Thank God for Earth Artisans. We were in the middle of an awful experience with our pool installation company and fortunately we were introduced to Preston and his team. He/they were able to take over a large portion of the project form the pool company and deliver an amazing experience and finished product. It'll only take you about 30 seconds to recognize that he loves what he does and that he had the knowledge and experience to turn every project into a masterpiece. They demonstrate the ability to combine the extraction and use of what's in your head with their experience and vision to nurture the project into perfection. They set clear expectations, they show up when they say they're going to, they work hard, and they deliver an impeccable product. If you're putting in a pool, then I recommend letting the pool company dig the hole, and put everything else into the hands of Earth Artisans. From design to softscapes to hardscapes and everything outdoors, I can't say enough about this team.
Happy we chose Earth Artisans! I had been struggling with water and landscape issues in my back and side yards for many years. One local lawn company even sold me sod, which either died or was washed away in storms. At the Southern Home show, I met Preston Whitfield and was impressed by his enthusiasm to solve my landscape problems. He came out to our home and had some great ideas and suggestions about what could be done. His cost estimate was comparable with other estimates I had received from other companies. Preston’s eagerness to create something that would fit our lifestyle, instead of just telling us what to do, was a huge difference between Earth Artisans and the other companies! We went with almost all of Preston’s suggestions and are very glad that we did! We now have a park like environment with a great drainage solution hidden within it! The yard was graded to make it more usable and an impressive functional sitting wall and other hardscapes were installed that removed all the troubles that trying to maintain a turf yard entails. The team that did the work did a great job! They were all very polite and hard workers. I asked for a couple upgrades as work progressed so the job took a couple extra days and cost a little more but the end product should last way beyond my years and looks fabulous! Whatever your landscape needs are, you should give Preston a call and give him a chance to work with you for a solution that meets your needs and looks great!
I don't even know of where to begin. Earth Artisans did an incredible job on my project. The professionalism and customer service was above and beyond. Working with Preston Whitfield was a great experience, He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I would refer anyone to this company.
Book your project now and let us build a lasting, custom landscape for your Raleigh home.

Custom outdoor spaces built for Raleigh homes, with thoughtful design, hardscaping, and lasting curb appeal.
Raleigh gives homeowners a lot to work with. From established neighborhoods with mature trees to newer homes that need a full outdoor plan, this city has all kinds of properties and lifestyles. We design and build outdoor spaces that fit the way people in Raleigh actually live—more time outside, better curb appeal, and landscapes that feel natural, useful, and built to last in North Carolina conditions.
At Earth Artisans, we bring 40 years of combined hands-on experience to every project. Our team is small by design, which means you get personal service, clear communication, and a crew that cares about the details. We handle the process from planning and design to construction, so you don’t have to juggle multiple contractors or guess what comes next.
In Raleigh, outdoor spaces do a lot of heavy lifting. They need to look great, hold up through hot summers and changing seasons, and give you a place to relax, host friends, or spend time with family. We build landscapes with purpose—mixing beauty, comfort, and what we like to call plenty of FUNction.
Whether you want a quiet garden retreat, a custom patio for entertaining, or a full outdoor living area with stonework, shade, and fire features, we can design a space around your home and your vision.
We offer custom landscape design and construction services for homeowners who want more than a basic yard upgrade.
We started Earth Artisans in 2023, but our team brings more than two decades of real landscape design and build experience. We are licensed and insured, we provide free estimates, and we focus on doing the job correctly from the ground up. From bare dirt to final walkthrough, we guide you through each step and keep the project moving.
Our work is centered around the thoughtful use of earth, stone, metal, fire, and water to create a one-of-a-kind outdoor setting. That means your finished space won’t feel cookie-cutter. It will feel like it belongs to your home, your property, and your lifestyle.
We work with homeowners across Raleigh, including areas like North Hills, Five Points, Brier Creek, Hayes Barton, Cameron Village, and surrounding communities. No matter where you are in Raleigh, we are ready to help you create a landscape that adds value to your property and makes everyday life better.
