Reliable Birmingham Landscapers

If you’re looking for the best landscaping Birmingham has to offer, look no further!  Effective landscaping can mean the difference between having just a yard, and having a lawn you are proud of. J & M Landscapes does more than just plant trees, shrubs, flowers, ground cover, and grass; we create a landscape design tailored to your individual property in an organized, well-designed fashion.

We strive to create maximum visual interest when planning a new landscape installation. Hard lines around a house and other existing structures may be softened through the careful use of gently curved beds and sidewalks. By placing larger shrubs and plants behind smaller ones, your landscape is given depth. We can introduce a wide range of flowering shrubs, bulbs, perennials, and annuals into your lawn and flower beds, adding color and brightness throughout the growing season.

Whether you have a specific design in mind or you have no idea what would look best, we will work with you to build the perfect lawn for your needs and wants.  From the initial design, to installation, and to lawn maintenance, we want to be the landscaping company in Birmingham you can depend on to keep your lawn looking its best all year long.  Our family owned company has been providing quality landscaping services in Birmingham for over 25 years, and we would love the opportunity to help turn your yard into something you can be proud of.  Call us today to schedule a consultation!

Birmingham's Best Landscaping Company

For areas of your yard that may be rocky or have less-than-ideal growing conditions, a spreading ground cover is an ideal solution. Laying sod may be the perfect solution to quickly establish grass in sparse areas of your landscape. We will prepare the soil, till the ground to remove old clumps of grass, then put down an even layer of topsoil. Once fertilizer is applied, we can then start laying sod, pressing the pieces firmly into the dirt. It will then be important to thoroughly water new sod every day for two weeks, ensuring your new lawn is properly established.

​When selecting different varieties of plants, it is important to consider how much sun different areas of your yard receive and when. It is also important to know the soil’s pH and composition in determining which plants will flourish. As a local landscaper, we are familiar with Alabama’s growing conditions and which plants are best suited to your particular area. Knowing the mature size of plants, and the space, light, and soil conditions needed to ensure they thrive enable us to design a beautiful landscape you will enjoy for years.

​Incorporating a small pond or above ground water feature is another way to bring interest and tranquility to your landscape design. We will help you determine a location best suited for a fountain, waterfall, or pond. It’s important that the area allows for proper drainage and will not be under any large trees that will continually fill the pond with leaves.
