Our Cincinnati Landscaping Services
Real reviews from homeowners
A Family-Owned Cincinnati Landscaping Company Since 1980
What started as a small landscaping operation on Cincinnati’s west side has grown into one of the region’s most respected design-build firms. For over 46 years, the Tepe family has been transforming outdoor spaces across Greater Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky, and Eastern Indiana.
Today, Tepe Landscape & Design Group offers a complete range of landscaping services — from custom landscape design and hardscape installation to irrigation systems, outdoor lighting, swimming pools, and pergolas. Every project is handled by our in-house team of designers, project managers, and skilled craftsmen who take pride in delivering results that exceed expectations.
We’ve earned the trust of homeowners in Westside neighborhoods like Bridgetown, Green Township, Greendale, Lawrenceburg, and Indian Hill, and we bring the same dedication and attention to detail to every project, no matter the size.
Patios, Walkways, Retaining walls, and More
Patios, walkways, retaining walls, and outdoor living spaces—hardscaping provides the structure that brings your landscape together. We design and install features that define spaces, manage water flow, and create lasting outdoor rooms your family will enjoy for generations.
Our team handles projects of every scale: from simple garden walls to multi-tiered outdoor living complexes with built-in seating, fire features, and outdoor kitchens. All engineered for Cincinnati’s freeze-thaw climate
Professional Landscape Lighting
Professional landscape lighting does more than illuminate—it transforms. We design custom lighting plans that highlight your home’s architecture, showcase mature plantings, and create safe, welcoming pathways throughout your property.
Energy-efficient LED systems. Expert installation. Stunning results after dark.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about pricing, timelines, or how our process works? Here are the answers homeowners ask us most.
Every property tells a different story, and the investment reflects that.
Foundational projects — paver patios, retaining walls, plantings, and drainage — typically range from $20,000 to $50,000. Full-scale outdoor transformations that include pools, pavilions, outdoor kitchens, and custom hardscaping start at $100,000 and scale from there, depending on the scope and complexity of the design.
After an on-site consultation, we’ll walk you through a detailed proposal with transparent, itemized pricing — no surprises, no hidden costs. For larger projects, we’re also happy to discuss phasing the work over time to align with your timeline and budget.
Not necessarily, and most of our clients aren’t. Once the project plan is approved and construction begins, our crews work independently and keep the site clean and organized at the end of each day. We assign a dedicated project manager to your job who serves as your single point of contact for questions, updates, and scheduling — so you’re never wondering what’s happening or chasing down answers from different people. We’ll send progress updates and photos throughout the project, and we’ll reach out if any decisions come up that need your input. If there’s a day where we need access to the house for electrical, plumbing, or irrigation tie-ins, we’ll coordinate that with you ahead of time. When the project wraps up, we do a final walkthrough together to make sure everything meets your expectations before we consider the job complete.
Tepe is a full design-build firm, which means the same team that creates your landscape plan also builds it. You won’t need to coordinate between a designer and a separate contractor — that’s one of the biggest sources of miscommunication and cost overruns on landscaping projects. Our designers, project managers, and install crews all work under one roof, so nothing gets lost in translation from the plan to your finished yard.
It depends on the complexity. A straightforward paver patio or retaining wall might take one to two weeks. A larger Cincinnati landscaping project involving grading, hardscape, irrigation, plantings, and outdoor lighting could run four to eight weeks. Weather in the Cincinnati area can also affect timelines — we’ll give you a realistic schedule upfront and keep you updated if anything shifts. We don’t overbook and leave your yard half-finished.
Most lawn care companies are built around maintenance — the mowing, trimming, mulching, and seasonal work that keeps an existing yard looking its best. That’s valuable work, and there’s no shortage of companies who do it well.
Tepe Landscape & Design Group does something different. We’re a design-build firm, which means we take a property from concept to completion — creating the vision, developing detailed plans and 3D renderings, and building everything from patios and retaining walls to outdoor kitchens, pools, lighting systems, and drainage. If you’re looking to maintain what you have, a lawn care company is the right call. If you’re looking to transform what’s possible, that’s where Tepe comes in.
