Landscaping, lawn maintenance, irrigation and tree work for The Colony properties in Bastrop.
The Colony in Bastrop keeps growing, section by section. The county's subdivision rolls show roughly 40 platted sections spread across seven Colony municipal utility districts, and Bastrop ISD opened Colony Oaks Elementary nearby in August 2023 to serve the new homes going up in the area. For a landscaping crew, that means a lot of our work here is first-yard work: builder fill that needs real grading, new sod going down, and irrigation lines getting set before the turf arrives.
Water in The Colony runs through the district system rather than a private well, so irrigation is metered water and whatever watering schedule that district has in place at the time. Central Texas summers do not go easy on a new lawn or a young tree, so beds and turf need a watering plan that matches the heat instead of fighting it. The community's ponds and its amenity tract hold the standing water, which keeps most bank and drainage questions at the shared-area level rather than in your own yard, but grading around your own lot still has to move water away from the foundation.
Hiring Corral Bros for a Colony property starts with a free on-site estimate, usually scheduled within 48 hours. We walk the lot, check the grade and the irrigation setup, and if the property sits inside a gated section with its own design rules, we read those before we draw up beds, fences, or tree plans. We handle landscaping and design, lawn and property maintenance, irrigation and drainage, tree service, hardscapes, and grading, for both new construction and established yards.
We work throughout the Bastrop area along the I-35 corridor, and The Colony's steady pace of new construction, roughly 40 platted sections across its municipal utility districts, keeps us out there often for everything from first-yard installs to ongoing lawn care. We schedule both one-time jobs and recurring maintenance.
You call or request a visit, and we schedule a free, no-obligation on-site estimate, usually within 48 hours. We walk the lot, look at the grade, check whether irrigation is already roughed in, and if your section is part of a gated area with its own design rules, we factor that into the plan before we quote anything.
Most Colony yards sit on fill from recent construction rather than established native soil, which means compaction and drainage issues are common before anything gets planted. Since water and wastewater run through the municipal utility district rather than a private well, irrigation design has to work within whatever watering restrictions your district has in place, not a one-size schedule for all of Bastrop.
New sod on builder fill dries out fast in July and August, so the mowing height, watering frequency, and fertilization schedule all need to adjust for that rather than follow a generic calendar. We set up maintenance plans that track the season and the specific soil condition of your yard instead of guessing.
Yes, we provide tree service and land clearing for both wooded lots and open new-construction sites. The Colony sits in heavily treed terrain by the Bastrop EDC's own description, so pruning, deadwood removal, and clearing for new beds or structures are common requests we handle alongside the landscaping work.
