Landscape and More: Everything You Need to Know
Blog

This customer in Glenmary called us to clean up their landscape beds and replace their outdated landscape lighting system. After a 1-1 on-site consultation, Kyle created a custom landscape and lighting design for their home. We use CAST lighting fixtures which are solid sand-cast bronze which is the most corrosion-resistant metal used to make landscape lighting fixtures. They add elegance to any space on top of providing light to highlight walkways, steps, and landscaping features of your property.

With holiday lighting from WLS, you’re getting all of the magic with none of the hassle. There’s no untangling the lights, worrying about broken bulbs, messing with the ladder, or getting on the roof. Once you decide what you want your theme to be - from traditional white lights to the “Grinch” - red, white, green, “Candy Cane” - red and white, “Frozen” - blue and white, or traditional multi-color bulbs, we take care of the rest.

Fall is a great time of year to plant trees and shrubs in the Louisville area. The major heat of summer is gone, but the soil temperatures are still warm. This gives two benefits to your newly planted tree or shrub - cooler weather is easier on new plant installation while the warm soil still encourages strong root growth.

At WLS, we believe every home deserves to shine and the landscape is an integral part of showcasing your home's natural beauty. Recently, we worked on a property for our long-time customer in Highview, KY where the front shrubs and trees had become overgrown and were hiding the home’s features. The challenge for this particular property included overgrown shrubs blocking walkways and windows, extra foliage crowding the foundation beds, and a general need for reshaping and refreshing the landscape.

Our customer in the Highview area called to get the shrubs around their home trimmed. We trimmed and shaped the hedges in the front of the house below the window sill which maximized the amount of natural sunlight being let into the home. This is especially important during the cooler weather to allow maximum airflow when the windows are open and naturally provide heat to the home's interior.

Your air conditioning unit works hard to keep your home cool and comfortable through Kentucky’s hot summers. The truth is, many homeowners don’t realize that soil erosion, water runoff, and shifting ground can put their outdoor unit at risk. Over time, these issues can cause debris buildup, water damage, or even impact how efficiently your system runs. The good news? A simple landscaping solution can make all the difference: a retaining wall.

There are thousands of individual blades of grass in one square foot of your lawn and there can be up to hundreds of thousands (or more) in your lawn! Fall is a very important time of year in the Louisville area to give your lawn the support it needs to thrive through the winter and flourish in the spring. Here are our top 3 recommendations for taking care of your lawn from fall through winter:
