare side yards, sod-only backyards, and builder patios barely big enough for a grill.
It also means water. Much of the newer development west of I-95 sits on former pasture and low ground, so where water goes after a storm shapes the patio and the planting as much as anything else.

What we plan around in West Melbourne
| Low ground and standing water | Flat lots hold water after summer storms. We pitch every patio and walkway so it sheds water away from the house, and we fill low spots with rock beds and plants that tolerate wet feet. |
|---|---|
| Minimal builder landscape | Two shrubs and a palm at closing is standard. A full front-yard landscape design is the most visible change we make on these lots. |
| Fences on tight lot lines | Privacy and pet fences in growing neighborhoods take a beating from storms and dogs. We repair wood and chain-link fences: boards, pickets, rails, posts and sagging gates. |
Questions we get in West Melbourne
What can you do about water in a West Melbourne backyard?
We pitch any new patio or walkway so it carries water away from the house, and we plant low spots with species that handle wet feet or turn them into rock beds. If the whole lot sits underwater for days, that is a bigger question than landscaping can answer, and we will tell you so at the walk-through.
Do you repair fences in West Melbourne?
Yes, wood and chain-link. We replace broken boards and pickets, reset leaning posts, and fix gates that drag or won't latch.
Do you give written estimates for front-yard landscaping?
Yes. We walk the property with you and give you a written, itemized estimate at no cost.
