ABOUT SUNSET LANDSCAPING LLC
Richfield's Premier Locally Owned Landscape Renovation Team
When Sunset Landscaping LLC was founded in 2006, our goal was simple: to be the landscape company that Richfield homeowners could trust completely. Not a company that sends a rotating cast of subcontractors and disappears after the final invoice. Not a national brand that treats every yard like a production line. A real, local business — one where the owner answers the phone, shows up on the job, and cares deeply about the finished result because it's in his own community.
Nearly two decades later, that commitment has never wavered. We have completed hundreds of landscape renovation projects across Richfield, Bloomington, Edina, and the surrounding south metro — from complete yard redesigns and seasonal cleanups to new planting beds, decorative stone, paver patios, garden walls, and outdoor living features that bring families outside and keep them there.
We believe that a beautifully designed landscape does more than improve your home's curb appeal and value — it improves your quality of life. There is something genuinely restorative about stepping into an outdoor space that is beautiful, intentional, and yours. That is what we set out to create for every client in Richfield, and it is what drives every decision our team makes from the first design consultation to the final planted perennial. .
Why Richfield homeowners choose Sunset Landscaping LLC:
- Locally owned and operated — a real Richfield business, not a franchise or national chain
- Free on-site design consultations with a detailed written proposal at no charge
- Deep knowledge of Richfield's soil conditions, drainage patterns, and HOA requirements
- Insured to cover general liability
- Workmanship warranty on all installations — we stand fully behind our work

OUR FOUNDATION
Locally Owned. Creatively Driven. Built on Quality and Value.
At Sunset Landscaping LLC, we believe every Richfield yard deserves a thoughtful, creative approach — not a cookie-cutter design pulled from a catalog. Our team brings genuine design talent and deep horticultural knowledge to every project, and we combine that creativity with the kind of honest, straightforward business practices that only a locally owned company can offer.
We are not the cheapest option in the market, and we are not trying to be. What we are is the best value — because a landscape renovation done right, with quality plants, proper drainage, and skilled installation, will look better, last longer, and require far less maintenance than one done at the lowest possible price. That is the Sunset standard, and it is what our neighbors in Richfield have come to expect from us since 2006.

Every yard has hidden potential — and we specialize in unlocking it. Our design process starts with your goals, your lifestyle, and the existing character of your property. We then bring a creative vision that transforms what you have into something you've always wanted.

