Serving the Greater St. Louis Metro Area

Green Operations provides hardscaping, landscaping, retaining walls, pool hardscapings, and outdoor living services within a roughly 30-mile radius of St. Louis. Owner Travis has been working in these communities for over 20 years, which means we know the terrain, the soil conditions, the local building codes, and the permitting requirements in every area we serve.

Whether you are in a historic St. Louis neighborhood looking to upgrade a crumbling concrete patio, a Jefferson County property owner dealing with hillside erosion, or a family in a new St. Charles County subdivision planning your first backyard project, we bring the same level of craftsmanship and Unilock-certified quality to every job site.

St. Louis City & County

Hardscaping & Landscaping in St. Louis

St. Louis city and county are where Green Operations was built. From the brick-lined streets of Webster Groves and the manicured lawns of Ladue to the growing neighborhoods of Wildwood and the established communities of Kirkwood and Clayton, we have completed projects in nearly every corner of the county.

The diversity of St. Louis architecture creates unique opportunities for hardscaping. Historic homes in Brentwood and Maplewood often need walkway and patio designs that complement early 20th-century craftsmanship. Newer homes in Chesterfield, Des Peres, and Town and Country tend toward larger-scale outdoor living spaces with pools, outdoor kitchens, and multi-level patios. Properties in Frontenac and Creve Coeur frequently call for retaining walls to manage elevation changes and create tiered garden spaces.

We also serve University City, Richmond Heights, Ballwin, Fenton, Sunset Hills, and Oakville. Whether you are replacing an aging concrete driveway with Unilock pavers, building a backyard fire pit for entertaining, or planning a complete outdoor transformation, we know St. Louis properties inside and out.

Communities served: Clayton, Ladue, Kirkwood, Webster Groves, Chesterfield, Creve Coeur, Ballwin, Wildwood, Town and Country, Des Peres, University City, Brentwood, Maplewood, Richmond Heights, Frontenac, Fenton, Sunset Hills, Oakville, and surrounding areas.

Jefferson County

Hardscaping & Retaining Walls in Jefferson County

Jefferson County's rolling terrain makes it one of the busiest areas for our retaining wall work. Properties in Arnold, High Ridge, Imperial, and House Springs are built on hillsides that require engineered wall systems to create flat, usable outdoor spaces. The combination of slopes, clay soil, and heavy Missouri rainfall makes proper drainage design essential, and that is exactly where our 20 years of experience pays off.

Beyond retaining walls, Jefferson County homeowners are increasingly investing in full backyard transformations. Larger lot sizes in Hillsboro, Cedar Hill, and Barnhart give us room to build expansive paver patios, pool decks, and outdoor living areas that take advantage of the natural landscape. Festus, Herculaneum, and Crystal City have seen a wave of new development, and homeowners there are adding hardscaping from day one rather than waiting for yards to settle.

The rural-suburban mix of Jefferson County means we regularly handle everything from small residential walkways to large-scale erosion control projects. We are familiar with the county's permitting requirements for retaining walls over 4 feet and work with local engineers when structural plans are needed.

Communities served: Arnold, Festus, Herculaneum, Hillsboro, Imperial, Barnhart, High Ridge, House Springs, Cedar Hill, Pevely, Crystal City, and surrounding areas.

St. Charles County

Hardscaping & Outdoor Living in St. Charles County

St. Charles County is one of the fastest-growing areas in the St. Louis metro, and that growth is driving strong demand for quality hardscaping and outdoor living construction. Young families in O'Fallon, St. Peters, and Wentzville are building their forever homes and want outdoor spaces designed for entertaining, cookouts, and kids. That means patios, fire pits, outdoor kitchens, and pools that get heavy use from April through October.

New subdivisions in Lake St. Louis, Dardenne Prairie, and Cottleville often come with builder-grade concrete patios that homeowners want to replace within a few years. We remove the old concrete and install Unilock paver systems that look better, last longer, and add real value to the home. Weldon Spring and historic downtown St. Charles have a different character, with established properties that benefit from landscape upgrades, walkway redesigns, and retaining wall additions.

St. Charles County's relatively flat terrain compared to Jefferson County means our work there tends to focus more on patios, driveways, and outdoor entertainment areas than on retaining walls. But the same attention to base preparation, drainage, and material quality applies to every project regardless of location.

Communities served: St. Charles, O'Fallon, St. Peters, Wentzville, Lake St. Louis, Dardenne Prairie, Cottleville, Weldon Spring, and surrounding areas.
