The Bronx is famous for its tight-knit neighborhoods, historic housing stock, and surprisingly abundant green spaces. When homeowners plan new builds, additions, or gut renovations in the borough, landscaping is often an after-thought. At CountBricks, we treat the yard as an integral construction phase—one that protects structural investments and adds measurable resale value. By fusing AI-powered estimating with on-site craftsmanship, CountBricks delivers Bronx landscaping that is as precise as it is beautiful.
