Our Landscape Design Process

Designing a landscape that you can enjoy and be proud of is a complex and multi-step process.  Landscape design requires a great deal of thought and care to ensure that the end result will meet your needs and preferences. A well-designed landscape not only adds beauty and value to your property but also enhances its functionality and sustainability.

Here are some factors that we need to consider when designing your landscape:

#1.  Lay of the land: The topography of the land, including its slope, elevation, and drainage patterns, can have a significant impact on the design of a landscape. These factors can affect the placement of features such as patios, retaining walls, and water features.

#2.  Size of the area: The size of the area that is being designed will also affect the design. We must consider the amount of available space, and how best to use that space to create a cohesive and functional design.

#3.  Use of plants: Plants are an essential part of any landscape design, and the choice of plants must be carefully considered. We must consider factors such as the local climate, soil type, sun exposure, and plant growth characteristics. We must also consider your preferences and the purpose of the plants, whether they are for shade, privacy, or aesthetic appeal.

#4.  Growth at maturity: When selecting plants as part of your landscape design, we must consider how they will grow and how big they will be at maturity. Your landscape 2,3, or even 5 years down the road will change as your plants grow.  This is an important design detail we need to consider to ensure that the plants do not outgrow their designated spaces or become an obstacle for maintenance in the future.

#5.  Hardscaping: Hardscaping, which includes features such as patios, walkways, and retaining walls, can be an integral part of your landscape design. We must consider the function and aesthetics of these features and how they will fit into the overall design.

#6.  Softscaping:  Softscaping is all of the softer, natural elements of your landscape.  This could include lawn areas, garden beds, landscape beds, hedges, shrubs, and trees.  Do you want a landscape that is low maintenance?  Do you want a landscape that reduces watering requirements? Or how about natural habitat for local wildlife?  These are factors we need to consider with your landscape design.

#7:  Budget:  We know not everyone likes to talk about their budget for their landscaping but this is critical to getting a great design.  We don't want to provide you with ideas and concepts that are outside of your price range.  If we know and understand your budget we can ensure the options we provide are going to stay within your range.  We don't want to design a landscape that you cannot afford to build.

Step #1.  Consultation: We will meet with you on your property to discuss your needs, preferences, and budget.

Step #2.  Site analysis: We will conduct a thorough analysis of the site, including its topography, soil type, drainage, and sun exposure.

Step #3.  Design concept: We will create a preliminary 2D or 3D design concept, including the layout of features and the selection and layout of plants.

Step #4.  Design development: We will refine the design concept, taking into consideration any feedback you have.  We want to make sure you're 100% happy with the design before proceeding.

Step #5.  Final design: We will present you with the final design, including a detailed plant list and hardscape specifications which will include the specific types and styles of materials being used.

Step #6.  Installation: Once the design has been approved by you, we will then schedule and oversee the installation of your new landscape.

My wife & I recently hired Chris of Outside Solution to help us "reset" the backyard of our new home & give us something to build off. It was never maintained by the previous owners, so was a few thousand sq. ft. of dead grass, foxtails & gopher mounds. We contacted Chris for help. He responded quickly and a couple days later came to see the project & talk details. His quote was very competitive. He also provided plans/pictures of what the completed project would look like, made recommendations, gave ideas of his own and was quick to answer any questions. He was also very patient with this new home owner who's still learning where everything is. All of this was before any contract was signed. For the project, he graded the land, installed drip irrigation (set up the timer as well), planted fruit trees, demo'd a random slab we wanted gone, installed DG & a ton of mulch. Chris & crew (when needed) were on time, friendly & respectful. The last day, they stayed late & got it all done earlier than expected. The best part of all this was the little touches that were included that we didn't ask or pay for - running drip lines to existing trees & including root cages for our new fruit trees to keep those damn gophers out. Chris has a great eye for detail. We are extremely happy with the result - we're finally able to enjoy the backyard & will be contacting Outside Solution again for future projects.

Simply Outstanding. The quality of care and pride in his work starts from the moment you meet Chris. He really takes the time to understand what your looking for and provides great recommendations along the way for choices in plants, turf and irrigation systems. He brings his wealth of experience and attention to detail to providing a quality experience that you just don't see anymore. From the moment we met Chris he was responsive to any question, always providing thoughtful feedback. On the day the project was to be done he arrived on time with a crew ready to work and delivery a top notch transformation that met and in fact exceeded our expectations. For us a picture does tell a thousand words as there is just not enough words to say thanks for the fantastic job.

Recently used Chris to install new sod in my back yard and clean up my slope along with laying down river rock near my pool equipment. Very pleased how everything worked out and I would definitely recommend them if you have landscape needs.
