Our Approach

Transforming Properties Into Exceptional Outdoor Spaces.

North Ridge is a design-build landscape studio in East Greenwich. Our designers, horticulturists and installation crews work as one team, so the plan you approve is the landscape we build, down to the stone, the soil and the spacing of every plant.

We design for how a property is actually used and for how it will look in ten years, not only on installation day: the right plant in the right place, solid bases under every patio, and drainage planned before the first shovel.

01

Design-led

Every project begins with a scaled plan and a considered planting palette.

02

Built to last

Proper bases, regional stone and plants suited to coastal New England.

03

Cared for

Seasonal care that lets the design mature the way it was intended.

What We Do

Six disciplines, one considered landscape.

Design, construction and care under one roof, so the people who draw the plan stay with it until the last plant is in the ground, and long after.

Landscape Design

Master plans, planting plans and 3D concepts that organise the whole property, from the arrival to the back fence. We survey, measure and design before anything is priced.

Our Design Process

From first walk-through to first evening outside.

Four clear stages, one team, and no surprises along the way.

01

Consultation

We walk the property with you, listen to how you want to use it, and talk honestly about budget, phasing and timing.

On site · No charge
02

Design

Our designers survey the site and develop a scaled plan, planting palette and 3D concept, refined with you until it is right.

2–4 weeks
03

Build

Our own crews install everything to the plan, with a dedicated project lead, tidy daily sites and protected lawns and beds.

Dedicated project lead
04

Enjoy

We walk the finished landscape together, hand over a care guide, and stay on for seasonal maintenance if you would like.

Why North Ridge

A studio’s eye, a builder’s hands.

Most firms either design or build. We do both, which means fewer handoffs, fewer surprises, and a finished landscape that looks the way it did on paper.

Experienced Landscape Designers

Degreed designers who survey, plan and see every project through to planting.

Quality Materials

Regional stone, nursery-grown plants and proven base materials, specified by name.

Detailed Planning

Scaled drawings, grading and drainage worked out before any digging starts.

Professional Installation

Our own trained crews, not subcontractors, led by a dedicated project lead.

Locally Owned

A Rhode Island company since 2008, working within an hour of our East Greenwich yard.

Personalized Service

One point of contact, honest timelines and a design shaped around your life.

Before & After

A bare lot, reimagined.

This fenced yard in Warwick had nothing but tired lawn. We regraded it, laid a large-format stone terrace, added a steel pergola and softened the edges with layered planting.

After: stone terrace with pergola, lounge seating and layered planting Before: plain fenced lawn with no planting or patio Before After

Client Stories “

North Ridge took a sloped, unusable backyard and turned it into the place our family spends every summer evening. Three years on, it only gets better.

★★★★★

Our designer understood how we actually live. The terrace, the lighting and the planting all feel like they were always part of the house.

★★★★★

A clean site every day, a project lead who answered every question, and they finished the week they said they would.

David Chen

★★★★★

We came for a patio and left with a whole-property plan we can build in phases. No pressure, just genuinely good advice.
