Whatever the yard needs to go from zero to finished.
- Clearing. Overgrowth, dead plants and junk out and hauled off.
- Hardscaping. Walkways, patios, gravel paths and retaining walls.
- Fences and structures. Fences, gates and pergolas, the bones that make a yard feel like a room.
- Planting. Gardens, trees, shrubs, flowers and pollinator friendly plants.
- Drainage. Fixing standing water before it ruins the new work.
- Finish. Sod, mulch or pine straw so it looks done on day one.
"Maybe you've got a jungle, maybe you just moved in and there's a blank slate. He can create anything you can dream of."Grant Wallace, on Mohammed, who leads our makeover crew
Mohammed handles the big transformations. Our other crews stay in their lanes too, so the person building your patio is the person who builds patios.
What we look at before we design a makeover.
How you want to use it.
A fire pit for six, a place for the dog, a garden, a yard you never think about. The answer drives everything.
The bones.
Slope, trees, drainage, fence line. We work with them instead of fighting them.
What can be saved.
A mature tree or a good patio is worth building around. We tell you what stays.
Budget and phasing.
We ask the number early so the plan fits it, and we split it into stages that each look finished.
What a makeover is like.
A makeover is a cleanup, a hardscape, planting and a finish, in that order. Mohammed leads it. You get a plan with a number and a timeline before anything starts.
Clearing and grading come first and look worse before they look better. Hardscape goes in next: paths, patio, fire pit, walls. Then plants, then mulch, sod or gravel.
Most backyard makeovers take one to three weeks depending on scope and weather. We walk it with you at the end, and we come back for anything that settles.
Makeovers that work on East Atlanta lots.
Grass does not grow under the oaks, so we stop trying. Gravel patio, stepping stones, shade beds and a fire pit turn a dead corner into the best part of the yard.
Terraced beds and a gravel pad flatten the usable part of a Grant Park or Ormewood yard without a retaining wall project.
Stepping stone paths and gravel turn the strip between houses from mud into a walk you actually use.

What neighbors say about the big jobs.
Nice people, quality work, fair pricing and responsive service. What more could you want? Grantlanta has done several big jobs for us in a particularly wild part of our yard, and they always work quickly and without hassle. We’re glad to hire them and support a local company.
Great landscaping service. I worked with Grant and Abe. Both were good at communicating. Abe and his crew fantastic and the result looks awesome. We had a bunch of rock dropped off and the delivery driver nicked our gate but Grant offered to repair it and ordered a replacement part for the fix. That's top notch.
LOVED working with Grantlanta. I worked with Zach B to get a huge, overgrown swath of my backyard fully cleared. Zach was diligent about communicating and scheduling, and was kind and knowledgeable. Grant himself also assisted in the clearing and hauling, which I really appreciated. All in all, an excellent experience and I’m excited to keep working with them in the future.
Makeover questions.
How much does an outdoor makeover cost?
It depends on the yard and what goes into it, which is why we quote in person. The estimate is free, and we can phase a bigger plan over time.
How long does a makeover take?
One to three weeks for most backyards, depending on scope and weather. You get a timeline with your estimate.
Do I need a design first?
No. We walk the yard with you, talk through how you want to use it, and build the plan from there.
Can it be done in phases?
Yes. A lot of makeovers happen over two or three seasons. We plan it so each phase looks finished on its own.
Do you build fire pits and patios?
Yes. Gravel and paver patios, fire pit areas, stepping stone and gravel paths, low walls and fences are all part of the makeover crew's work.
How do I pay?
Installation projects take a deposit to get on the schedule, and the balance is due when the job is done. We accept credit and debit cards, ACH, Venmo and Zelle.
