Nova Scapes proudly provides landscaping services to homeowners throughout Northern Virginia, including Bristow, Gainesville, Haymarket, and Manassas. As a local, family-owned company, we understand the needs of properties in this area and tailor our services to match the region’s climate, seasons, and expectations.
Once you reach out, we'll schedule a property visit and consultation. We come to you, no pressure, just a conversation. We will walk your property, understand your needs, and answer any questions you may have. It’s a straightforward, no-pressure discussion to make sure we’re the right fit for your project.
After the visit, we send you a written proposal that breaks down the scope of work, timeline, and pricing. Everything is spelled out so you know exactly what you're getting. If you have questions or want to adjust anything, we talk it through until it's right. Once you're ready to move forward, we make it official.
We lock in a date and show up when we say we will. Once the proposal is approved, we get you on the schedule. We'll confirm the start date, let you know what to expect, and handle any prep work needed before we arrive. If weather or anything else shifts the timeline, we'll keep you updated ... no disappearing act, no wondering when we'll be there.
We do the job right, keep the area clean, and stay in touch. Our crew arrives on time and gets to work. We treat your property like it's our own with a clean worksite, attention to detail, and no cutting corners. If anything comes up during the job, we communicate with you right away. You won't be left guessing what's happening in your own yard.
We make sure you're happy before we leave. When the work is done, we walk the property with you to make sure everything looks the way it should. If something needs adjusting, we take care of it. For ongoing services like lawn care, we stay in regular contact so your property stays looking great season after season.
Both. We handle one-time projects like spring cleanups, hardscaping installations, or landscape design. We also offer seasonal and year-round maintenance plans for homeowners who want consistent care. Whether you need us once or all season, we're here.
We'll reschedule and let you know as soon as possible. Weather happens, and we'd rather move the date than rush through a job or leave your property muddy. We'll keep you updated and get back on schedule as quickly as we can.
Not unless you want to be. For most lawn care and maintenance, we can work while you're away. For bigger projects like hardscaping or design work, we'll do an initial walkthrough with you and then check in as needed. We'll let you know upfront if we need access to anything specific.
Yes. We're fully licensed and insured, so you can feel confident that your property is in good hands.
It depends on the season and the type of work. For routine maintenance, we can usually get you on the schedule within a week or two. Larger projects like patios or retaining walls may take a bit longer to plan and start. The best move? Reach out early, and we'll work with your timeline.
Our standard maintenance includes mowing, trimming, edging, and blowing off walkways and driveways. We also offer add-ons like mulching, aeration and seeding, seasonal cleanups, and fertilization. We'll customize a plan based on what your property actually needs.
For one-time projects, we typically collect a deposit to get started and the balance when the work is complete. For ongoing maintenance, we'll work out a payment schedule that makes sense—usually monthly or per visit. Everything is outlined in the proposal before any work begins.
Let us know. If something's not right, we'll come back and make it right. We don't leave a job until you're satisfied. We've built our reputation on doing things correctly the first time, but if we miss something, we'll take care of it—no runaround, no excuses.
Yes. If a storm leaves branches, debris, or damage on your property, give us a call. We'll work to get out there as quickly as possible to clean things up and get your yard back in shape.
Absolutely. We're familiar with HOA guidelines and neighborhood standards in our service area. If your community has specific requirements for landscaping or maintenance, we'll make sure the work meets those expectations.
It depends on what you're doing. Spring and fall are great for planting, seeding, and cleanups. Hardscaping like patios and retaining walls can be done most of the year, weather permitting. If you're planning something big, reach out a few months ahead so we can plan it right and get it on the schedule.
Yes. If you're not sure what you want or need help planning a project, we'll walk through ideas with you and create a design that fits your property and budget. We're not just installers—we help you figure out what works best for your space.
