Our Landscaping Design Process

Our experts take pride in offering a seamless and comprehensive landscape design process that ensures every detail aligns with your vision.

Here's what you can expect when you work with us:

Consult & Define

We start by getting to know you and your project. During this phase, we assess your existing site conditions, discuss your goals, and review our portfolio to inspire possibilities. We'll also outline budget expectations and explore design and build options tailored to your needs.

Next, we align your vision with feasibility, ensuring expectations meet reality. We address code and permitting requirements, establish project goals, and confirm the technical scope. We take site measurements and develop a clear plan for moving forward.

Design & Refine

This is where creativity comes to life. We develop multiple design scenarios to illustrate your options, incorporating both softscape and hardscape elements. Through collaboration, we finalize the preferred design plan, ensuring it aligns with your budget and expectations.

Once the design is finalized, we document everything for permitting and approvals. We select final materials and establish any necessary project phasing. We provide detailed pricing and scheduling so you have a clear understanding of the next steps.

Build & Maintain

Our team ensures a smooth execution of your project. We coordinate communication, integrate subcontractors, and oversee an efficient installation process with regular updates. Site observation by our designers ensures the final result meets our high standards of quality and design.

Our commitment doesn’t end with installation. We evaluate the site to determine ongoing requirements, replace any plants under warranty, and provide routine care to preserve the quality and beauty of your landscape for years to come.
