Bringing More Joy to Your Backyard with

Beautiful Pools & Water Features

A backyard pool is the ultimate luxury, a place to unwind with a good book and a cool drink, a place to create memories with family and friends. It's your own year-round resort, where you can take a relaxing weekend—or a five-minute vacation—any time you'd like.

A pool increases the value of your home and your level of enjoyment while you live there. Whether you want to swim laps or sink into a hot tub, our pool design, installation, and maintenance services give you an easy way to bring those dreams to life. Contact us and tell us about your vision for a backyard pool or any other water feature.

Outdoor Life with a Pool

Spending time outside is good for the mind and body. Floating on the water or soaking in the hot tub is an added bonus.

There's nothing more inviting than cool water on a hot summer day. Your pool will become the focal point of your yard, not only because everyone will want to be in it, but because we design your pool to integrate seamlessly with the rest of your home and outdoor space. It's not just about digging a hole and filling it with water: the best pool installation includes gorgeous pool landscaping, patios, pavilions, and more to tie it all together in a way that makes sitting by the pool every bit as enjoyable as swimming in it. This is what makes your pool a year-round feature.

Wondering how you'll find the time to take care of your new pool? We can do that, too. Talk to our pool builders about a maintenance plan to keep your water sparkling and inviting.

A Closer Look at Some of Our Favorite Projects

We treat our clients—and each outdoor space—like the individuals you are. The result is a unique landscaping design that enhances your existing architecture and takes your lifestyle into consideration. Take a look at some of our landscape transformations, each completed with different challenges and under different budgets:

Our Proven 8-Step Process

Working with us is simple. We follow a transparent process so you know exactly what to expect each step of the way, and we stay in communication with you as we go. Don't hesitate to reach out with your questions at any time:

Complete the Questionnaire

In less than 10 minutes, you can answer a few questions (and even upload a few photos, plats, house plans, survey, etc.!) to help us get to know your landscaping challenges, aspirations, and preferences.

Schedule Consultation

It's time for a walk-through of your outdoor space, so we can see it and get more information about what you'd like! Our in-person consultations range from $150-300+ (depending on your location).

Sign the Design Agreement + Down Payment

Within 24 hours of your consultation, we will send you the agreement. These are priced at a flat rate based on your existing site and the complexity of the design, with simple designs starting around $1,500, full site plans for large properties ranging $5-10,000+. Extensive outdoor space projects (our specialty and majority of our projects) are a $5,000 minimum design fee. The Design Phase will begin as soon as we receive your signed agreement and deposit, both of which can be done online.

If your project doesn't need a design, you'll get an estimate within one week of your consultation.

Enter the Design Phase

Design support staff will measure and evaluate the site and will reach out to you to arrange the best time to do this. They pass that information on to our designers, who get to work on your design. For especially large projects, the designer may be in touch throughout the process to see what you think of the concepts. You'll receive the final concept for review before we estimate the cost of the project.

Attend The Presentation Meeting

It's so exciting to see your ideas come to life! You'll have the information you need to envision the completed project, including all the details, plant photos, and more. The Construction Agreement will be created once the design is approved, is customized for your property, and we aim to be as detailed as possible, which allows us to offer an accurate estimate.

Sign the Construction Agreement, Initial Payment

After we've finalized the scope of the work, you can electronically sign an agreement to the terms of payment. 

You'll hear from us to schedule an approximate start date, and we'll send you a detailed production email with the next steps.

We'll Get Started!

We'll coordinate everything—you can simply sit back, relax, and eagerly await the completion of your revamped outdoor space!

We'll touch base with you the week before your start date, and the crew will call you when they're on the way to the site on the first day of work. 

Final Walk-Through

Your satisfaction is our priority, so a foreman or manager will walk through the project with you (if you’re available) before we leave the site. If there are any issues, please give us an opportunity to fix them. We would love you to leave us an online review with your feedback!

Design, Installation, & Maintenance for All Types of Outdoor Spaces

Large or small, your project receives the full attention and commitment of our highly-skilled design, installation, and maintenance teams. We believe in building relationships, so we're always here for you as you get to know your new landscaping. Here's what we have to offer:

  • Design: We take your ideas and put them on paper, giving our installation crew a detailed plan to follow.
  • Installation: Our crew takes those designs and brings them to life—on time and on budget.
  • Maintenance: For spring cleaning or monthly maintenance, we can get you on a schedule that keeps your space looking its best.
  • Pools: We can design and install your pool to create a resort-like vibe in your own backyard.
