Expert Landscape Design to Complete Your Outdoor Oasis in Charlotte & Raleigh
The perfect landscape is the living, breathing element that ties your entire outdoor living space together. At SunSouth Carolinas, we believe that a stunning patio or pool is only truly complete when it’s complemented by thoughtful landscape design. Our expert team integrates beautiful softscaping—from elegant palms to vibrant flowerbeds—as the essential finishing touch to our premier hardscaping projects.
Landscaping as Part of a Greater Vision
To provide a seamless, high-quality experience, SunSouth Carolinas specializes in offering landscape design and installation as a comprehensive component of our major hardscaping projects (such as pools, patios, and outdoor kitchens). Our goal is to create a unified outdoor environment where the “hardscape” and “softscape” are designed in harmony. Please note, we do not offer standalone lawn maintenance, mowing, or planting-only services.

Why Our Integrated Approach Creates a Better Result
By designing the hardscape and landscape elements together, we deliver a more thoughtful, harmonious, and ultimately more beautiful final product for your home.
A Unified Vision
Our designers consider your entire backyard from the very beginning, ensuring the placement of plants, trees, and turf perfectly complements the layout of your new patio or pool.
Problem-Solving with Plants
We expertly use landscaping to enhance your space. This can include planting for privacy around a pool, using greenery to soften a retaining wall, or designing beds that add seasonal color.
Right Plant, Right Place
With a deep understanding of the Carolina climate, we help you select beautiful, sustainable plants, trees, and shrubs that will thrive in your yard and complement your lifestyle.
Protecting Your Investment
We plan for the future. Our designs account for root systems and mature plant sizes to ensure they won’t interfere with your hardscape’s foundation in the years to come.
