Landscaping Services in Cary, NC
Cary's established neighborhoods feature some of the most impressive residential landscapes in the Triangle, but maintaining those mature plantings takes expertise and consistent care. Summit Exterior Services brings professional landscaping to western Cary homeowners who want their beds, shrubs, and outdoor spaces to reflect the quality of the community around them.
In premier neighborhoods like Preston, MacGregor Downs, and Lochmere, landscape beds often include a diverse mix of evergreen and deciduous plantings that require seasonal attention — spring mulching, summer deadheading, fall cutbacks, and winter pruning. We provide comprehensive bed maintenance programs tailored to your property's specific plant palette, so your landscape looks intentional and polished in every season.
Cary's older neighborhoods present unique landscaping challenges. Mature oaks and pines in Twin Lakes and Wellington create deep shade that limits what will grow, while surface roots from large trees make traditional bed installations difficult. We solve these problems with raised bed techniques, shade-adapted plant selections like aucuba, cast iron plant, and liriope, and careful mulching that nourishes without burying root flares.
Whether you need a straightforward mulch refresh for your Regency townhome or a full front-yard redesign for your Cary Park property, Summit approaches every project with a detailed plan. We evaluate sun exposure, existing irrigation, soil drainage, and your aesthetic preferences before recommending a single plant. The result is a landscape that thrives in its specific microclimate rather than struggling against it.

Landscaping FAQs for Cary Homeowners
How much does a bed maintenance program cost?
It depends on your plant palette and how much seasonal attention it needs, from spring mulching to fall cutbacks. We evaluate your specific beds during a free consultation and build a maintenance plan around what's actually there.
How often do you visit for ongoing bed maintenance?
It varies by season. Spring mulching, summer deadheading, fall cutbacks, and winter pruning are each their own visit, so a full maintenance program touches your property multiple times a year rather than just once.
Do you maintain landscapes in Preston and MacGregor Downs?
Yes, those are two of our premier Cary neighborhoods with mature, diverse plantings that need consistent seasonal care, along with Lochmere, Wellington, and Cary Park.
What do you plant under mature oaks where nothing else grows?
Deep shade from mature oaks and pines in neighborhoods like Twin Lakes and Wellington limits options and surface roots make traditional beds tricky. We use raised bed techniques and shade-adapted plants like aucuba, cast iron plant, and liriope that actually thrive there.
