We design, build, and maintain outdoor environments —
one property at a time.
We've been working in DC, Maryland, and Virginia long enough to know what this region demands — clay that holds water after every storm, freeze-thaw cycles that crack anything installed on a bad base, and summers that expose drainage problems you didn't know you had. Actaeon handles design, installation, and the maintenance after that. One crew, start to close.

DMV knowledge.
DMV Experience.
Our region runs a wide range of conditions — clay that won't infiltrate to sandy soils that drain freely, gentle grades with no positive drainage to steep slopes, wet springs and dry summers that stress shallow-rooted plants. Actaeon is well versed in reading these site conditions and recommending solutions that hold, and we keep building on that knowledge with every project. We've worked in these conditions long enough to know what lasts and what doesn't — and to stop guessing about what a site needs.
Multidisciplinary Skills.
Cohesive team.
Landscape, drainage, and hardscape, handled as one coherent project. Design, install, maintain — executed by one trusted team.
Site-specific design.
Tailored install.
Every property has its own characteristics. Actaeon works with both the landscape and the client's needs to meet specific goals and make the most of the opportunities a site already offers.
