Friendswood landscaping
Built for Friendswood yards, soil, and weather.
Friendswood straddles Galveston and Harris counties, and the Clear Creek floodplain cuts through established neighborhoods that flooded repeatedly before Army Corps improvements. FEMA maps here are unusually complex, and even elevated lots carry deed restrictions on fill and impervious cover. We work within those constraints to design yards that satisfy the floodplain rules, drain correctly after a storm, and still deliver the outdoor living spaces our clients want.
Drainage engineered for clay and rain
Most Friendswood yards sit on heavy clay that holds water. Grading and drains are designed in from the start, so the yard is usable right after a storm.
Planting suited to the Gulf Coast
Plants chosen for Houston-area heat, humidity and wet winters, placed where they will actually thrive.
Owner oversight on every Friendswood project
Chris Helms oversees every project, so your yard is finished with the quality and craftsmanship Helms is known for.
Award-winning synthetic turf
Every lawn and green comes from the team behind the Synthetic Turf Council's 2023 Residential Project of the Year.
