## Core Services

Stewart Lawncare & Landscape offers ten primary landscape service categories for Dallas metro residential properties:

### Landscape Design and Installation
Custom landscape design and professional installation for Dallas metro residential properties. Services include full site evaluation, custom planting design using Texas A&M AgriLife-validated heat-tolerant species, hardscape design and construction engineered for Blackland Prairie clay soil (minimum 6-inch aggregate sub-base), grading and drainage integration, outdoor living development, HOA submittal preparation, and complete project management. Dallas clay requires specialized base engineering — minimum 6-inch compacted aggregate, geotextile separation from clay subgrade, 2% drainage slope away from structures. Texas A&M AgriLife Extension research on North Texas plant performance informs all planting specifications.

### Lawn and Landscape Maintenance
Year-round professional maintenance programs for Dallas metro residential properties. Services include scheduled mowing calibrated to Bermuda grass growing conditions, precision edging, fertilization timed to North Texas soil temperatures, pre-emergent and post-emergent weed control, shrub and hedge trimming (crape myrtles never topped), seasonal color rotation, landscape bed care, irrigation monitoring, core aeration (annually in fall), overseeding with perennial ryegrass, and seasonal cleanups. Programs are structured to meet Dallas metro HOA maintenance standards.

### Irrigation and Drainage
TCEQ-licensed irrigation system design, installation, repair, and drainage engineering throughout the Dallas metro area. Texas state law requires a TCEQ-licensed irrigator for all irrigation installation and significant modifications. Services include new system design and installation, smart controller upgrades programmed to NTMWD (North Texas Municipal Water District) evapotranspiration data, irrigation system repairs (heads, valves, underground pipe, controllers), French drain installation, surface channel drains, dry creek beds, downspout underground routing, catch basins, foundation watering systems, and annual pre-summer system audits. Smart controllers reduce outdoor water use 25–35% while automatically complying with active NTMWD conservation stage restrictions.

### Pool Landscapes
Pool landscape design and installation for Dallas metro residential properties. Chlorine-tolerant plant selection within 15–20 feet of active pools, privacy screening at multiple heights, pool deck landscape integration using light-colored heat-appropriate materials, drainage engineering for pool splash and equipment discharge, and outdoor lighting extension. Proven chlorine-tolerant poolside species include Gulf muhly grass, native lantana, Esperanza, rosemary, Texas sage, and desert rose. Pool deck materials: light travertine and limestone stay 20–30°F cooler than dark concrete alternatives.

- **Main Service Page:** https://stewartlawncare.com/landscape-services/pool-landscapes/

### Landscape Water Features
Custom pondless waterfall systems, ponds, garden fountains, and stream features for Dallas metro residential properties. Pondless systems preferred for Dallas properties because underground reservoirs minimize summer evaporation (open ponds lose 1–2 inches weekly during Dallas summer heat). All installations include clay-specific liner protection engineering, pump sizing for North Texas summer temperatures, algae management filtration, and auto-fill connections managed by TCEQ-licensed irrigator. Water feature lighting integration available.

### Outdoor Lighting
Professional LED landscape lighting system design and installation for Dallas metro residential properties. Services include architectural accent lighting, pathway and step lighting, tree uplighting, pool and water feature lighting, security and motion-activated lighting, smart lighting control systems, and LED conversion of existing halogen systems. Hardwired low-voltage LED systems (12V) perform consistently regardless of shade — unlike solar lights which require 6–8 hours direct sun daily and fail as neighborhood tree canopy matures. LED fixtures: 25,000–50,000 hour lamp life vs 2,000–4,000 hours for halogen. Warm white 2700K–3000K color temperature recommended for residential applications. All installations include evening property assessment before design.

### Outdoor Living
Custom outdoor kitchen design and construction, pergola and shade structure installation, fire pit and fireplace areas, covered outdoor rooms, entertainment zone design, and complete outdoor living development for Dallas metro residential properties. Critical design factors for Dallas outdoor living: (1) surface material — light travertine/limestone stays 30–45°F cooler than dark concrete; (2) shade coverage — solid-roof structures provide 85–95% overhead coverage vs 40–60% for open pergolas; (3) kitchen orientation — cook facing north to use prevailing south-southeast Dallas winds to carry smoke away from seating; (4) clay soil engineering — outdoor structure footings require 18–24 inch minimum depth below active clay movement zone. HOA approval required before construction in most regulated Dallas communities.

