Landscaping in Sterlington, LA
Landscaping That Takes Sterlington Yards Past Builder Basic
Mulch installs, flower bed design, hedge trimming, and seasonal cleanups from $150 — built for new subdivisions and the mature lots between them.
Builder landscaping in Sterlington's newer subdivisions follows a formula: a few shrubs by the front door, a skim of mulch, and a back yard that is all grass and possibility. It looks fine on closing day. By the second August, that thin mulch has cooked off, the bed edges have blurred, and Bermuda runners are invading the flower beds from every direction. College Bros landscaping crews spend a lot of time in 71280 fixing exactly that — bed refreshes start at $150, and most full projects land between $200 and $3,000.
The Louisiana climate is the real opponent here. Summer heat pulls moisture out of bare soil within hours, which is why a proper mulch install — ours run $150 to $1,200 depending on bed size and depth — does far more than look tidy. A real three-inch layer holds water at the roots, blocks weed seed from germinating, and carries your plantings through the worst of the heat without a doubled water bill. Spring swings the other way: storm season scatters limbs and debris across Sterlington yards, and our storm cleanup service ($100–$1,200 depending on volume) gets it gathered, hauled, and gone.
New Beds for New Builds, Renewal for Established Ones
For new-construction homes we design and plant beds from scratch — heat-tough choices in full-sun front yards, shade-friendly picks where young trees will eventually fill out, and clean borders that make the whole street look at your house first. On the older lots toward the Ouachita River, the work flips: mature shrubs that have gone woody and shapeless get restorative trimming, tired beds get cut back, re-edged, and re-mulched, and a decade of accumulated leaf litter comes out in a spring or fall cleanup. Different yards, same standard.

Landscaping Services in Sterlington
Mulch Installation & Bed Refresh
Edged, weeded, and mulched to a depth that actually suppresses weeds and holds moisture through Louisiana summers. Installs run $150–$1,200 based on bed square footage, and a refresh is the single fastest curb-appeal upgrade a Sterlington home can buy.
Flower Bed Design & Planting
Plant selections matched to the lot: sun-hardy varieties for wide-open new-build front yards, shade lovers under the mature canopy on established streets. We design for how the bed will look in three years, not just on install day.
Hedge & Shrub Trimming
Shaping that keeps shrubs dense and healthy instead of shearing them into decline. Overgrown hollies and foundation plantings on older Sterlington lots usually need staged restoration rather than one brutal haircut — we know the difference.
Spring & Fall Cleanups
Beds cut back and reset, leaves and debris removed, edges redefined, fresh mulch down. One visit takes a yard from end-of-season rough to ready, and recurring customers book them automatically each year.
Storm Cleanup
When a spring squall drops limbs across the yard, we clear, cut, and haul for $100–$1,200 depending on what came down. Same-day response on storm calls, with crews already working routes through Sterlington.

What Your Neighbors Say
These guys are the real deal. Showed up on time, did an incredible job on our yard, and the price was more than fair. We've used them three times now and they never disappoint.
I needed my house soft washed before putting it on the market. College Bros made it look brand new. The buyer's agent even complimented how clean everything was. Worth every penny.
We manage several rental properties and College Bros handles all of them. Reliable, affordable, and they communicate better than companies twice their size. Highly recommend.
Had them do a full spring cleanup — leaf removal, mulching, bush trimming, the works. My yard hasn't looked this good in years. Already booked them for monthly maintenance.
Professional, courteous, and they do incredible work. I've tried other lawn services in Monroe and none of them compare. College Bros is the only crew I trust with my property.
They pressure washed our entire driveway, sidewalks, and back patio. It looks like we just poured new concrete. Absolutely amazing transformation. Will be using them again.
Sterlington Landscaping FAQs
How much does landscaping cost in Sterlington, LA?
Landscaping in Sterlington starts at $150, and most complete projects run between $200 and $3,000 depending on bed size, plant count, and materials. Mulch installation alone runs $150–$1,200, and storm cleanup runs $100–$1,200 by debris volume. Every job gets a firm quote after a walkthrough, so the number you approve is the number you pay — full details are on the pricing page.
How much does mulch installation cost in Sterlington?
Mulch installs in Sterlington run $150 to $1,200, driven mostly by total bed square footage, mulch depth, and how much prep the beds need first. A small front-entry bed sits at the low end, while a full property with deep beds and fresh edging lands higher. College Bros quotes the exact price after seeing the beds — book through /book and you will hear back the same day.
Can you replace the builder landscaping on a new Sterlington home?
Yes — upgrading builder-grade landscaping is one of the most common projects College Bros runs in Sterlington's newer subdivisions. That typically means widening or adding beds, swapping the handful of contractor shrubs for a designed planting plan, installing proper mulch depth, and defining clean borders. Done well, it changes the entire face of a new house for a fraction of what the lot cost.
When should hedges be trimmed in Sterlington, LA?
In Northeast Louisiana, most hedges and shrubs respond best to trimming after their spring growth flush, with lighter touch-ups through summer and a final shaping before growth slows in fall. Heavy pruning right before the hottest stretch of August or just ahead of a cold snap stresses plants, so timing matters as much as technique. College Bros schedules trimming around those windows and can put your shrubs on a recurring plan.
Do you handle storm cleanup in Sterlington?
Yes. After spring storms move through Sterlington, College Bros crews clear downed limbs, scattered debris, and damaged plantings, then haul everything off — typically $100 to $1,200 depending on how much came down. Storm calls get a same-day response, and because crews already work routes through 71280, cleanup usually starts quickly. Call or text (318) 600-9123 or book online with photos of the damage.
How soon can you start a landscaping project in Sterlington?
You will hear back the same day you reach out, and straightforward work like mulch refreshes and cleanups usually happens within the week since Sterlington is on existing routes. Larger design-and-plant projects get scheduled after the walkthrough and quote, and we confirm dates rather than guessing at them. Booking online starts the clock fastest.
