Why Choose Cruger Contracting for Custom Landscape Design & Installation in MacDonnell Heights
Cruger Contracting LLC transforms MacDonnell Heights properties with thoughtful landscape design and professional installation that merge creativity with craftsmanship. Every project begins with a personal design consultation to understand your vision, property layout, and how you use your outdoor space. Our design team analyzes soil, sunlight, drainage, and grading to create balanced, functional plans that thrive in NY conditions.
We select plantings that offer beauty and performance—native species for low maintenance, evergreens for structure, flowering perennials for color, and ornamental trees for shade and privacy. Each design integrates with existing or planned hardscapes like patios, retaining walls, and walkways to create a cohesive, finished look.
Installation is performed by skilled crews who handle every phase: soil conditioning, precision planting, mulch application, edging, irrigation setup, and lighting integration. The result is a complete outdoor environment that matures gracefully over time. Whether refreshing a front yard, creating a private backyard retreat, or designing a full property plan, Cruger Contracting LLC delivers landscapes that look exceptional and function perfectly in MacDonnell Heights, Dutchess County.
Designs That Actually Fit Your Property
Most designs look great on paper but fail in real life. We design landscapes for how you actually use your property—built around your layout, sun exposure, and daily routine. Every plan we create in MacDonnell Heights is made to look natural, function perfectly, and stay that way for years.
Done to Last
We don’t cut corners with plants that die in two seasons or soil that settles after the first winter. Every landscape in MacDonnell Heights gets a proper foundation, professional planting depth, and proven materials that hold up to NY weather. Our work looks good the day we finish—and even better five years later.
Effective & Experienced

What Clients Say..
James was great to work with. He was proactive and did exactly what he said he would do at the price we agreed to.

Cruger Contractors arrived when they indicated they would be on the jobsite. They were efficient in completing the work and the results looked great.
Bruce H.
This project was large at least in my dwelling place. Restructure of the brick work I put in over 15 years ago. I had weeds growing uncontrollably and starting to hurt my plants. Cruger took care of it and even saved some of my favorites. Cruger has shown pride in their work and were extremely kind and wanted to do the best they can to achieve it. I am extremely satisfied in the final product. They were very fair in their pricing and were happy to work with my budget. I can’t stop looking at it. It brings a lot of joy and gives me an opportunity to add what I feel like adding without a weed issue ever again. Give them a call and you’ll be happy you did.
Howard B.
James did a phenomenal job. He cleared a large bluestone planter, mulched and planted a beautiful variety of perennials. He planted new azalea bushes in 2 other locations and everything looks amazing. His work was meticulously done. We are very pleased with how everything turned out, and will be calling James Cruger LLC for future work. Highly recommended.
