FAQ
What happens during the garden design process?
Our Garden design process begins with an on-site consultation to understand what your needs and goals are, as well as evaluate your outdoor space. Next, we develop a client-centered landscape design plan that reflects your lifestyle, goals, and fits the layout of your land. Once the design is finalized and approved by you, our team will manage the installation, from hardscape construction to planting. We ensure that every detail is handled with care, giving you a landscape that is functional and beautiful.
Do I need to have a full design plan for my garden design project?
You don’t always have to have an extensive garden design plan for CD & Co. to help you achieve a small improvement. But for larger projects, a landscape design plan maps out all the details and features for your property. This comprehensive plan allows the project to be executed in phases, and once complete, all the pieces fit together perfectly. During the design consultation, we can determine what level of planning you will need.
How long does the garden design process take?
Timelines vary depending on the scope of the project, but most design projects take up to a couple of months to complete – from the initial meeting through design and pricing. Once there is a signed installation contract, the start date is based on our company schedule that represents multiple projects. Typically, it can be a 4–6 week wait for installation to start. During your consultation, we will give you a better idea of what you can expect based on your project needs so that you can plan ahead.
Will I be involved during the design process?
Yes, we want to know what you want and what you like. We value communication and collaboration. We take the time to understand your goals, preferences, and what is important to you. You will weigh in on design ideas, and your feedback will impact the final plan. The final result is uniquely yours, and feels like “home”.
What will happen once the installation is completed?
Once your project is completed, it starts to grow and develop. If desired, we can provide garden maintenance services to help guide the garden’s growth and to support the health of your garden long term. A garden is not static, so working with you as the garden owner to maximize the benefits of the garden is our collaborative goal.
Let’s create a garden that feels like home.
