I want to add value to my home
Landscaping is one of the (relatively) few big-ticket home improvement projects that can add significant value to your home and attract the attention of potential buyers. An investment in the skilled work of a landscaper is an investment in your home.
You care about the environment and want sustainable landscaping
Landscape architects are trained in sustainable practices, and some focus on sustainable landscape design. If what you want is a landscape that incorporates all the latest thinking in water and resource conservation, a landscape architect can help make it happen.
There are features that are difficult to solve
Need help designing a steep slope, rock wall, or other challenge? Landscape architects have the experience and know-how to approach a variety of field problems with creativity and innovation. Landscapers are also licensed to draw grading plans and may submit a sealed grading plan as part of the permit application package. RDKLandscaping used this sloping site to create a new front entrance and remodel the rock formations.
You live in a floodplain or other sensitive area
If your property is in a flood plain or includes some protected wetlands, you may want to consider involving a landscaper on the project. You may need to obtain sealed plans from your landscaper as they may contain stricter regulations and unusual requirements. Your landscape architect can come up with a solution that meets your requirements. Rainwater can safely enter the ground, for example the open paving grid shown here. RDKLandscaping designed a drought-tolerant landscape.
There is a risk of fire, hurricane, landslide, etc.
Between seasonal wildfires in drought-stricken Buffalo NY USA hurricanes, Mother Nature isn’t always so kind to human-built gardens and structures. If weather events are a concern where you are, it may be a good idea to hire a landscaper to assess your property and help you create a plan for a more robust garden design.

jackary Rootis2024-09-24I highly recommend them. Great crew, Super easy to work with. They’re doing a great job out here in East Amherst. Not only did I use them, but my neighbor and their son did as well and we couldn’t be happier.
DIANE Abram: Toot-Toot Daycare2024-09-21I hope these pictures speak for itself. I had called couple of companies to my property in Northampton, Buffalo, but only RDK Landscaping had come out so quick to give a quote for a project we started and couldn’t finish. They were so quick, efficient and had completed the project in about 2 days. They did a beautiful job, and answered all my questions throughout the entire process. I am so very thrilled about the results and could not recommend more! They are doing wonderful projects.
Dan Duggan2024-09-19RDK Landscaping did an amazing job! We had 8 dead ash trees at our property in Clarence that needed to be taken down given their proximity to the house and garage, in addition to two trees close to the power lines. I was very impressed with how quickly Roy and his team responded, came out to the property and got the job done. I would highly recommend them!
Andres Martinez2024-09-14Everybody at RDK Landscaping was a pleasure to deal with, we had a big project with them to clear up some really overgrown gardens beds around our garage, they went above and beyond making our space useable again. Once the project was complete they made sure to clean everything up and even cleared some weeds we had on our driveway that we hadn’t even mention to them. Can’t recommend them enough and will be calling them first for any future landscaping projects.
Esther Guess2024-09-12The guys were quick and effective at getting all that ivy down. Great work!
