MW Lawn & Landscape designs and installs complete outdoor spaces for homes and businesses across Olathe, Overland Park, Lenexa, and Johnson County planting design, patios and walkways, retaining walls, landscape lighting, and more. As the local lawn company thousands of neighbors already trust, we take your yard from first plan to finished installation with one team, and we’re here to maintain it afterward. Family-owned for 25+ years.
A great landscape doesn’t happen by accident, and it doesn’t happen by juggling a designer, a separate installer, and a maintenance company who all blame each other when something goes wrong. We handle the whole thing under one roof. It starts with a free on-site consultation where we walk your property, listen to how you want to use the space, and talk honestly about budget. From there we build a custom design the layout of beds, plantings, hardscape, and lighting so you can see the plan before any work begins. Then our own crew installs it. And because we’re the local lawn company many of your neighbors already use, we’re still here afterward to keep it looking its best.
We design and install for both homes and businesses across Johnson County, and we do the full range: planting design with trees, shrubs, and perennials chosen to thrive in Kansas; hardscaping like patios, walkways, and retaining walls; landscape lighting; bed design and edging; and the drainage and grading that quietly make everything else work. Whether you’re starting from a blank yard on a new build, refreshing a tired, overgrown landscape, or putting a polished face on a commercial property, we’ll design something that fits your space, your goals, and your budget and then build it right.

No coordinating a designer, a builder, and a maintenance crew. We plan it, install it, and can maintain it one company accountable for the whole result.

We design your space before the first shovel, so you know what you’re getting layout, plantings, and hardscape instead of hoping it turns out.

Patios, walkways, and retaining walls plus the trees, shrubs, and beds around them the structure and the softscape, designed to work together.

We choose plants and materials that actually thrive in Johnson County, so your landscape looks good for years not just on installation day.
Everything it takes to go from an idea to a finished, thriving landscape handled by one team.

A plan tailored to your property, your style, and your budget so you can see the layout of beds, plants, and features before we build.

Trees, shrubs, perennials, and ornamental grasses chosen to thrive in the Kansas climate and arranged for year-round interest.

Patios, walkways, and retaining and sitting walls that give your landscape structure, usable space, and lasting value.

Low-voltage lighting that extends your evenings outdoors, highlights the best of your landscape, and adds safety and curb appeal.

Clean, defined beds with crisp edging and proper mulch the detail that makes a whole landscape look finished and cared for.

The behind-the-scenes work that protects everything else moving water away from your home and keeping beds and hardscape sound.

Still Have Questions? Call our team or request a free consultation we’re happy to talk through your project.
It’s a design-build process, which means one company handles the whole thing from idea to finished yard. We start with a free on-site consultation we walk your property, talk about how you want to use the space, and get a sense of your budget. Then we create a custom design so you can see the layout of beds, plantings, and hardscape before any work starts. Once you approve it, our own crew installs everything. And because we’re a full-service local lawn company, we can maintain it afterward too. You deal with one team the whole way through, not three.
It depends entirely on the project, because ‘landscape installation’ covers everything from refreshing a few beds to redesigning an entire property with patios and retaining walls. The biggest cost drivers are the size of the area, whether the project is planting-focused or includes hardscape (patios and walls cost more than beds), the materials you choose, and how much site prep, drainage, or grading is needed. Rather than guess, we give you a clear, itemized estimate after the consultation so you know exactly what you’re paying for and we’ll work with you to design something that fits your budget.
It means the same company designs your landscape and builds it, rather than you hiring a designer to draw a plan and then finding a separate contractor to install it. The advantage is accountability and coordination: the people installing your landscape are working from a plan they helped create, nothing gets lost in translation between two companies, and there’s one point of contact responsible for the finished result. It also tends to keep the project realistic because we design knowing what it costs to build, you don’t end up with a beautiful plan you can’t afford to install.
Yes, both. On the residential side we design and install everything from single beds to full property makeovers for homeowners across Johnson County. On the commercial side we work with businesses, offices, retail centers, and HOAs that need professional, dependable landscaping for entrances, common areas, and grounds plus the seasonal color and ongoing maintenance that keep a commercial property looking managed. If you’re a property manager or HOA board, we’re glad to put together a detailed proposal you can compare with confidence.
It ranges from a single day to a couple of weeks, depending on the scope. Refreshing beds with new plantings and mulch might be a one- or two-day job, while a full design with hardscape, drainage work, and extensive planting is a larger project measured in weeks. Weather and material availability play a role too. We’ll give you a realistic timeline as part of your estimate, so you know what to expect before we start and we work to stay on that schedule.
That’s exactly why local experience matters. Johnson County has hot, humid summers, cold winters, heavy clay soil, and periodic drought, and plenty of good-looking plants simply don’t hold up to all of that. We choose trees, shrubs, and perennials that are proven to thrive in our specific conditions, and we place them where they’ll actually do well sun-lovers in the sun, shade plants in the shade, the right plant for the drainage. Choosing plants that belong here is the difference between a landscape that looks great for years and one that needs replacing in two.

The work the lawnmaintenance workers did for us was exceptional. I have many shrubs and bushes and they trimmed everything beautifully. And just as important, they cleaned up all the trimmings _ and there was a lot _ as well as some other yard waste. We so appreciate such good work. Thank you.![]()
