Nothing. Nashville's Best Pros is free for homeowners and free for home service businesses. We do not charge for introductions, we do not take a commission on the work, and we do not sell your details on.

Each business states its own credentials, and profiles that claim to be licensed or insured show that as a badge. Those claims come from the business rather than from us, so ask to see the paperwork before work starts — any legitimate landscaper will expect the question.

Each business sets its own service area. This page shows landscaping businesses covering Gallatin and Sumner County, including Nashville, Franklin, Brentwood, Murfreesboro, Hendersonville and more.

Every business shown sets its own service area, so a listing appearing here means it covers Gallatin rather than merely being headquartered somewhere within driving distance.

Most often: yard has no plan to it; beds are overgrown or tired; water pools or runs at the house; a slope you cannot use. You do not need to know the name of the fix to ask — describe the symptom in your enquiry and the landscaper will tell you what it is.

Almost always grading that falls toward the house rather than away from it, compacted clay that will not absorb, or downspouts discharging at the foundation. Middle Tennessee clay soil drains slowly, so water that would soak away elsewhere sits here. The fix is usually regrading, extending downspouts well away from the house, and a French drain or dry well where the water has nowhere else to go.

Hardscape versus planting, access, and how much earth has to move. Plants are the cheap part. Retaining walls, patios and walkways are priced by material and square footage, and their cost is dominated by base preparation and drainage that nobody sees. Access matters more than people expect: a back yard reachable only through a narrow side gate means everything is moved by wheelbarrow.

Autumn is best for trees, shrubs and perennials — the soil is still warm, rainfall is more reliable, and roots establish over winter without the plant supporting foliage. Spring is the second-best window. Planting in July is the hardest on a new plant and needs the most watering to survive, which is why so much summer planting fails by August.

Regrading works where the slope is gentle enough to reshape and you have room to move the earth. A retaining wall is for holding a grade change that will not stay put on its own — typically anything over about three feet, or where you need usable flat ground. Walls above a certain height need engineering and drainage behind them; a wall built without drainage will lean or fail, which is the most common failure we get called to fix.

Slow the water down and hold the soil with roots. Deep-rooted ground cover, terracing, and directing runoff away from the slope face all work; sod alone on a steep grade usually does not. On Middle Tennessee clay the water sheets rather than soaks, so the priority is intercepting it above the slope rather than trying to armour the bottom.
