HDQ Landscaping has been serving the Detroit Lakes area since 2005. We started with three guys, a plan, and a commitment to doing things the right way — and that hasn’t changed. We’re still locally owned, still doing the work ourselves, and still treating every project like our name is on the line. Because it is.
Every person who has ever worked for HDQ came from this community. We hire local, buy local whenever we can, and care about the work we leave behind. Detroit Lakes is home — and when we build something here, we want it to last.
We run a tight, experienced crew by design. A smaller team means better communication, consistent quality, and work that gets done right the first time.
When you get a quote from us, that’s your number — or less. We don’t nickel-and-dime, we don’t surprise you with add-ons, and we don’t hand you a bill you didn’t expect. That’s just how we were raised to do business, and we’re not changing it.

We specialize in hardscaping (patios, retaining walls, and walkways), irrigation installation and service, plantings and softscaping, shoreline restoration, and commercial landscaping. We do not offer lawn mowing, spring cleanups, or fall cleanups — we focus on installation and construction work so every project gets the attention it deserves.
We’re based in Detroit Lakes, MN and serve the surrounding lakes area communities. Not sure if you’re in our service area? Give us a call or send us a message and we’ll let you know.
Just fill out the contact form on our website or give us a call. We’ll set up a time to walk the project with you, talk through what you’re looking for, and get you a clear number — no guesswork.
We give you a price upfront, and that’s your number — or less. We don’t add on surprise charges or bill you for things we didn’t discuss. If anything changes during the project, we talk to you about it first.
Our schedule fills up, especially in the spring and summer. The sooner you reach out, the better. We’ll give you an honest timeline when we meet to go over your project.
Yes. We work with municipalities, schools, businesses, and other commercial properties throughout the Detroit Lakes area. Commercial inquiries are welcome — just reach out through the contact page.
We’ll walk you through everything when we meet. In most cases, not much is needed from you ahead of time — we handle the logistics and let you know if there’s anything specific to your project we’ll need you to take care of beforehand.
