Forti Landscape Inc

  • What services do you offer?

    We deliver comprehensive landscape design and hardscaping solutions, including custom patios, walkways, retaining walls, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, grading, drainage systems, planting design, sod installation, and complete landscape planning for properties throughout Marshfield and the South Shore area.
  • What is the difference between landscaping and hardscaping?

    Landscaping encompasses the living elements of your outdoor space such as plants, trees, lawns, and garden beds. Hardscaping involves non-living structural features including patios, stone walls, walkways, steps, driveways, and outdoor living structures. Most successful outdoor projects integrate both elements to create a harmonious and functional design.
  • Do you offer custom designs?

    Yes, we create custom designs for every project based specifically on your property characteristics, lifestyle needs, and budget considerations. Our design process takes into account important factors like drainage requirements, sun exposure patterns, traffic flow, and long-term maintenance needs.
  • Do you provide a design before construction?

    We certainly do. Each project includes a professional design (either conceptual or detailed, depending on the project scope) that allows you to visualize the final outcome before any construction begins. We're happy to make revisions until the design perfectly aligns with your vision.
  • How much does a hardscaping or landscape project cost?

    Project costs vary considerably based on size, material selection, existing site conditions, and design complexity. Following our on-site consultation, we'll provide you with a detailed estimate that clearly outlines all expected costs for your specific project.
  • How long does a typical project take?

    Project timelines depend on the scope of work involved: small patios or walkways typically require 3-7 days, medium landscaping projects take approximately 1-3 weeks, while large outdoor living spaces may extend to several weeks. Weather conditions and permitting requirements can also influence completion times.
  • Do you help with permits?

    Yes, we'll handle the permitting process or provide guidance through it when required. Our team ensures all work meets local regulations and passes necessary inspections for your peace of mind.
  • What materials do you use?

    We utilize high-quality materials including natural stone, pavers, concrete, brick, and premium landscape products. Our team will recommend materials that provide the ideal balance of durability, aesthetic appeal, and value for your specific project and budget.
  • Can you work with my existing landscape?

    Absolutely. We regularly enhance, renovate, and expand existing landscapes and hardscapes. When features of your current landscape are in good condition, we'll incorporate them into our design whenever possible to maximize value and maintain continuity.
