Every good yard starts as a drawing.

A design consultation turns what you want from the space into a plan the whole project can be priced and built from.

What this covers

Design starts on site. The consultation looks at sun and shade through the day, how the ground slopes, where water goes, which views matter from inside the house, and what is already worth keeping. Just as important is how the household wants to use the yard: dining, play, quiet, privacy, or simply less to maintain.

From there the plan sets out the bones of the space: patios and paths, lawn and planting areas, lighting positions and material suggestions. A good plan also shows what can be built later, so a first phase never has to be torn out for the second.

How a request works

1

You describe the space

A few photos and a sentence about what you want from the yard are enough to start.

2

A site visit is arranged

The business will confirm when it can see the sun, slope, drainage and access in person.

3

A plan is presented

The business will explain the plan and the proposal before anything is scheduled.

Landscape Design questions

No. Many plans are built in phases. The business can explain how a plan could be divided and which parts make sense to do first.
Yes. Photos of yards you like, a wish list, or a rough sketch all help the first conversation.
That depends on the business. It will explain how design and installation are proposed and what the consultation includes.
