A working portfolio of completed retaining walls, paver and exposed aggregate patios, full landscape installations, and concrete work across Pittsburgh's South Hills. Every project on this page was designed, excavated, and finished by our own crews.
Most landscape projects in Pittsburgh touch three or four different trades, excavation, hardscape, planting, finishing. We self-perform all of them, which keeps schedules tight and quality consistent from the dig to the final mulch.
Versa-Lok, Techo-Bloc, and Rosetta Outcropping walls with proper base prep, drainage, and Geogrid reinforcement. Built for Pittsburgh's hillsides and clay soils.
See wall builds 02Paver patios, exposed aggregate, and broom-finish concrete. Compacted base, polymeric joints, and edge restraints, the details that determine whether a patio lasts twenty years.
See patio builds 03Concrete driveways, exposed aggregate borders, walkways, and footings, including utility line replacement and permits with Allegheny County when the job calls for it.
See concrete builds 04Perennials, shrubs, ornamental trees, decorative stone, and mulch, sized to the home and chosen for long-term performance in our climate.
See planting work 05Rock-hounded grades, fresh topsoil, Penn State seed mixed with mushroom manure, or sod when the timeline calls for it. New construction and lawn renovation both welcome.
See lawn work 06Grading, French drains, downspout tie-ins, hillside cuts for retaining walls, and tear-outs of failing hardscape. The foundation under every good landscape.
See excavation workWe stick to manufacturers and material specs that hold up. Most of these names show up across multiple projects in the gallery above, Bethel Park, North Huntingdon, and Pleasant Hills all use materials from this list.
Segmental retaining wall block we use for taller tiered walls and projects that need engineered reinforcement.
Pavers, slabs, and wall units when the design calls for a refined modern look with a strong color palette.
Cast-stone boulders that read as natural rock. Used in the Bethel Park feature project for two tiered hillside walls.
Buried tensile grid that ties wall block back into the hillside. The reason walls actually stay where you put them.
Standard, decorative, and two-tone borders. The Pleasant Hills driveway uses a vibrant red aggregate border around a broom-finish slab.
Mixed with mushroom manure and laid over fresh topsoil. The lawn at the North Huntingdon project was started this way.
Cobble-style border between lawn and bed. A clean, permanent edge that holds its shape through Pittsburgh freeze-thaw.
Black granite, river rock, and locally sourced boulders for dry creek beds, accent borders, and naturalized hillside transitions.
Every project in the gallery above ran through the same four phases. The order matters, half the reason landscape work fails early is that someone skipped a step at the start.
An on-site walk-through, conversation about how you actually use the yard, and a look at grade, drainage, and existing materials that can stay.
A scoped plan with material selections, a clear price, and a sequence the crews can build from. No mystery line items.
Excavation, base prep, hardscape, plantings, performed by our own crews. Permits and inspections handled when the job requires them.
Edging, mulch, cleanup, and a final walk-through. The yard leaves looking the way it does in the photos above, not in a year, today.
Most of our projects fall inside a roughly thirty-minute radius south of Pittsburgh. The communities below are where the bulk of the gallery above was built.
Q&A Landscaping was founded by Quinten and Anthony out of Jefferson Hills and South Park, those streets are where the company started, and we still take a steady share of work there every season.
Since then, the heaviest growth has come from Canonsburg and Upper St Clair. Both have become regular project zones, with builds that range from straightforward concrete walkways to multi-tier retaining wall systems and full landscape installations.
