Project consultation

Begin your journey with a personalized consultation. We’ll discuss your vision, explore possibilities, and establish a project budget that aligns with your goals. Our service packages – Bronze, Silver, and Gold – cater to a range of budgets:

Bronze: $25,000 – $35,000
Silver: $35,000 – $75,000
Gold: $75,000 and above

We’ll then provide a preliminary quote, setting the stage for the exciting design development phase.

On-site exploration

We’ll visit your property to experience the space firsthand, ensuring a deep understanding of your vision and the potential of your landscape. This collaborative visit allows us to refine the project scope and solidify your budget.

To demonstrate your commitment and secure our dedicated expertise, a $500 consultation fee is required for this on-site visit. This fee includes:

A personalized proposal tailored to your unique needs
Reserved time for in-depth discussions and exploration

Rest assured, this fee is credited towards your total project cost should you decide to proceed with J&L Hardscapes.

Following the site visit, a $5,000 design deposit initiates the creative process, allowing our team to begin crafting your custom landscape design. This deposit will also be applied as a discount to your final project cost.

Immersive 3D design

Our talented designers will translate your vision into a captivating 3D model, complete with still images and a video walkthrough. This immersive experience allows you to visualize the final result and provide feedback, ensuring a design that perfectly captures your aspirations.

Construction begins

Once the design is finalized, we’ll provide a comprehensive proposal outlining the project scope and final cost, with the $5,500 deposit applied as a discount. With a clear understanding of the investment and a design you love, you’ll be ready to embark on the exciting transformation of your outdoor space.
