What We Do Around Knoxville
We're a full-service landscaping and hardscape crew. Here's how we can help, whether you're starting from scratch or just need a refresh.
Design & Build
Landscape Design
Every great yard starts with a plan. We sit down with you, walk the property, and figure out what'll actually work for your space, not just what looks good on paper. Then we map out the whole thing before we ever touch a shovel.
Hardscape Installation
Stone, brick, pavers. The permanent stuff that gives your yard structure. We handle it all, from the base prep to the final joint sand, and we do it right the first time so it's still level in ten years.
Patios & Walkways
This is where most of our projects start. A well-built patio or walkway changes how you use your yard. We'll help you pick the right material and lay it out so it flows naturally with your home.
Retaining Walls
If you've got a slope, you need a wall that'll hold up, literally. We build walls that handle water pressure, stop erosion, and look good doing it. No shortcuts on the base or drainage behind it.
Yard Renovations
Sometimes a yard just needs a full reset. We'll tear out what's not working, regrade, lay new sod, and rebuild the beds from scratch. It's a bigger job, but the before-and-after is always worth it.
Seasonal & Maintenance
Mulch & Plant Installation
Fresh mulch and the right plants can completely change your curb appeal in a single day. We source quality material locally and install it clean. No scattered mulch in your lawn, no half-planted shrubs.
Drainage Solutions
Water pooling where it shouldn't? That's not just annoying. It kills your grass and threatens your foundation. We'll diagnose where the water's coming from and fix it with grading, French drains, or whatever the situation calls for.
Spring Cleanup
Winter leaves a mess. We clear out the dead growth, re-edge your beds, prune back what needs it, and lay fresh mulch so your yard looks sharp heading into the growing season. One visit and you're ready to go.

"Nick and Jake did a fantastic job breathing new life into our landscaping! We had recently moved into our home and the yard needed some serious help. We had a lot of overgrowth, crowding, and poorly suited plants, and Grateful Grounds knew exactly what we needed. They were extremely knowledgeable, gave us great suggestions, their proposal was detailed and professional, and their quality of work and attention to detail was second to none. And now our yard looks like a million bucks! I'd give 6 stars if I could!"

"Jacob and Nick were wonderful to work with. They are very knowledgeable and worked with my budget to get me the results I wanted. They provided me a thorough landscape design beforehand so I could get an idea of what the end result would look like. They communicate well and were able to get the job done in a timely manner. Highly recommend!"

"Nick and Jacob did an amazing job on my landscaping project. They built a beautiful retaining wall and fire pit, and recently came back for a full spring cleanup and refresh that turned out even better than I expected."

"What can I say except quality service, local, fair priced, and kind & professional work. I wanted low maintenance with specific items. Nick and Jacob were patient and worked with me to come up with a plan that they executed better than I thought. Their knowledge helped me understand the importance and low maintenance capability of native planting. Not only that, but they answered questions long after they finished the work. If you need landscaping and want people who care about the plants and their service, Grateful Grounds is the best in the area."
