Ditch the High-Maintenance Lawn—Discover Smarter, Sustainable Ground Covers

Traditional grass lawns can be beautiful—but they also demand constant watering, mowing, fertilizing, and upkeep. If you're ready to trade in your high-maintenance lawn for something more sustainable, water-wise, and beautiful year-round, you're in the right place.

We specialize in lawn removal and the installation of low-maintenance ground covers and eco-friendly lawn alternatives that save time, reduce water use, and enhance the natural character of your outdoor space.

EDGE helps you choose the right lawn alternative for your lifestyle, climate, and budget—creating a landscape that's not only low-maintenance but beautiful and resilient, contact us today.

Why consider a lawn alternative?

  • Drought-tolerant & water-efficient: many traditional lawns require large amounts of water. Lawn alternatives like native ground covers and ornamental grasses thrive with far less irrigation.

  • Low maintenance: no more mowing, edging, or seasonal fertilizing. Lawn alternatives are perfect for homeowners who want beauty without the upkeep.

  • Environmentally friendly: less water, fewer chemicals, and more habitat for pollinators like bees and butterflies.

  • Aesthetic variety: with options in color, texture, height, and bloom, you can design a yard that looks vibrant and dynamic throughout the seasons.
