Designed on your property, in person, in the order that stops you paying for the same work twice.
When somebody says their yard looks tired and they cannot say why, the cause is rarely the plants. It is almost always structure — no defined lines, beds that do not relate to the architecture, nothing drawing the eye anywhere, and usually water going somewhere it should not.
Adding plants to that does not fix it. It just makes a bigger version of the same thing.
Design is the process of deciding what the space is for and how it should be organised, before anybody buys a single shrub.
This is the single most useful thing on this page, so it goes near the top.
There is a correct sequence for landscape work in expansive clay, and doing it out of order is expensive:
Nearly every landscaping regret we get called out to look at is a sequence problem. Beautiful beds installed over a drainage issue. New sod laid before the grade was fixed. A patio poured where the water needed to go. Each of those is a job that has to be partly undone.
If your budget will not cover everything now, that is completely normal — and it is an argument for phasing in this order, not for skipping step one.
The site visit. Justin walks the property with you. What you like, what you avoid, how you actually use the space, where the sun is at four in the afternoon in July, where the water goes. This is also where we find the things that were never on your list — a grade running toward the house, an irrigation zone that has not worked in years.
The plan. Scaled layout, plant schedule with real sizes and quantities, materials, and where relevant a grading and drainage plan and hardscape detail. Enough that any competent contractor could build from it.
The revisions. Expect to change things. That is the point of drawing it before building it.
The build. Same company, same owner, same accountability. The person who designed it is on site while it goes in.
A design that ignores where it is gets replaced in five years.
Full-property landscape work in this market covers a very wide range — a targeted front-entry improvement and a comprehensive outdoor-living build are different orders of magnitude. Published DFW ranges bear that out, and we have written them up in the cost guide rather than making you ask.
What we will say plainly: a good design makes a smaller budget go further, because it stops you spending money in the wrong order.

For a straightforward planting refresh, the design is usually folded into the project. For a full-property plan with grading, hardscape and lighting, design is real work and is quoted as such. Across the industry it is standard for a design fee to be credited against the installation if you proceed with the same company, and that is how we prefer to handle it — you are not paying twice for one piece of thinking.
That depends on what you need. A consultation is a conversation and direction. A design is a scaled plan with a plant schedule you or anyone else could build from. A full-property master plan adds grading and drainage, hardscape detail, lighting and irrigation layout, and a phasing sequence. We will tell you which one your project genuinely needs rather than selling the largest.
Yes, and for most properties that is the sensible route. The critical thing is doing the stages in the right order. Drainage, grading and irrigation first, hardscape second, planting and turf third, lighting last. Phasing in that order means nothing gets torn out later.
Design is typically a couple of weeks from site visit to plan, longer for a complex property. Installation depends entirely on scope — a front yard refresh is days, a full-property build with hardscape is weeks. Weather moves everything in spring, and we would rather tell you that up front than quote a date we cannot hold.
We can prepare what the architectural committee needs. Bridlewood, Wellington, Canyon Falls, Highland Shores and Lantana are all covenant-heavy, and submissions there need drawings rather than a description. Factor review time into your schedule — it is frequently the longest single step.
Yes. A lot of yards that feel wrong need one structural change and better maintenance, not a redesign. If that is what we see, that is what we will tell you.
Justin did a great job figuring out what I needed for my flowerbed because I had no clue! Justin and his crew did a great job of cleaning out my weedy flowerbed and making it beautiful.
Thank you so much for trusting in us Lisa. It was a pleasure creating your design and bringing it to life!
Justin and his team did an outstanding job transforming our overgrown landscaping into something beautiful again. They…
Thank you so much Kerry! It was a pleasure helping you both. We are here when you need us.
Justin and his team did an amazing job replacing our French Drains! Highly recommend them for any large landscaping project.
Brent, thank you for trusting in us! We are pleased to hear you love the work. Thank you for being such a great customer.
Every town here sits on the same Blackland Prairie clay, and every one of them creates a slightly different version of the problem. Pick yours:
Home base. Large-lot properties, half-acre and up, where drainage has further to travel and irrigation has more ground to cover.
Double Oak landscaping →
Bridlewood, Wellington, Canyon Falls and the lake-adjacent neighborhoods — where 1990s-era irrigation is hitting the age when it starts failing.
Flower Mound landscaping →
Highland Shores and the south shore of Lewisville Lake — 1,800-plus homes built in one wave, and their sprinkler systems are aging in one wave too.
Highland Village landscaping →
The widest range of housing age in the service area — 1950s core to new build — which means no two yards here need quite the same thing.
Lewisville landscaping →
The county seat, and the namesake of the Denton soil series — clay over limestone, which changes how water moves and how deep roots can go.
Denton landscaping →
Acreage country. Bigger lots, longer runs, and watering rules that make an efficient system worth more here than almost anywhere else nearby.
Argyle landscaping →Standing water, soggy spots, washouts — graded, piped and fixed before the next big rain, not after it.
