Our designers carefully plan each bed, pathway, and planting area based on how you actually use your outdoor space, including movement patterns, seating areas, shade, and maintenance needs. We refine layouts to ensure smooth circulation, clear purpose for each area, and a balance between function and aesthetics so the space feels natural and practical. Once the design is finalized, our installation crews complete most projects in weeks, not months.
A 45-minute on-site walk-through where we sketch your new layout, talk plant choices suited to Belle Fourche, SD's climate, and give you a fixed-price proposal within 72 hours.
Every retaining wall, paver patio, and garden bed we install carries a multi-year workmanship guarantee.
Metro LawnCare Services was founded in response to a common problem in the landscaping industry: while many landscaping crews excel at installation work, they often have little or no formal training in landscape design. This can lead to projects being built without a clear, well thought out plan from the beginning. We decided to take a different approach. Instead of starting with the physical work right away, every project begins with careful planning and design. Before a single shovel touches the ground, a licensed landscape designer creates a detailed plan tailored to the project. By putting design first, we ensure that every outdoor space is thoughtfully planned before installation begins, creating a smoother process from concept to completion. This design driven approach is at the core of how Metro LawnCare Services delivers every project.

Real feedback from neighbors who trusted us to redesign their outdoor spaces.
The design process was seamless from start to finish. They listened to exactly what we wanted a low-maintenance garden that still looked intentional and delivered something that exceeded every expectation. The 3D preview before installation made us feel completely confident.
We needed a retaining wall on a slope that had been a drainage nightmare for years. Metro assessed the issue, submitted the permits themselves, and completed the wall in under two weeks. Our backyard is finally a usable space. Worth every cent.
I appreciated that their quote was fixed — no surprises on the final invoice. The crew was respectful, efficient, and cleaned up the site at the end of every single day. The patio they installed has become our family's favourite spot. Already planning phase two.