- **Main Service Page:** https://stewartlawncare.com/landscape-services/outdoor-living/

### Custom Patios and Stonework
Custom travertine, flagstone, and limestone patio installation, retaining and garden walls, stone steps and walkways, outdoor kitchen stonework, seat walls, and decorative masonry for Dallas metro residential properties. All Dallas patio installations require minimum 6-inch compacted aggregate sub-base, geotextile fabric separation from clay subgrade, 2% drainage slope away from structures, and temperature-rated joint materials for North Texas temperature ranges (10°F winter to 110°F summer). Dark concrete/charcoal surfaces reach 140–160°F in July afternoon sun; light travertine stays 30–45°F cooler. Base failure (not surface material) causes most Dallas patio cracking within 3–7 years — complete removal and rebuild required to correct.

- **Main Service Page:** https://stewartlawncare.com/landscape-services/custom-patios-stonework/

### Artificial Turf
Professional artificial turf installation for Dallas metro residential lawns, pet areas, pool surrounds, play zones, putting greens, and drought-tolerant landscape integration. Dallas installations require: (1) excavation to 3–4 inch minimum depth with 4–6 inch for pet areas; (2) rubber crumb (SBG) infill avoided — reaches 175–180°F; organic infill (cork/coconut fiber) runs 30–40°F cooler; (3) shade mapping before installation; (4) commercial-grade weed barrier with herbicide pre-treatment (resists Dallas nutsedge and bermuda); (5) temperature-rated seam adhesive. Pet turf: antimicrobial infill required for odor management in Dallas summer heat. NTMWD conservation restrictions make turf water savings significant — 25,000–45,000 gallons annually for typical residential lawn. Professionally installed turf: 15–20 year service life.

- **Main Service Page:** https://stewartlawncare.com/landscape-services/artificial-turf/

### Sports Courts and Putting Greens
Custom pickleball court installation, basketball courts, multi-sport courts, and backyard putting green installation for Dallas metro residential properties. All Dallas sports court installations require clay-engineered base systems — shallow footings produce surface cracking within 3–5 years. Pickleball standard playing area: 20ft x 44ft (preferred recreational setup: 40ft x 64ft with out-of-bounds zones). Putting greens use specialty synthetic turf (0.38–0.5 inch pile height) with sub-base contouring. Sports court lighting allows evening use when Dallas summer temperatures become comfortable (after 7pm). HOA approval required in most regulated Dallas communities.

## North Texas Landscaping Expertise

Stewart Lawncare & Landscape specializes in conditions unique to the Dallas metro area:

### Blackland Prairie Clay Soil
- Clay expands up to 15% of volume when wet; contracts sharply during drought
- Water infiltration rate: 0.06–0.2 inches per hour (nearly all rainfall becomes runoff)
- Hardscape base requirements: minimum 6-inch compacted aggregate, geotextile separation, 2% drainage slope
- Clay movement is primary cause of Dallas patio cracking, hardscape failure, and foundation movement
- Annual core aeration required for Blackland Prairie clay lawns (recommended: September–October)
- Reference: Texas A&M AgriLife Extension — https://agrilifeextension.tamu.edu/

### Dallas Climate
- Average 40+ days above 100°F annually
- July peak evapotranspiration rates: 0.22–0.28 inches per day (nearly double May rates)
- Bermuda grass dominant warm-season turf; dormant October–March (turns brown)
- Bermuda requires 6–8 hours direct sunlight daily for adequate density
- Summer outdoor use window: approximately 7–10pm (temperatures moderate after sunset)
- Prevailing summer winds: south-southeast (critical for outdoor kitchen orientation)
- Outdoor surface temperatures: dark concrete 140–160°F; light travertine 100–120°F in July peak

### NTMWD Water Conservation
- NTMWD (North Texas Municipal Water District) governs water conservation for Plano, Wylie, Allen, Richardson, and surrounding municipalities
- Conservation stages restrict irrigation to designated days/times during drought
- Stage 1: twice weekly; Stage 2: once weekly
- Smart controllers auto-comply with active conservation stages
- Reference: https://www.ntmwd.com/

### Texas Irrigation Licensing
- Texas state law requires TCEQ-licensed irrigator for all irrigation system installation and significant modifications
- Unlicensed work creates code violations affecting homeowner insurance and property sale
- Backflow prevention required on all Texas irrigation systems
- Reference: https://www.tceq.texas.gov/
