The '& More' in our name.
Emerald Exteriors handles the outdoor work in-house. The '& More' is everything else — bigger projects we coordinate through trusted local contractor partners so you get one point of contact for the whole job.
One call. One team. Every part of the project handled.
In-house, Emerald Exteriors focuses on landscaping, hardscaping, French drains & drainage, and land clearing. When a project goes beyond that — roofing, siding, fencing, concrete, decks, windows, gutters or a full remodel — that's the "& More." We bring in vetted local contractors we've worked with and trust, coordinate the scope, and keep the project moving so you don't have to chase five different companies.

What "& More" covers
Handled through trusted local contractor partners we coordinate for you.
How an "& More" project actually runs
Simple, transparent, and built so you're not coordinating five contractors yourself.
1. You reach out
Call, text or fill out the quote form. Tell us what you're trying to get done — even if it's more than one trade.
2. We walk the project
We come out, look at the full scope, and figure out what Emerald handles in-house and what falls under '& More.'
3. We bring in trusted partners
For the '& More' work, we loop in local contractors we've vetted and worked with before — not random subs off a list.
4. One point of contact
You deal with us. We help keep the project organized so you're not chasing five different companies.
Built for projects bigger than one trade
Vetted partners only
We only refer contractors we've actually worked alongside and trust to show up and do the job right.
Honest about scope
If it's outside what we do well, we say so — and connect you with someone who does it well.
Built for bigger jobs
Roof + gutters + siding + a new deck? That's exactly the kind of project '& More' was built for.
Outdoor work stays with us
Landscaping, hardscapes, drainage and land clearing are always handled by the Emerald crew directly.
What an "& More" job actually looks like
A few common combinations homeowners come to us with.
Storm-damage recovery
Roof replacement + gutters + siding repair, with regrading and a French drain to keep water away from the foundation.
Backyard transformation
Paver patio + retaining wall + landscape beds + new deck and privacy fencing tied into the design.
New build prep
Land clearing, grading and drainage handled in-house, then concrete driveway and fencing through partners.
Whole-home exterior refresh
Siding, windows and gutters via partners, with landscaping, hardscapes and downspout drainage done by Emerald.
Rental property turnover
Brush clearing, fencing repairs, exterior cleanup and interior paint/flooring coordinated under one project.
Drainage + concrete fix
Identify the water problem, install French drains, then bring in concrete partners to repair or replace damaged slabs.
Not a random list of names.
Every "& More" partner is a local contractor we've personally worked alongside or watched perform. They've earned a referral by showing up on time, doing quality work, and communicating clearly with the homeowner. If a partner stops meeting that bar, we stop sending them work.
- Local to our service area — Shepherdsville, Mount Washington, Brooks & surrounding KY.
- Properly insured for the trade they perform.
- Verified track record on real projects we've been on-site for.
- Clear, direct communication with homeowners.
- Honest pricing and written estimates.
Clear scope. Honest numbers.
- A written scope of what Emerald handles in-house vs what's covered by a partner.
- Direct pricing from each contractor — no hidden markups slipped into a single bill.
- A realistic timeline that sequences the work so trades don't trip over each other.
- One number to call when something needs to be coordinated or adjusted.
What "& More" is — and isn't
- • A network of trusted local trades we coordinate for bigger projects.
- • A way to keep one point of contact across multiple trades.
- • Honest referrals to people we've actually worked with.
- • Optional — you can hire Emerald for just the outdoor work.
- • Not a general contracting license — we don't pull permits as a GC.
- • Not Emerald crews performing roofing, siding, or interior trades ourselves.
- • Not a paid-leads directory — referrals are based on trust, not fees.
- • Not a markup scheme — partner contractors quote and bill their own work.
Local partners for a local area
Our "& More" network is built around the homeowners we serve every day — Shepherdsville, Mount Washington, Brooks and the surrounding Kentucky communities.
If it carries the Emerald referral, it has to earn it.
We'd rather tell you "that's not our wheelhouse" than hand you off to someone we don't trust. Every partner in the "& More" network is there because we'd hire them at our own house.
Common questions about "& More"
So what does '& More' actually mean?+
Emerald Exteriors does outdoor property work in-house — landscaping, hardscaping, drainage and land clearing. The '& More' is everything beyond that: roofing, siding, fencing, concrete, decks, windows, gutters, remodeling. Those services are delivered through trusted local contractor partners we coordinate for you.
Are the '& More' services done by Emerald crews?+
No. The '& More' work is handled by partnered local contractors we know and trust. Emerald stays focused on outdoor property improvements and helps coordinate so you have one main point of contact.
Why work with a network instead of hiring contractors myself?+
Because vetting contractors takes time. We've already done it. You get people we've worked with, who show up, who communicate, and who do quality work — without you cold-calling five companies.
Can I hire Emerald for just the outdoor work?+
Absolutely. Most of our jobs are landscaping, hardscaping, drainage or land clearing. The '& More' option is there if you need it — not required.
Do you mark up the partner contractors?+
Pricing for partner work comes from the partner directly. We're happy to coordinate, but you'll get straight answers on who's doing what and what it costs.
