Residential Landscaping Services & Outdoor Living • Local Branches in Cleveland and Columbus.

Residential Landscaping and Outdoor Living Spaces

A great outdoor space starts with one plan. When the patio, the pool, the plantings, and the lighting are designed together, every piece fits the first time.

Exscape Group designs, builds, and then cares for a property as one project, in one conversation, with the same team you will still be calling in five years.

Residential Landscaping That Accounts for the Whole Property

Every feature in your yard connects to something else.

What goes in underground decides what can sit on top of it. Designed as one property, the order takes care of itself. Designed piece by piece, finished work has to come back up to make room for what comes next.

What We Handle

How Exscape Group Operates on Your Property

01.

One person who knows your property.

You get a single point of contact who stays with your account year-round. Not a rotating queue, not a different name on every email.

02.

The crew serving you is based in your market.

Our branches cover Greater Cleveland and Columbus, so the team on your property is local to it. Local presence is how the company was built, not a byproduct of getting bigger.

03.

Every visit gets written down.

After a service visit you hear what the crew saw, whether it was expected or not. Property history lives in one shared system across every branch, not in one person's truck.

04.

We are still here after the install.

When the first fall arrives and you are wondering what to cut back and what to leave, someone answers. The team that builds your space is the team that cares for it.

05.

We will tell you if we are not the right fit.

If your project is smaller, we will tell you plainly rather than take three weeks to not call you back.

Who We Work With

Homeowners planning real projects on properties they intend to keep, at a scale that changes how the whole property is used. People who want the design conversation to happen before the digging, and who would rather have one company answerable for the outcome than four estimates to reconcile.

Snow and ice management is offered for commercial properties only, so we are not the right call for residential driveway plowing.

Reviews from the companies that came together as Exscape Group.

How a Residential Project Takes Shape

We walk the property with you.

Not only the corner you called about. The whole site, including the parts that will affect what you can build later.

You see the plan and the budget in the same conversation.

No reveal, no build-up, no discovering the budget at the end of a presentation. This is also where phasing gets decided if the property is going to come together over more than one season.

Stay with the team that built it.

The team that builds or services your property keeps the account. You get one contact, documented visits, and a straight answer when you have a question in year three.

Good Questions, Straight Answers

  • Most clients do not. We design the property as a whole, then build it in phases in an order that does not create rework, so the patio does not get torn up in year three to run a gas line to the fire pit.
  • Design-build projects are typically scheduled a season ahead, and the best time to start a conversation about next spring is the fall before it. Design work happens over winter, which is when there is time to get it right.
  • That is a common starting point, particularly on properties where the original company is gone. We walk the site, document what is there, and tell you what it needs before quoting an ongoing schedule.
  • Greater Cleveland and Greater Columbus, through branches based in each market.

Start With the Whole Property

The first conversation is about the property, not the product.
