Landscape Design in Cumming, GA

A drawn plan for the whole yard before anything is built.

Back yard with a patio, garden beds and young trees

What it involves

What goes into it.

A design puts the whole yard on paper first: where the patio, walls, paths and planting go, how the levels step down, where the water drains and where the light falls in the evening.

You can build it all at once or in stages. With a plan, the patio you build this year still fits the kitchen or pavilion you add later.

People usually call us about this when

  • You have ideas but no clear picture of the whole yard
  • You plan to build in stages over a few years
  • You just bought the house and want to start right
  • Your HOA wants drawings before you build
  • The yard has a slope or drainage problem to solve first

What happens next

How the job runs.

  1. Tell us how you use the yard

    Who uses it, what you want to do out there and what you do not like about it now.

  2. We measure and draw

    We measure the yard and the grades and draw a plan with materials and planting.

  3. Review and build

    We go through the plan with you, change what you want changed, and price the parts you want built.

Price and timing

What changes the price.

We tell you when the drawings will be ready when we agree on the design. Building can start as soon as you approve the plan and the price.

  • The size of the yard
  • How detailed the drawings need to be
  • Whether your HOA needs a submittal set
  • How many rounds of changes you want

Questions people ask

What to know about landscape design.

Do I have to build everything at once?

No. Many people build in stages. The plan makes sure each stage fits the next.

Do you do the planting too?

Yes. The plan includes trees, shrubs and beds, and we install them when we build.

Can you work with a plan from someone else?

Yes. Send it over and we will price it, and point out anything the site will not allow.
