Lexington, KY Pool Design

In the Comfort of Your Home

Create a Resort Lifestyle

Your pool is the focal point of your outdoor space, but that's not because of the water itself—it's because of the thoughtful details in the lounge area, landscaping, lighting, and more. Pool design goes beyond digging a hole and filling it with water. It creates an environment that allows you relax, play, and create memories with the people you love. Isn't that why you're installing a pool in the first place?

At Inside Out Landscape Design, you'll collaborate with Kentucky's only APLD-certified landscape designer on a pool design that incorporates your favorite outdoor features, like a patio or pool deck, lush greenery, built-in seating, pergolas, and more, with your existing architecture. You'll choose from a variety of fiberglass pools, and we'll design your space to ensure it becomes a seamless part of your home. 

Our team has years of experience in Lexington, Kentucky, and the surrounding area, and we specialize in sustainable solutions with a local flair, responsive communication, and personalized attention. Work with us to create a one-of-a-kind outdoor space that enriches your life, supports the environment, and stands the test of time. Fill out our contact form today to get started.

Take a look at some of our landscape transformations, each completed with different challenges and under different budgets:

First-Class Service to Ensure Your Satisfaction

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!
