Landscaping and landscape design in Greater Austin.
This work starts with a pro on site, because the conditions there shape the plan and the price.
Five steps
From your photos to the finished job.
The site, drainage, soil, sun, utilities, trees, irrigation, access, and long-term maintenance shape a landscaping plan.
What you want done
Describe the outcome—planting, beds, grading, drainage, irrigation, hardscape support, tree work, cleanup, or redesign—and the property areas involved.
What to note and photograph
Record site photos, sun and shade, drainage after rain, slope, existing plants and trees, irrigation, utilities, gates, access, pets, maintenance goals, and known restrictions.
What the pro checks
A site assessment confirms dimensions, soil and drainage, grades, plant conditions, irrigation, tree and utility boundaries, access, permit triggers, and what can be maintained.
What the written scope covers
Confirm the layout, quantities and plant sizes, soil and drainage work, irrigation, edging and mulch, grading, tree limits, utility locates, permit responsibility, care, and exclusions.
What stays in your project
Continue in Completa with the site plan, plant and material selections, utility and permit notes, approved phases, installation proof, care instructions, and changes.
