You can have an hour of our time to consult with you on any aspects of your landscape while standing right in your yard. After discussing the ideas you have and any ideas we've come up with together you can decide if you'd like to see an estimate for any or all of the items we've talked about. Within a week we'll send you an easy to read and itemized estimate of the project for your review. We can change or amend the estimate at any point in time and when you're ready to move into construction we send you a construction contract that reflects the work to be completed on the estimate. Easy as that!
A well designed landscape provides fantastic visual experiences and lasting memories. Using the strengths of your existing landscape, we then apply sound design principals to develop unique and functional spaces that will extend your usable living space and increase your property value. We start the process with a site consultation where we collect all of the elements you wish for your property. We take this information and within two to three weeks develop a professional and easy to read landscape plan for your review. The design will include all hardscape essentials and a creative planting design. We can include irrigation and lighting design along with construction notes if you are a do-it-yourselfer. We also provide artistic accessories (such as fabrics, pillows, furniture, statues, etc.) to unify the experience of your outdoor living space!
Water in Colorado is a precious resource. We understand the importance of conserving water, therefore design with water efficient irrigation systems. Utilizing a special soil preparation process is also important along with understanding plant selection and placement.
The topography or slope of your property is also important when designing irrigation. Good drainage will keep your outdoor space free of puddles, plant diseases, rotting, and shifting. This is an integral component of the overall health of your landscape.
Outdoor lighting has two important functions — creating drama and providing safety... it can be functional or aesthetical. We suggest a mix of lighting to highlight favorite trees and shrubs while safely defining pathways and steps. Combining these two types of lighting will visually reduce the scale of the landscape making it feel as if you are entering an outdoor room. It is a mistake to believe brighter is better. Too many lights can make your house stand out like a runway. A professional lighting installation is important. We will take into consideration the views out of your windows along with energy efficiency when helping you choose the right outdoor lighting for your space!
People of all ages, abilities and backgrounds are drawn to the sound and sight of moving water. Water features in the landscape define an atmosphere, add curb appeal and create a wildlife habitat! There are many different types of features from small pondless boulder bubblers that require less maintenance to full on babbling brooks, koi ponds and stunning waterfalls that can create exceptional ambiance. Water features are also known to be therapeutic, creating a relaxing sight and sounds that positively affect your emotions and improve your sense of well-being.
Whether it's a sweeping flagstone garden-walkway or functional, low-maintenance composite deck, patios and walkways can define beauty, elegance and durability. Patios and decks can convert your otherwise unusable space to stunning outdoor entertaining areas and pathways can make far off places on your property become easily accessible yet still secluded sitting areas. With so many choices in materials there is sure to be a product that will fit any budget!
An outdoor kitchen makes it easy to enjoy a complete indoor experience in your own backyard. There are a variety of powerful, professional appliances to keep the party going. Whether you'd just like to build in your existing grill to a functional counter top or have the ability to rinse vegetables and mix drinks, there is no end to what an outdoor kitchen can do.
Why retreat to the warmth of the indoors once the weather turns chilly when you can warm up on your deck or patio with the many styles of attractive outdoor fireplaces and fire pits? Whether you're looking for a portable wood burning fire pit or gas stone fireplace we can take the atmosphere of your outdoor living space to a whole new level.
There are many different types of specialty gardens to choose from depending on your desires. From Healing gardens that can, at the same time, nourish your skin and sooth your soul... to Spiritual gardens that are a sanctuary free from the stresses of the outside world that can give you peace and serenity and even a certain degree of mental healing. Many of us that work a typical job feel that we never get to enjoy our gardens since many of the flowers blooming have closed their petals by the time we arrive home from a day at work. Moon gardens are a fascinating way to enjoy your outdoor space in the evening. They are designed with plants that can be seen, or bloom, at dusk! Moon gardens are filled with fragrant and very light/white shades of flowers and foliage that look luminous in moonlight. Please contact us for more information or ideas on specialty gardens.
Annual pots are like fireworks. Designed to give you a punch of vibrant color you can enjoy, changing seasonally keeping everything fresh and vibrant! The type of pots chosen is important to help pull the overall theme of your garden through or maybe just important to choose the right accent color to play off the style or color of your home. Culinary herbs or edible plants can be included to enhance the functionality of the arrangements. Unlike all the other plantings in your landscape, pot arrangements can be moved easily and redesigned in just a few minutes!
Do you feel like you don't have time to spend caring for your garden? Frustrated with your landscaper mistakenly mowing through your perennial bed? We know plants and can help you redefine your outdoor living spaces! We can provide maintenance, plant suggestions, seasonal clean-up on a one-time basis or throughout the season.
Whether you're looking for fencing, a custom pergola, arbor or unique garden gates... these structures give you a great sense of seclusion, privacy and most of all, shade. Each piece contains its own combination of style and comfort. Painting, staining or sealing is available. These outdoor additions turn simple backyards into marvelous outdoor rooms!
Natural stone can add an immense amount of interest, impact and character to your landscape. These elements are inanimate and never need to be watered, weeded or cared for. Yet, they can still provide a wonderful sense of permanence and compliment to the shrubs and trees that surround them.
Like the final coat of paint on a wall, sod, gravels and mulches add a polished look to a garden. Each discourages weed growth and helps maintain the moisture levels of your landscape.
