About Legacy Landscaping

Legacy Landscaping serves Colorado Springs and the surrounding Front Range area, offering a rare combination of tree services, full landscaping, and masonry work under one roof. That kind of versatility matters in a city where properties often need retaining walls, walkways, and mature tree care all at once. Colorado Springs sits at over 6,000 feet elevation, which means trees here face unique stressors like dry air, heavy snowfall, and high-altitude UV exposure. Legacy brings a multi-trade approach that fits well with how Colorado homeowners actually think about their outdoor spaces.

Services & Process

Legacy Landscaping handles tree trimming and removal alongside landscape design and masonry projects, which means a single crew can clear a damaged tree, regrade the area, and install a concrete border or retaining wall in one coordinated visit. Tree trimming in Colorado Springs often involves managing ponderosa pines and cottonwoods that grow quickly and drop heavy limbs in winter storms. Their masonry work typically includes concrete patios, walkways, and decorative rock features that complement the natural Colorado landscape. Stump removal is also part of their tree service offering, clearing the yard fully for new landscaping or hardscape installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Legacy Landscaping handle both tree removal and patio installation in the same project?
Yes, that's one of the practical advantages of working with a company that covers tree services and masonry together. They can remove a tree, grind the stump, and then build out a concrete patio or retaining wall in the cleared space, all coordinated through one point of contact.
Do Colorado Springs trees need different care than trees in lower-elevation parts of the state?
Absolutely. Trees in Colorado Springs deal with thinner air, intense sun, and dramatic temperature swings that can stress even established species. Proper trimming and health assessments are especially important here to catch early signs of disease or drought stress before they become serious problems.
What types of trees are most common in the Colorado Springs area?
Ponderosa pines are extremely common throughout the Pikes Peak region, along with cottonwoods near creek corridors and blue spruces in residential yards. Many homeowners also have ornamental species like maples or aspens that require different pruning approaches than native conifers.
How far in advance should I schedule tree trimming in Colorado Springs?
Spring and fall tend to be the busiest seasons for tree work, so booking two to four weeks ahead is smart if your project isn't urgent. Emergency storm damage is usually handled on a faster timeline, but routine trimming benefits from planning ahead.
Is a permit required for tree removal in Colorado Springs?
Most residential tree removals on private property don't require a permit in Colorado Springs, but removing trees in certain protected areas or near public right-of-ways can involve city approval. It's worth confirming with your provider before work begins if there's any question.
What's involved in stump grinding, and will it completely remove the stump?
Stump grinding uses a rotating cutting wheel to chip the stump down several inches below the soil surface, which is enough for grass to grow over it or for new landscaping to be installed on top. The roots below ground are left to decay naturally, so if you need full root removal, that's a separate and more intensive process to discuss with the crew.
