The Landscape Design Process

Not every project requires a landscape design. For those that do, our professional design services can help you visualize your outdoor ideas.

Maybe you want to preview your work before signing on the dotted line. Maybe you're ready to start a large project, many of which cannot be completed with a design to act as the installation roadmap.

Either way, we'll make that determination during the consultation process, so you can be comfortable with the proposal before committing to your project.

Not All Projects Require a Design 

In some cases, you may not need a landscape design. Many of these enhancement projects can be planned by utilizing plant lists and written descriptions.

If this alternative fits your project scope, your landscape designer will explain this during your on-site consultation.

In every case, our team will work together to make sure your project gets the attention it deserves.

Design & Installation - Better Together 

You've spent plenty of time imagining your great new backyard. A detailed landscape design is the culmination of that creative process. 

Taking those ideas into the world is where we really shine. 

Our teams specialize in installing beautiful landscapes, from simple plantings to large outdoor living areas and everything in between. 

Trusting the same team to design and build your project ensures your outdoor spaces turn out exactly as you imagined them.

How do I know if I need a design?
Not all projects require designs. Simple installations can be done without taking this step. However, some large projects, or those with multiple overlapping elements, may require a design. These help you picture your new outdoor spaces and guide our crews during the installation process.
Is there a charge for landscape design?
Yes. This fee will vary based on the scope of your project. This will be discussed during your onsite consultation. We do ask that you pay for your design before we get to work on it.
Can I hire you just for a design, so I or someone else can install the work?
Yes, but we hope that you don't. Our goal is to install all of the designs which we create.
How long does the landscape design and installation process take?

The process can vary depending on the time of year, so we recommend planning far in advance to hit your installation goals. 

On average, these are timeframes you can expect for each part of the process.

  • Consultations: 1-2 week lead time.
  • Design: 2-3 weeks after on-site consultation.
  • Installation: 4-6 weeks after contract approval (in most cases).
Do I get to keep the design even if I don't proceed with the project?
Yes, the design is yours to keep and you will have a landscape design to work from as you please.
