Our team brings together experienced landscape professionals dedicated to quality craftsmanship and thoughtful design.

Whether you’re planning a full backyard renovation, hardscape installation, landscape redesign, or a multi-trade outdoor project, Madlinger Exterior Design provides seamless coordination from start to finish. We collaborate closely with architects, engineers, pool contractors, carpenters, electricians, HVAC specialists, and plumbers to ensure every detail of your exterior project is executed with precision.

With years of hands-on experience managing complex landscape projects across New Jersey, we guide clients through every step — turning ideas into refined, lasting outdoor spaces designed to be enjoyed for years to come.

Landscape Design
Our design process begins with understanding how you live and how your landscape can enhance that experience. From detailed planning and material selection to advanced 3D modeling, we develop cohesive outdoor environments that balance beauty, functionality, and long-term value.

Landscape Installation
Once the vision is finalized, our team manages every phase of construction — including hardscapes, patios, outdoor kitchens, lighting, plantings, and structural elements. With daily oversight and coordination across trades, we ensure each installation meets the highest standards of craftsmanship.

Property Maintenance
Beyond design and construction, we offer tailored maintenance programs that protect and preserve your investment. Seasonal plant care, landscape upkeep, and event-ready property preparation allow you to enjoy your outdoor space without the ongoing work.

"After interviewing multiple landscape design companies, there was no question about choosing Madlinger Exterior Design. From the initial meeting to the finished project, Drew and his crew have been a pleasure to work with. Drew designed a complete backyard plan that included a stone fireplace, bluestone patio and a built in stone grill station. His crew, through their hard work and attention to detail, created a beautiful backyard oasis.

"Drew’s presence throughout this project, answering any and all questions and concerns, made this process from the design phase all through the execution and completion totally stress free. His highly skilled men worked tirelessly, giving attention to every detail ; how amazing to see every stone hand chiseled so that they fit perfectly in place. My family and friends are in total awe over the transformation and I doubt very much you could find a landscape company more knowledgeable, design savvy, and willing to go the extra mile."

"I have used Madlinger Exterior Designs for several projects around my property over the past 3 years and have always been very impressed with their level of service, quality of work, attention to detail and their true desire to make sure that I am satisfied with all work performed. Drew Madlinger and his team are very dependable, they start the project when promised and also keep you informed with the progress of the work. I would highly recommend them, and I plan on continuing to use them for future projects."

"Madlinger Exterior Design was synonymous with professionalism in every aspect of our project. After interviewing several companies, from our first meeting we were confident we wanted to work with Drew, and he did not disappoint. He was patient, accommodating and willing to coordinate with our contractor doing other work for us. He answered phone calls and emails promptly. His crew, courteous and neat, are true craftsmen."
