About Gordon's Landscaping

Gordon's Landscaping in Ann Arbor brings a broader skill set than a typical tree-only service, combining landscape design, installation, and tree care under one roof. For Ann Arbor homeowners who want their yard to look intentional, not just maintained, that combination matters. Working with a provider who does both landscaping and tree services means decisions about tree placement, removal, or canopy thinning are made with the overall landscape in mind, not just the immediate task.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a landscaping company also handle tree removal, or should I hire separately?
Many landscaping companies, including those with certified arborists or tree crews, handle tree removal as part of their services. Hiring one company for both can simplify scheduling and ensure the work is coordinated. Just confirm that the tree crew has the proper equipment and insurance before committing.
What does a landscape designer actually do differently from a regular landscaper?
A landscape designer creates a plan for your outdoor space before any work starts, taking into account things like drainage, sun exposure, plant selection, and how different elements will look together over time. A regular landscaper typically focuses on executing the physical work. Having design input first usually leads to better long-term results.
How do I know if a tree needs to be removed or just trimmed?
Signs that a tree may need removal include significant trunk decay, major structural damage, extensive dead branching throughout the canopy, or roots compromising a foundation or utility line. A professional assessment can tell you whether the tree is salvageable or whether removal is the safer and more cost-effective option.
Will removing a tree affect the rest of my landscaping?
It can, especially if the tree provided shade that nearby plants depended on. Removing a large tree can also change drainage patterns and expose areas of the yard to more wind. A landscaper or designer who's involved in the removal process can help you anticipate and plan for those changes.
How long does a typical landscaping and tree project take in Ann Arbor?
A straightforward tree removal takes a day or less, but if you're combining it with landscaping work like replanting, bed redesign, or grading, the project could span several days or be phased across multiple visits. A good provider will give you a clear timeline before work starts.
Is spring or fall better for starting a new landscaping project in Michigan?
Both seasons work well for different reasons. Spring planting lets new plants establish during the growing season, while fall is great for trees and shrubs because cooler temps reduce transplant stress. For tree removal and major structural changes, late fall through early spring is often preferred because frozen ground and bare trees make the work easier.
