WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

Initial Conversation

You'll begin by speaking with Isaac, our Design/Build lead. He will get to know you a little bit, your project, timeline, and anticipated budget, as well as schedule a site visit to get started.

Site Visit

When we come for a site visit, we will take on-the-ground photos of your property as well as aerial drone photos where applicable. Your designer will scope out the site for assessing space, and take notes of anything they need to consider during the design and build phases of your project.

Design Reviews

Your designer begins working on your landscape design, collaborating with you throughout the process. Design review meetings can take place in person here at our design center or over video. Keep in mind that depending on the complexity of your project and the type of design package you purchased, A completed design can take between one week and three months from start to finish.

Payment and Construction Scheduling

Once your design is approved by you, a project deposit will secure your spot in the schedule and allow our team to order materials in advance to save time and cost. Once construction is complete, your designer will schedule a final walkthrough with you of your project.

"We are so pleased with the outcome of the design. All of the plants and trees are so beautiful. We have much more privacy already and a little oasis of our own in our side yard now."
