At Your House
Your Design Estimate & Preliminary Design
Personal
(MAKING SURE YOUR LOVE IT!)
IF you need formal, computer-printed design plans to submit to a governmental body like an HOA, or if you just want a very detailed and precise design plan (sometimes helpful when breaking up installations over time), you will be meeting with your designer/architect multiple times. We send an estimate to you, outlining all the details of the cost of your estimate, which is influenced by the size and scope of your job. Once you approve the estimate, we want to get everything just right and allow for more than one conversation/edit to your plan.
You now have a plan of attack and the means to clearly communicate when moving forward: Our installation experts are here to help you into the next phase, if that's what you want to do. You own your plan and it can serve you for many years to come. Complete the installation right away or break it up into more bite-size installations over a longer period of time.

(PLANS & DREAMS REALIZED)
Our installation team is a perfect match to our design team! We look forward to working with you. For example, if necessary, we can break the project estimate into multiple installations, or we can offer advice on downsizing more expensive plants, or we can offer ideas on substituting expensive hardscaping stone for look-alike or alternative materials. We're here to work with you, we love what we do, and we're great at our job!
