New Planting Beds
Bed layout, soil prep, edging, planting and a finished layer of mulch. Beds are shaped around the house and the way you use the yard, and sized so they stay manageable once they fill in.

KBK Landscaping Inc.
Landscape installation is the part of a project you live with for years: the beds, the trees and shrubs, the mulch and stone, and the grading underneath that decides where water goes. KBK Landscaping Inc. has installed landscapes for homeowners, businesses and municipalities in Saline and across Washtenaw County since 1998.
Kris Krause started the company that year. Today about 25 staff and our own equipment fleet handle installation from site prep through final cleanup.

What We Do
Bed layout, soil prep, edging, planting and a finished layer of mulch. Beds are shaped around the house and the way you use the yard, and sized so they stay manageable once they fill in.
From a single tree to a full privacy screen or foundation planting. Each plant goes in at the right depth, in soil that has been loosened and amended, with room left for how big it will get.
Bulk mulch, topsoil, garden soil and decorative stone, installed by our crew or delivered for your own project. A fresh, even layer is the quickest way to make established beds look finished again.
Land leveling and prep before anything is planted or seeded. Getting the grade right first is what keeps water away from the house and keeps new plantings from sitting in wet ground.
Drain tile, regrading and redirected runoff for yards with standing water, soggy low spots or water heading toward the foundation. We fix the cause rather than planting over the problem.
Bare, graded lots turned into a finished yard: topsoil, lawn, foundation beds, trees and walkways, as one project or in phases for homes and commercial buildings alike.
Overgrown shrubs and tired beds removed, the soil reworked and new plantings installed. A good option when a yard has outgrown its original landscaping.
Sod, hydroseed or straw seed, put down once the grade and soil are ready. Sod gives you a finished lawn the same day; seeding costs less on larger areas.
Hardscape built alongside the planting, so the patio, walkway or wall and the beds around it are planned and installed together on a properly prepared base.
Most failed plantings trace back to installation: compacted soil, wrong depth, the wrong plant for the sun. Getting those right at the start is what gets a new landscape through its first Michigan summer and winter.
Grading and drainage come before planting. A yard that sheds water away from the house protects the foundation, the patio and the new beds all at once.
Defined edges, the right mulch depth and plants spaced for their mature size mean less weeding and less trimming in the years after the job is done.
Our own crews and equipment do the whole installation. No subcontractors and no handoff between the people who grade the yard and the people who plant it.
A landscape installed correctly does not need constant correction. Most long-term repair costs come from shortcuts taken during the original install, and we do not take them.
Who We Work With
KBK Landscaping Inc. is based in Saline and has worked across Southeast Michigan since 1998. Homeowners hire us for new beds, plantings and yard renovations; businesses, developers and municipalities hire us for new construction landscaping and site work.
Installation often starts with a plan from our landscape designers, and it can include patios and retaining walls built by the same crews. We do not offer residential lawn care contracts or residential snow removal; our mowing and snow programs are for commercial properties.
How It Works
Every estimate is free. Call 888-408-0320 or email kris@kbklandscaping.com and we will look at the property, scope the work and put it in writing with no obligation. KBK Landscaping Inc. works out of 9685 West Michigan Avenue, Saline, Michigan 48176, United States.
We set the grade, fix drainage and prepare the soil before anything goes in. Our crews know how local clay soil behaves, from planting beds to new lawn establishment.
Trees, shrubs and perennials go in, beds are edged and mulched, and any stone or walkways are finished so the whole yard reads as one project.
We clean up when the job is done, and all work is fully guaranteed. The same crew is easy to reach if anything needs attention after the install.
Tell us what you want planted, graded or rebuilt. We serve Saline and communities across Washtenaw County and Southeast Michigan, and every installation estimate is free.
