Landscape
Design & Installation
For more than thirty years, Covington's
has been creating landscapes in north Texas—everything
from planting a single tree to designing
and installing all aspects of extraordinary
outdoor environments. We are a fully licensed
and insured company, offering residential
and commercial landscaping design and installation
services supplemented by one of the Dallas
area's largest retail nurseries. With over
17 acres of fine quality plant material to
choose from, it's no wonder we are one of
DFWs best-kept secrets.
A landscape company can offer the best plants
and the best designers, but if they use inexperienced
crews, what good does it do? Fortunately,
we are blessed to have three of the finest
crews in Texas to handle your landscape installation.
Our installation crews are very thorough,
and the detailed clean-up that we do has
left many of our customers amazed. For honesty,
integrity, and dependability, look to Covington's.

Division, please contact