WHAT WE DO
Complete Landscape Renovation Services
Sunset Landscaping LLC offers a full range of landscape renovation and redesign services for Richfield homeowners. Whether your project is a complete yard transformation, a targeted enhancement to an existing landscape, or a new outdoor living space built from the ground up, our team has the design experience, horticultural knowledge, and installation skill to bring your vision to life.
Every renovation begins with a thorough site assessment and a personal design consultation. We learn how you use your outdoor space, what you love about it, what frustrates you, and what you dream it could become. From that conversation, we build a landscape plan that is uniquely yours — one that reflects your taste, complements your home's architecture, and is designed to thrive in Richfield's climate for years to come.
Our flagship service is the complete landscape transformation — a top-to-bottom reimagining of your outdoor space. We evaluate your existing landscape, identify what to preserve, what to remove, and what to add, and we develop a cohesive design that ties the entire property together. The result is a yard that looks intentional, beautiful, and completely refreshed.
- Full property assessment and existing plant inventory
- Custom landscape design plan with planting layout
- Removal of overgrown, diseased, or unwanted vegetation
- Soil amendment and bed preparation for new plantings
- Installation of trees, shrubs, perennials, and groundcovers
- Decorative mulch, rock, and edging installation
- Final cleanup and homeowner walkthrough
Full Yard Redesign & Renovation
A well-designed planting bed is the heart of a great landscape. We design and install planting beds that provide year-round color, texture, and seasonal interest — selecting plants that are right for your specific light conditions, soil type, and maintenance preferences. We use a mix of natives, proven performers, and distinctive ornamentals to create beds that look intentional and grow more beautiful every year.
- Custom planting plans for sun, part-shade, and full-shade areas
- Native plant selections that support pollinators and local ecosystems
- Perennial, annual, and shrub combinations for multi-season interest
- Proper spacing and soil preparation for long-term plant health
- Mulch and edging installation for a clean, finished look
Planting Bed Design & Installation
The most inviting outdoor spaces combine beautiful plantings with functional, well-built hardscape elements. Sunset Landscaping LLC designs and installs decorative stone borders, garden walls, paver pathways, patio extensions, and fire pit surrounds that complement your landscape and give your yard structure, usability, and lasting appeal.
- Decorative stone and paver pathways and borders
- Garden walls and raised planting bed construction
- Patio extensions in concrete paver or natural stone
- Fire pit surrounds and outdoor seating areas
- Landscape lighting design and installation
Hardscape & Outdoor Living Features
Not every project requires a full renovation. Sometimes a targeted refresh — removing overgrown shrubs, adding new perennials, refreshing mulch, and cleaning up bed edges — is all it takes to dramatically improve your yard's appearance. Sunset Landscaping LLC offers seasonal refresh packages that bring new life to tired landscapes without the investment of a full redesign.
- Overgrown shrub and tree removal or reshaping
- New perennial and shrub plantings in existing beds
- Fresh mulch and decorative stone application
- Bed edging and landscape border installation
Landscape Refresh & Seasonal Enhancement
HOW WE WORK
Our Four-Step Renovation Process
A great landscape renovation doesn't happen by accident — it happens through a disciplined process that puts your goals first and never cuts corners on design, plant selection, or installation quality. At Sunset Landscaping LLC, every project follows the same four-step process that we have refined over 18 years of landscape renovation work in Richfield and the surrounding communities.
We believe an informed client makes for a better project. We are happy to walk you through every detail of our process during your free consultation, and we will never begin work until you have reviewed and approved every element of the plan.
Step I
Free On-Site Design Consultation
Every project begins with a personal visit to your property. We walk your entire yard with you, take measurements, evaluate soil and drainage conditions, note sun exposure and existing plant material, and — most importantly — listen to your goals. What do you love about your yard? What drives you crazy? What does your ideal outdoor space look like? That conversation shapes everything that follows.
- Full property walk and measurement
- Soil, drainage, and sun exposure assessment
- Discussion of design goals, style preferences, and budget
- Review of existing plantings — what to keep, refresh, or remove
Step II
Custom Design Plan & Proposal
Within one week of your consultation, we deliver a written landscape design plan and a detailed, itemized proposal. Your plan includes a planting layout, material selections, and a phasing recommendation if your project will be completed in stages. The proposal breaks down every line item so you know exactly what you are getting and what it costs — no vague estimates, no lump sums.
- Written landscape design plan with planting layout
- Itemized proposal — every plant, material, and service listed
- Firm pricing — no hidden fees or change-order surprises
- Phasing options available for larger renovation projects
Step III
Site Preparation
Before any new plant goes in the ground, we prepare the site properly. This means removing unwanted vegetation, amending soil where needed, grading for positive drainage, and installing any hardscape elements — walls, borders, pathways — before the planting phase begins. Proper preparation is what separates a landscape that thrives from one that struggles.
- Removal of unwanted plants, shrubs, and debris
- Soil amendment and bed preparation
- Grading for positive drainage away from structures
- Hardscape and edging installation completed first
Step IV
Installation, Cleanup & Walkthrough
With the site prepared, we install your new landscape according to the approved plan — placing trees and shrubs for long-term growth, spacing perennials for full coverage, and finishing with mulch, edging, and any decorative stone. We complete a thorough site cleanup, removing all debris and packaging, and conduct a final walkthrough with you to confirm every detail before we leave.
- Trees, shrubs, and perennials installed per the design plan
- Mulch, decorative stone, and edging applied and finished
- Complete site cleanup — zero debris left behind
- Homeowner walkthrough and plant care instructions provided
What Our Community Says
Our reputation is built one yard at a time, right here in Richfield and the surrounding communities. We don't rely on national advertising or paid leads — we rely on the referrals of homeowners who trusted us with their outdoor space and were genuinely delighted with the result. Here is what a few of them have to say about working with Sunset Landscaping LLC.
"We had a backyard that was an embarrassment — weeds, dead shrubs, bare dirt patches, and a concrete slab that went nowhere. Sunset Landscaping completely transformed it. New planting beds, a beautiful paver patio extension, a small garden wall, and the most gorgeous mix of perennials I have ever seen. It genuinely looks like a magazine photo now. Our family spends every evening out there."
— Linda & Tom W., Richfield, MN — Full Backyard Renovation
"The design consultation alone was worth calling them. The owner spent over an hour walking our yard with us, asked great questions, and came back with a plan that was so much better than anything we had imagined on our own. The installation crew was fast, respectful, and meticulous. Our front yard has never looked better."
— James R., Richfield, MN — Front Yard Redesign & Planting Beds
"I had gotten quotes from two other landscapers and both felt impersonal — like they were trying to sell me a package rather than actually listening to what I wanted. Sunset was completely different. They designed around my life, my schedule, and my budget. Three seasons later, everything they planted is thriving and I get compliments from my neighbors constantly."
— Karen M., Bloomington, MN — Complete Landscape Renovation

Common Questions
How long does a landscape renovation take?
Project timelines vary based on scope, but most residential landscape renovations are completed within two to five days. Larger full-yard redesigns may take one to two weeks. We provide a firm project schedule in your written proposal so you know exactly what to expect before work begins.
What is the best time of year to renovate my landscape in Minnesota?
Spring and early fall are the ideal seasons for landscape renovation in Minnesota. Spring planting allows new plants to establish through the growing season before winter. Fall planting — particularly for trees, shrubs, and perennials — gives root systems time to establish before the ground freezes. We work from April through October and are happy to recommend the best timing for your specific project.
Do you work with existing plants, or does everything need to come out?
We always begin with an inventory of your existing plant material and identify what is worth keeping, what can be refreshed, and what should be removed. Many renovation projects preserve healthy existing trees and shrubs while adding new planting beds, perennials, and hardscape elements around them. The goal is always the best outcome for your landscape — not the most extensive possible scope of work.
How much does a landscape renovation cost in Richfield?
Renovation costs vary significantly based on project scope, plant selections, and any hardscape elements included. A targeted planting bed refresh may start around a few thousand dollars, while a complete full-yard renovation with hardscape can range considerably higher. Every project receives a detailed, itemized written proposal with firm pricing — contact us for a free on-site estimate and we will give you an honest number.
