Services
Old North State was born in the 1980's by a man named Bill Strope. Bill created this company with a wheel barrow, a shovel, and a handful of dirt. When ONS first started out, it was no more than a small landscaping and maintenance company providing services to the community. Since the creation of the company more than 40 years ago, ONS has become an organization and family of skilled craftsmen, designers, and administration.
You've had a vision of what you want out of a landscaping project for a long time, maybe even looked at a few luxury pool or design magazines. You deserve a company that'll go above and beyond on the project of your dreams. Old North State will do just that-we're as excited about your project as you are, maybe even more.
The driving factor to this entire property was to create a formal landscape that brought in elements of stone to enhance the property. Entertaining was another key factor of this space. The main focus of this project was to be one with nature. This mountain lodge style home was tucked into a surround of trees.
The formal gardens are divided into distinct spaces and surround the entire house. Lush and evocative plants brimming with color, texture, and aroma grow year round, creating a natural harmony that frames the house and shapes the property. Evergreen spiral topiaries and boxwoods, as well as thirty foot magnolias and American hollies were planted around the perimeter to discourage conversations over the back fence.
In North Carolina, it can be a challenge incorporating modern structures and elements to a very rustic and traditionally "NC Style." When ONS arrived, the pool and walls around the pool were already installed, so we had to get creative in how to incorporate a modern cabana.

THIS IS THE LANDSCAPER YOU SHOULD HIRE! We have had others and there is no comparison. If you want the job done right the first time this is who to call. The initial quote was a bit high for us, but we narrowed the project a bit and made some changes to get costs down. It is worth every penny. We have spent so many hours trying to get other companies to get sprinkler systems to actually work or to redo poor workmanship. I regret not using ONS from the very start of our landscaping project.

I can not say enough positive things about this company. From our first experience with Whitney and Will and the rest of the crew our experience was Outstanding! We had a massive backyard project from landscaping to poured patio and stone work to electrical and plumbing, you name it, they did it. Quality of work and customer service including communication was second to none. Can't wait to find more projects for them to do.

The workmanship of Old North State is second to none. Their attention to detail on every aspect of the job process was incredible. We now live in our back yard and every time we go outside the stunning craftsmanship amazes us. Highly recommend this company and would use them again.

I purchased a home in North Raleigh which was in foreclosure and had no landscaping . The crew at Old North State Landscaping went well above and beyond in their efforts to landscape a barren yard. Look up the pictures on Zillow Afro the address at 4001 Soaring Talon Court, Raleigh 27614.

Bill and his team at ONS are second to none when it comes to building the landscape of your dreams. After viewing the work of several other companies, their work is a cut above and I have since used ONS a second time and won't hesitate to use them again (as well as recommend them). The masons on the ONS team had an attention to detail for the entire project that amazes us on a daily basis. The compliments we consistently get not only praise the work but more importantly, the way the entire project works into our existing property in a way that it looks like it just belongs there. Nothing looks

They just completed an intricate project for me. From the start I couldn't be more pleased. They came in at a fair price (I got three bids) and did everything they'd say on budget! That's right on budget!!! And also here's the crazy part, two days early! I would recommend them to anyone! Will was great, be sure to ask for him....

We had a tremendous drainage problem on our property, which is on a fairly steep hill. Rain would cause running water down the gravel driveway we share with our neighbor, to the point where the ruts were deep enough to do damage to our vehicles, and her front walkway was routinely flooded. We also realized that getting from our driveway to our front door would be impossible if we were injured or in a wheelchair, because the driveway is 10 feet higher, with the only acsess a stone stairway. Old North State did a wonderful job solving both problems. The drainage has held up beautifully to the torrential
