Not Every Yard Needs a Full Overhaul: On-Site Landscape Design Explained

Let’s be real—not every yard needs to be ripped out and redone. Some just need a boost. A few well-placed plants. Better curb appeal. A little more intention behind what’s already there.

If you’ve got the basics in place—like a patio, a path, or existing hardscape that works—you might not need a full landscape plan. You might just need On-Site Design.

So What Is On-Site Design?

It’s our fast-track service for softscape upgrades. Here’s what you get for $300:

• A plant and materials list tailored to your yard

• A clean, visual PDF palette so you can review and approve everything

• Our expert landscape designer shows up on install day and lays it all out on-site

  
  

No 2D plan. No overthinking. Just the right plants in the right places.We’ll handle the layout. You get to enjoy the results.

This Is for You If...

• Your hardscape is already there (patio, paths, etc.)

• You’ve got open spaces, overgrown areas, or planter beds that just feel...uninspired

• Your irrigation needs help—or a full update (we can replace it!)

• You want lighting but don’t know where to start

• You’re thinking:

  • “It just feels unfinished.”

  • “I don’t know what to plant.”

  • “We want it done, fast!”

This is the most efficient way to get from meh to nailed it without starting over.

What Can We Do with It?

A lot. With On-Site Landscape Design, we can:

• Add privacy with layered hedges or strategic planting

• Create focal points with statement trees or sculptural plants

• Elevate planter beds with texture, contrast, and plant combos that actually work together

• Make the space feel intentional with lighting and clean finish materials

• Boost curb appeal so your home feels more welcoming—and more complete from the street

  
  

You’d be surprised what a well-curated plant list can do when it’s laid out by someone who knows how to make it sing.

On-Site vs Full Plan: What’s the Difference?

Full Landscape Plan	On-Site Design
Full yard overhaul	Refresh using what’s already there
2D plan + moodboard	Plant list + PDF palette
Design fee: $2,000–$4,000	Design fee: $300 + $150/hour layout fee
Plan 3–4 months out	Install in 6 weeks or less

One isn’t better than the other—it just depends on where your yard is at. If you need new hardscape, grading, layout changes? Full plan. If you’ve got the bones and just need it to feel more finished? On-site design, hands down.
