    The Grounds Guys of Pflugerville have been taking care of my lawn since June 17, 2024, and I couldn’t be happier with their service. From day one, they’ve been consistently reliable, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. I want to give a huge Thank you to the entire team for their AMAZING customer service. Owners Jim and Tina truly set the tone with their responsiveness and commitment to quality. I also want to recognize Evie and Ale, Sol, and Colton, who always go above and beyond, pay attention to the details, and leave my yard looking fantastic after every visit. If you’re looking for a lawn maintenance company that genuinely cares about their customers and takes pride in their work, I highly recommend The Grounds Guys of Pflugerville.

    I had shopped around for a few companies to re-sod and setup irrigation. I ultimately ended up choosing Ground Guys and couldn't be happier with the work and service. They were Professional and Friendly and listened to all the concerns I had come up. Happy with the price and service. Long after the contract ended, they have continued to answer questions, offer advice, and have come by to ensure things are in working order. If you are looking for work on a landscaping project, I reccomend this company.

    Wow. I called Ground Guys to come out and prune our flowerbeds, clean up the leaves and weeds and then lay mulch along with trimming several trees. They came out within 24 hours and absolutely transformed our outdoor area. They were responsive, thorough and cleaned up everything so that we couldn't even tell work had been done. Just beautiful! Loved them

    Tanner and his crew at Ground Guys completely transformed our side yard, and we couldn't be happier with the outcome! This was our first time hiring professionals for a landscaping project, and they exceeded our expectations in every way. The entire process was smooth from start to finish, and the attention to detail really shows in the final result. It's amazing to see how much they transformed the space, and we're so excited to finally enjoy it. We're beyond happy with how everything turned out and already looking forward to tackling more yard projects with Tanner and his team this summer. Highly recommend!

    This is the most ethical and responsive landscaping company that I've ever worked with! Tanner goes above and beyond for his clients. He is very hands on and he physically comes out to the work sites himself. He is super communicative and that is unlike anything I've experienced from a landscaping company! He has helped me out with very last minute requests and found a way to work magic for me and it's so appreciated. He is very knowledgeable as well and I trust him wholeheartedly with my properties!

    After the ice storm we had a few years ago I needed a professional to reshape the trees in my front yard. Great folks, they took good care of my trees, gave me a fair price, and scheduled time when it would be healthiest to trim the trees. They made a special trip to offer an estimate and we agreed on how aggressive of a trim. They even sent me before and after photos.

    I have been more than pleased with the Ground Guys (Buda). Tanner and his team (including his wife April) are very knowledgeable in all areas. While initially contacting Ground Guys to replace my old lawn mowing service, I have expanded into de-weeding my flower beds, weed prevention and mulching. Future work will include Christmas lights and gutter clean outs. This team is really for "everything outside". So easy to deal with, professional and come when they say they'll come. A pleasure to work with. If you are looking for a full service "anything outside" company, this should be your choice. Just let them know what you need. Locally owned and operated. Highly recommended. You won't be disappointed. 5 stars.

    I cannot express how satisfied I have been with this company. I was so depressed with the state of my "brand new" yard when I reached out to Grounds Guys. I thought it was a goner and you all have brought it back to life. THANK YOU! This is a locally owned and operated company, husband and wife are the owners and they go above and beyond. I moved into a home with brand-new landscaping and it was ruined within one year. My grass was infested with weeds and had brown spots in areas where the previous landscaper would leave lawn clippings. Grounds Guys came out and gave my yard an evaluation. Tanner (Owner) explained the best course of action and gave me some price estimates. Within two months, my yard looks better than ever. Four stubborn weeds are refusing to vacate the premises and the crew that comes by has been pulling them when they sprout. We are now working on clearing out the mulch beds. Tanner has taken the time to explain the process to me and answers ALL of my questions. I also get follow-up emails after service has been provided from April (Owner), to verify that everything was up to my expectations. My lawn was sprayed for weeds and an extra process to kickstart the cleanup. The clippings were being bagged for two months and in July, the team began leaving clippings in the yard, to help nourish the landscaping. I was so sure that the team forgot that they were not supposed to bag because I didn’t see clippings the way that I had previously seen them. Again, the explanation was provided that the blades are kept so sharp, it doesn’t leave clumps of grass. This allows for my grass to keep getting the nutrients that it needs to thrive. I appreciate the quality of service from Grounds Guys and I am no longer embarrassed to send my Green-Thumbed Momma pictures of my yard! She also approves!!

    Tanner and his team at The Ground Guys have been nothing short of exceptional! We're incredibly grateful to have found them. We've invested a lot into our yard and needed expert help to maintain our grass and plants. The Ground Guys handle everything we need with remarkable efficiency and reliability. I have complete confidence in their ability to do the job right. Their communication is superb, and they meticulously oversee every detail of our yard. Impressively, they even corrected and replanted a tree that had been improperly planted by another company. Their dedication to customer satisfaction is unparalleled. I highly recommend The Ground Guys for any landscaping services you may need.

    I recently had the pleasure of working with Tanner and The Grounds Guys for a landscaping project at 2 of our Fire stations in Buda, Texas, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of outstanding.

They took the time to understand my vision and offered valuable suggestions that enhanced the overall design. Their knowledge of plants, materials, and landscaping techniques was impressive.

The Grounds Guys ensured that every plant was perfectly pruned, every stone bed was correctly filled, and every inch of the lawn they touched was immaculate. Their commitment to quality was evident in the flawless execution of the design. Timeliness and Efficiency: One of the standout qualities of The Grounds Guys was their punctuality and efficiency. They completed the project on schedule without compromising on quality. The team worked diligently and maintained a clean and organized workspace throughout the process.

