Greenville, Centreville & Montchanin
Landscape design, hardscaping and drainage in Greenville, DE
Green Acres works on larger residential properties in Greenville, Centreville and Montchanin, where lots are often bigger, trees are mature and the ground slopes toward the Brandywine Creek valley. Projects here usually start with a plan for how the yard drains, where a patio or wall belongs, and how the property will be maintained once it is built.
We design and build patios, walkways, retaining walls and stone steps, correct grading and drainage problems, and handle ongoing maintenance and tree work. Our office is at 978 S Market St in Wilmington, and Greenville is part of our regular New Castle County service area.

Services
Which services do Greenville properties use most?
Design-build, hardscape and drainage work are the main services for this area. Maintenance and tree work keep finished projects looking right.
Hardscaping
Patios, walkways, walls and stone work built to suit the slope and the house.
Retaining walls
Retaining walls in natural stone or block, sized for the grade and the load behind them.
Grading and drainage
Sloped lots near the Brandywine Creek valley move water fast. We regrade and install drainage where water collects.
Landscape maintenance
Recurring mowing, bed care and seasonal cleanups for larger lots.
Tree removal
Tree removal and pruning planned around houses, wires and nearby plantings.
What the ground is like in Greenville and Centreville
Greenville and Centreville sit in the Piedmont, north of the fall line, where the land rolls and drops toward Brandywine Creek. Slopes, rock and mature trees decide what can be built and where water goes.
That affects the work in three ways. Walls and steps often solve slope problems before they become decoration. Drainage needs a plan before any paving goes in. Large trees limit how close new construction can get to their roots.
Four things change the scope and cost of a project here:
- Slope and equipment access
- How much water has to be moved away from the house
- Wall height and the type of stone or block
- Tree roots and canopy near the work area

FAQ
Landscaping questions in Greenville
Do you landscape in Greenville and Centreville, DE?
Yes. Green Acres serves Greenville, Centreville and Montchanin from our Wilmington office at 978 S Market St. We take on design-build projects, hardscaping, grading and drainage, tree work and ongoing maintenance. Call (302) 332-8239 or request an estimate online and we will arrange an on-site visit to look at the property.
What hardscape work fits a sloped yard in the Greenville area?
Sloped lots usually call for retaining walls and stone steps first, then patios and walkways on the level areas that result. Natural stone and segmental block walls are both common. The right choice depends on wall height, soil and how you plan to use the space, which we assess during the on-site visit.
Can you fix water problems around a house in Centreville?
Often yes. We look at where water enters and leaves the property, then correct it with regrading, drainage lines or French drains. Fixing drainage before building a patio or wall protects the new work. We walk the property with you and explain the options during the estimate visit.
Do you maintain larger properties after building them?
Yes. Many clients keep us on for mowing, bed care, tree work and seasonal cleanups after a build, so one company knows the property from construction onward. Maintenance scope is set per property, and we quote it after an on-site visit.
Do I need approval before building a patio or wall in Greenville?
Some projects do. Communities with an HOA usually require architectural review, and larger walls or grading changes may need a permit from New Castle County or your municipality. Ask your HOA and the county before work starts, and tell us what they require so we can plan the project around it.
