Your residential landscaping package includes complete design services, detailed installation plans, project management, and contractor coordination. We handle permits, irrigation design, hardscape installation, plant selection, and lighting integration.
Loyola’s unique characteristics require specialized expertise. Your property likely features mature trees, sloped terrain, and privacy considerations that demand careful planning. We design around existing features while maximizing your usable outdoor space.
Water-conscious design is essential in California. Our landscapes incorporate smart irrigation systems, drought-tolerant plants, and xeriscaping techniques that maintain beauty while meeting conservation requirements. You’ll have a stunning landscape that’s environmentally responsible and cost-effective to maintain.
Most residential landscaping projects in Loyola take 4-8 weeks from design approval to completion, depending on scope and complexity. We provide guaranteed start and completion dates—rare in our industry.
The timeline includes design development (2-3 weeks), permit acquisition if needed, and installation phases. Larger estates with extensive hardscaping, irrigation, and mature plantings may extend to 10-12 weeks.
We coordinate all aspects to minimize disruption to your daily routine. Our project management ensures work progresses efficiently while maintaining the quality standards your property deserves.
Loyola’s wooded, estate-style setting suits Mediterranean, contemporary, and transitional landscape designs that complement your home’s architecture while respecting the natural environment.
Mediterranean styles work beautifully with drought-tolerant plants, natural stone, and terraced designs that handle slope challenges common in Loyola. Contemporary approaches emphasize clean lines, outdoor living integration, and low-maintenance materials.
We customize every design to your property’s unique characteristics—existing mature trees, privacy requirements, entertaining needs, and maintenance preferences. Your landscape should reflect your personal style while enhancing your property’s natural beauty.
We design every Loyola landscape to exceed California’s water conservation requirements while maintaining lush, beautiful outdoor spaces through smart plant selection and efficient irrigation technology.
Our approach includes drought-tolerant native plants, smart irrigation controllers that adjust watering based on weather conditions, and strategic use of permeable materials that reduce runoff. Xeriscaping techniques can reduce water usage by up to 50% without sacrificing visual impact.
We also incorporate rainwater collection systems and greywater recycling where appropriate. Your landscape will be both environmentally responsible and cost-effective to maintain long-term.
Your design package includes on-site surveying, detailed CAD installation plans, 20+ 3D renderings, animated video walkthrough, plant and materials lists, and three free design revisions.
We start with comprehensive site analysis—measuring dimensions, evaluating soil conditions, assessing drainage, and photographing existing conditions. This data feeds into our 3D modeling software to create accurate, detailed visualizations.
You’ll receive professional installation drawings that contractors use for accurate bidding and construction. These detailed plans minimize errors, ensure competitive pricing, and deliver the exact results shown in your 3D renderings.
We connect you with trusted maintenance professionals from our vetted network, though our primary focus is design and installation rather than ongoing maintenance services.
Our designs prioritize low-maintenance solutions that reduce your long-term care requirements. We select plants suited to your microclimate, install efficient irrigation systems, and use quality materials that age beautifully with minimal intervention.
We also provide detailed maintenance guidelines and seasonal care instructions specific to your landscape. This ensures your investment continues looking its best while minimizing the time and cost of ongoing upkeep.
Residential landscaping investment in Loyola typically ranges from $50,000 to $200,000+ depending on property size, design complexity, and material selections. We provide detailed cost estimates after understanding your specific vision and requirements.
Factors affecting investment include hardscaping extent (patios, walkways, retaining walls), irrigation system complexity, plant material maturity, lighting integration, and special features like outdoor kitchens or water elements.
We offer interest-free financing options and work within established budgets. Our detailed planning process prevents cost overruns, and our 3D visualization ensures you’re investing in exactly what you want before construction begins.