They were always available to address my questions and concerns, and their friendly demeanor made the entire process enjoyable. Their dedication to customer satisfaction was truly commendable.

    The Ground Guys were wonderful. I chose The Ground Guys because they have a 5.0 rating online. I was gifting two planted pear trees to my daughter in Bee Cave while I was in Houston. Everything was done over the phone and the results were perfect. Larry found and chose two BEAUTIFUL and healthy trees for us. The men came as planned and cleaned up perfectly. They even took away some old large tree branches from my daughter’s backyard that she didn’t know how to get rid of. My daughter will be calling them for help with other issues in their yard. Thank you Ground Guys!!!?

    I am absolutely thrilled with how my courtyard turned out! The astroturf installation looks fantastic and completely transformed the space. Everything was done professionally, efficiently, and with great attention to detail. The crew was punctual, respectful, and left the area spotless when they were finished. From start to finish, the process was smooth and stress-free, and the results exceeded my expectations. My courtyard is now beautiful, functional, and low-maintance-exactly what I wanted. I would highly recommend them to anyone considering astroturf or outdoor improvements. Truly five-star work!

    We recently had permanent lights installed by The Grounds Guys, and they did a fantastic job.

    We’ve loved working with The Grounds Guys of Lakeway and Bee Cave! Their team brought our lawn back to life with their turf care program and regular maintenance — it’s green, healthy, and finally weed-free. They also helped us design and install new landscape beds with beautiful Texas-friendly plants and trees around our front entrance and pool area. And to top it off, they just custom-fitted holiday lights to our home, which look incredible. Couldn’t recommend them more!

Frequently Asked Questions About Landscape Design in Austin, TX

As an industry leader, The Grounds Guys are committed to using our 20+ years of lawn care and landscape knowledge and experience to help bring the vision for their property to life. This includes answering your questions about landscape and lawn care services. Below are answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about landscape design.

  • Landscape design starts with a consultation and careful site analysis. Next, we draft concept sketches, refine them through revisions, and finalize a design that includes plant selections and materials. Depending on project scope and season, most installations take between 1 and 6 weeks. Your package may come with a measured base map, planting plan, material specs, lighting and irrigation notes, and 2D or 3D renderings so you can see the design clearly. When planning landscaping design in Austin, TX, the timeline will be shaped by local climate, soil, and building codes. Permits, HOA approvals, and custom materials can add 2—6 weeks, while simpler projects with readily available materials can proceed much faster. With complete documents, The Grounds Guys can provide a quote and schedule the landscape installation. Weather conditions and supplier schedules can affect when crews are available; installations may be planned seasonally for optimal results.

  • The materials you choose for your landscaping project depend largely on your budget. From luxurious natural stone and fine hardwoods to practical concrete pavers, composite materials, or gravel, you have many options. Don’t just focus on the price tag—consider the lifetime costs, including upkeep, water consumption, and replacement schedules. Selecting hardy plants and efficient watering systems can minimize future expenses and protect your investment. Consider a phased approach if your budget is tight. Essential elements like proper drainage and sod installation can provide immediate benefits while you plan future phases. This strategy lets you enjoy your space right away while working toward your complete landscape design vision. Our experienced landscaping professionals can align your plan with your budget, offering good, better, and best options along with creative swaps that keep your design stylish. We can make landscape design in Austin, TX, more cost-efficient than you might think!

  • Your installed landscape’s maintenance needs depend on the specific landscaping design elements and installation methods used. For instance, following sod installation, expect several weeks of careful watering and monitoring, then transition to standard lawn maintenance routines. Hardscape elements require less frequent attention, typically needing annual cleaning and occasional sealing or minor repairs. Forward-thinking landscape designers incorporate maintenance considerations into initial landscaping design plans. Choosing appropriate plants for your climate and soil conditions, along with efficient irrigation systems, can significantly reduce ongoing care demands while maintaining beautiful results. Professional landscape designers can minimize maintenance demands through strategic landscaping design choices while still creating beautiful, functional outdoor spaces. Understanding landscape design in Austin, TX, helps ensure maintenance recommendations work with your local conditions and lifestyle preferences.

  • Absolutely! Sustainable landscaping design focuses on native plants, efficient water usage, and eco-friendly materials that work naturally with your local environment. Water conservation plays a huge role in eco-friendly landscape installation. Smart irrigation systems, rain gardens, and strategic plant placement minimize water waste while keeping your landscape healthy. Even sod installation can be environmentally conscious when you choose native grass varieties that require less water and fertilizer than traditional turf options. An experienced landscape designer can incorporate sustainable elements that reduce water usage, eliminate chemical runoff, and provide habitat for beneficial wildlife. Choosing locally adapted plants, recycled materials, and energy-efficient lighting reduces your landscape’s carbon footprint while creating stunning visual results. Understanding sustainable practices for landscape design in Austin, TX, helps ensure your green choices succeed in local growing conditions. Experienced landscape designers can create eco-conscious outdoor spaces that look amazing while protecting natural resources.

  • We provide complete project management for your landscaping design, handling everything from demolition and grading to final landscape installation and cleanup. Our team uses an integrated approach to landscape installation to ensure all elements work together harmoniously. Your landscape designer maintains full oversight to ensure seamless integration of all project components and adherence to our craftsmanship standards.
