Services
We have a rich history in the Great Lakes Bay Region. We started in 1948, when Richard "Dick" Somalski returned home from Michigan State University, where he studied forestry. He started a small company called Bay Lawn Service, installing lawns and planting shrubs and trees for residential and commercial properties throughout the Great Lakes Bay Region.
The best landscapes are created from a blend of artistry, in-depth scientific knowledge, and decades of experience. That's the Bay Landscaping difference that continues to earn us recognition for outstanding landscape design both locally and throughout Michigan. Whether you're looking for a simple "facelift" to an existing landscape, a comprehensive design for a new build, or anything in-between, you can trust the professionals at Bay Landscaping to create a design that works for the way you live and provides the best growing environment for your plants.
Curb appeal enhances the value of your home - as well as your enjoyment of your property. Once your lawn and landscaping are established, protect your investment by using the professional services of our Horticultural Maintenance Division. We prefer to use the term "horticultural services" as opposed to "maintenance packages" because we apply treatments only when they are necessary.
When you don't have the time, equipment, or know-how to install a new landscape (or renovate an existing one), you can depend on the professionals at Bay Landscaping to get the job done. As a full-service landscape design-build company, we've got you covered from start to finish. Regular work progress communication via email, phone, or however you prefer to stay abreast of the work.

We enjoyed working with your whole team. Jack came up with fantastic plans, and was accepting of our requested changes. And the 2 installers were absolutely amazing. Such talented men and creative, we appreciate the way they rearranged and reused almost all of my existing plants. And such hard workers! There were two days they worked in pouring rain all day! Thank you for a job well done! Laura and Steve

We needed a piece of concrete that was buried in our front yard removed. We started digging and thought we could get it, but the job was bigger than we thought. After a few phone calls to other places that would not come out and one that quoted us a ridiculous amount, they came out almost immediately and removed it, filled it in and seeded it. Thank you so much for solving our problem.

We used to have TrueGreen for 10 years and we were very unhappy with their service. We have hired Bay Landscaping to take care of our lawn for the last year and a half and I wish I could send pictures because it is just beautiful. Anytime we had a question Bill would stop by and go over what we needed to do. He was extremely helpful. Thank you Bay Landscaping.

I paid over $10,000 for a landscaping job. This included a new walkway with stone blocks and decorative steps leading ito my front door. After 3 years all the blocks on my entrance have sunken in. They are uneven. My son in law stepped up and one block actually flipped off when he stepped on it. Luckily he didn't get hurt. If some one came to my door I could easily be sued over these uneven blocks.
I thought they would be securely placed with masonry to hold them. Bug no they are all loose. I called about it last year and they told me that ants were my problem. REALLY? I think they should come out and correct this issue! I assumed they would place a product down before the blocks in the walkway to prevent plant growth but apparently they didn't because there are weeds coming up between EVERY BRICK! ****.
After reading this review the company called and made arrangements to fix. As of today they have resolved the issues I was having and it looks great. Thank you for your great work ethic and for standing behind your work. It is really appreciated

Not very happy with our new yard. So many weeds! Even after treatment. The grass does not look like Kentucky Bluegrass that we were told was going to be put in. Plus, when they seeded the grass, overshot into the flower beds and now my husband is having to pull all that out. Not the quality yard I expected and was told I would receive by friends and the company. Very disappointed.
