Caleb's Landscaping & Excavating provides landscape installation services for homeowners across Union Grove, Huntsville, Decatur, Madison, and the surrounding communities. Whether you're starting with a blank lot after clearing or reworking an existing yard that never quite came together, we build outdoor spaces that hold up to Alabama summers and the occasional heavy rain.
A lot of homeowners in this area deal with red clay soil, uneven grading, or drainage issues that make a DIY landscape project frustrating. We solve those problems first, then install the plants, hardscape, and turf that make a yard livable and low-maintenance.
Landscape installation matters most for new construction lots that need everything from grading to greenery, and for established homes ready for a landscape renovation after years of neglect or storm damage. Either way, we design and build it as one connected project instead of a patchwork of separate contractors.

Every yard is different, so we scope each project around your goals, budget, and how you actually plan to use the space. Common work includes:
We coordinate the dirt work, grading, and drainage solutions ahead of time so nothing shifts, pools, or washes out after the project is done.

A lot of landscaping companies only handle plants and mulch, then leave the grading, drainage, and heavy equipment work to someone else. We run our own excavation equipment and landscaping crews, so your project moves from dirt to finished yard without gaps between contractors.
We've worked clay-heavy soil and rolling terrain from Union Grove to Guntersville, so we know what drains well, what holds a slope, and what plants actually thrive here without constant babying.
Our crews bring the same excavating and grading equipment used for site prep to landscape installation projects, so grading, drainage lines, and retaining walls get built right the first time.
You won't juggle a grading contractor, a plant nursery, and a patio crew separately. We manage the full landscape installation as one project with one point of contact.
Every project follows the same basic process, though the details change based on your yard's size, slope, and current condition.
We walk the property with you to talk through goals, budget, and how the space will get used, whether that's a fire pit for weekend gatherings or a full front yard renovation.
We map out plant placement, hardscape layout, and any grading or drainage work needed so water flows away from the house and foundation instead of pooling in the yard.
Our crew handles grading, drainage, patios, walkways, retaining walls, sod or turf, and plant beds in sequence, so each phase supports the next instead of undoing prior work.
We walk the finished space with you, confirm everything matches the plan, and cover basic care so new plants, sod, and mulch beds establish well through the first season.
Some properties need clearing or cleanup before a landscape installation can begin. These services set the stage for a clean, buildable yard.

Overgrown land, brush, and unwanted trees removed to open up your property for landscaping, construction, or general property cleanup.

Mulching services that clear brush and small trees in place, leaving behind a layer of natural mulch instead of debris that needs hauling off.

Removal of thick brush, vines, and undergrowth so your yard or lot is ready for grading, planting, or the next phase of your landscape project.
Cost depends on yard size, current grading, how much dirt work or drainage correction is needed, and which features you choose. A project with sod installation and a few shrub beds costs far less than one with a patio, fire pit, retaining wall, and full plant installation. We provide a written estimate after walking the site so you know exactly what's included.
Smaller projects like mulch installation or a shrub bed refresh can wrap up in a day or two. Larger jobs involving grading, patio installation, retaining walls, and full sod or turf coverage usually run one to three weeks depending on scope and weather. We give you a realistic timeline before work begins.
Some counties and municipalities in North Alabama require permits for permanent fire pits or retaining walls over a certain height. We check local requirements as part of the planning process, so you know what applies to your property before work begins.
A landscape renovation usually means reworking an existing yard, tearing out old beds, dead sod, or a failing patio, and rebuilding it correctly. A new installation typically starts on a cleared or graded lot with no existing landscaping to remove. Either way, our landscaping company handles the grading, drainage, and finish work as one project.
Your yard doesn't have to stay a work in progress. Call (256) 558-1204 or request a free estimate, and we'll walk your property in Union Grove or the surrounding area to map out a landscape installation plan built around how you actually want to use your outdoor space.
