Creating outdoor spaces that capture the character of Adel
Adel, Iowa, is a charming city full of small-town warmth, tree-lined neighborhoods, and that kind of community that still waves as neighbors walk by. Larkin Landscape & Design believes your outdoor space should reflect the same spirit: welcoming, comfortable, and built to last through every Iowa season.
We craft complete outdoor environments that bring comfort, connection, and functionality together. Whether you're envisioning a fire pit gathering spot, a shaded pergola retreat, or a stone pathway that winds through lush gardens, our team designs with Adel's climate, soil, and lifestyle in mind.
Our process is simple but powerful: we listen, design, and build with precision. When you are building something that is going to last decades, every detail counts - from the placement of a boulder to the direction of water drainage.
The Larkin Approach: Built on Experience and Local Insight
What separates us is not just craftsmanship but the deep understanding we have of the challenges presented by the Central Iowa landscape: freeze-thaw cycles, shifting soils, and temperature extremes all require more than generic solutions. That is why we use time-tested techniques with enduring materials to make every patio, retaining wall, and planting bed stand the test of time.
We always begin each project with an on-site consultation to understand:
- How you utilize your outdoor space - entertaining, relaxing, gardening, etc.
- Your property's slope, drainage, and sunlight patterns
- The style and layout that best complements your home's architecture
Then we take your vision and create a custom 2D plan; that is, a realistic preview of how every feature will work together. It's your dream yard, mapped out before the first shovel hits the ground.
