About Esterly Link
Design, craftsmanship, and long-term landscape care
Esterly Link Landscapes is a full-service design and build landscape company serving the Main Line and surrounding communities — from first consultation and site analysis through plans, installation, on-site supervision, and optional ongoing care when you want your landscape to stay at its best.
Who we are
A practice built around outdoor living
We approach each property as a collaboration: listening first, then shaping land, structure, and planting into a coherent outdoor environment. As a full-service design and build firm, we emphasize thoughtful design and exceptional plant materials — with accredited landscape designers and fully equipped crews to carry work from paper to finished landscape.
Your priorities stay at the center of the process. We integrate client needs and preferences into every phase — from initial consultation and site analysis through conceptual planning, detailed plans, and color renderings when they help you see the work ahead — so decisions stay clear before construction begins.
Our work spans corporate, residential, commercial, and environmental projects, as well as seasonal and occasional services when you need focused support. Annual maintenance and care programs are available when you want professional stewardship after installation.
How we work
From first visit to long-term care
The pathway below reflects how we engage on-site and in the office — aligned with the services we describe across this site.
-
Consultation & site analysis
We begin with an on-site consultation and initial site analysis so we understand your goals, the conditions of the land, and how you intend to live outdoors.
-
Conceptual planning & layout
Conceptual sketches and layout options are developed and reviewed with you — tailored to your tastes and to the opportunities of the site.
-
Plans, details & renderings
We prepare complete landscape design plans with details, and color renderings when they help you visualize the finished environment before construction.
-
Construction & installation
When plans are approved, our crews complete coordinated construction and landscape installation across the scopes your project requires.
-
Supervision & materials
Work is personally supervised by Greg or a member of the management team. We select high-quality nursery stock and landscape materials to meet the standards of each job.
-
Optional maintenance
Maintenance contracts and care programs are available when you want disciplined seasonal attention after installation — aligned with the ongoing landscape services we offer.
