Thinking about the different ways you can change your landscape is one thing. Seeing a beautiful 3D rendering of your landscape with new outdoor living elements, colorful garden beds, walkways, and more is a much better way to envision the possibilities for your outdoor areas. The Hardison Landscape design team professionally creates a custom design plan for your home landscape based on our initial consultation and the unique needs of your property in Raleigh, North Carolina. Here is what you can expect from our landscape design services:

  • An in-person design consultation at your home. We listen carefully to your ideas and help flesh out possible solutions to your needs.
  • High-quality 3D renderings of your landscape as it will look when it is completed. The design costs $800-$2500+ based on the scope of your project and is usually completed within two weeks of your design consultation.
  • We’ll email you a link to review your plan and follow-up with you to discuss details further.
  • One round of revisions is included, ensuring your design is perfect.
  • As a full-service landscaping company, we can then move into the installation phase of your project.

Our Process Streamlines Your Landscaping Project

Our time-honored process is designed with honesty in mind. We want to be as clear and understandable as possible throughout the entire landscaping process so you always know what to expect. The following steps will help you get a better picture of what it's like to work with our experienced, professional team.

  • Step 1: Get in Touch

    Call our office for immediate response, or fill out our contact form to schedule a call at your convenience. We'll discuss your project to determine if we're the best fit for you. If so, we'll schedule your on-site consultation to define the scope of work and budget.

  • Step 2: On-Site Consultation

    Before the consultation, we'll send you a questionnaire. Your responses will give us a better understanding of the project so we can arrive prepared. During the consultation, we consider:


    • Your budget for the project
    • Your list of  "Must-Haves"
    • Your "Wish-List" items
    • The Path of the Sun, Soil Conditions
    • Acessibility for Necessary Machinery
    • Viewsheds
    • Elevations & Slopes
    • Drainage Flow Paths
    • And More

    As we discuss your vision for the space, we'll take photos and review your survey to develop a plan and estimated budget. We'll share our ideas, as well, and point out options you might not have considered.


    While on-site, we'll provide a quote for the cost of your landscape or hardscape design. 

  • Step 3: Design Phase

    If you choose to proceed with our design process during the on-site consultation, we'll let you know when to expect your finished landscape design.


    We'll ask that you provide your home's plat survey, showing your property outline, home footprint, and exterior wall measurements. If you're unable to provide a plat survey, a $150 fee for additional measurements is due before we proceed further. These additional measurements take up to 1 hour to complete. 


    Before beginning, 50% of the quoted design cost is required, payable by cash, check, or online via debit/credit. Most designs take about 2 weeks to complete, while complex ones may take up to 4 weeks.


    All design fees will be credited back towards the cost of your installation project, should you decide to move forward with Hardison Landscaping. 

  • Step 4: Design Delivery, Review and Revisions

    When your design is complete, we'll email you a Google Drive link with all your 3D landscape design renderings. 


    The remaining 50% balance for your design is due upon delivery of the first design.


    Included in this email, you'll also see a "highlight list" showcasing key elements of your design, along with an estimated project budget based on the renderings. Please note, this isn’t a formal quote yet—that’s coming soon as the next step in our process!


    We suggest sharing the design images and expected investment with others in your household who are excited about the project. Ensuring all decision-makers are aligned before requesting revisions helps us move forward smoothly.


    One round of revisons is included in the cost of your design. Revisions and updated costs will be completed and sent out to you as soon as possible, typically within 3-5 business days. 

  • Step 4: Installation Quote and Contract Signing

    Once we've recieved approval for both the design and the expected investment, we'll put together a detailed scope of work and contract for installation. This detailed contract will include a payment schedule.


    Hardison Landscaping operates on a "first come, first served" basis for scheduling projects. Once your scheduling deposit is recieved, you will be added to our installation schedule. Our installation schedule changes daily as other client's projects advance from design phase to installation phase. If the timing of your project is important to you, it's important for you to be decisive when the time comes.


    *All design fees are credited back towards the cost of your installation project, should you decide to move forward into the installation process with Hardison Landscaping. 

  • Step 5: Installation Scheduled

    Once we receive your scheduling deposit, your project is officially on the books—get ready for the fun to begin! We’ll share a rough start date window soon after, and as we get closer, we’ll pin down an exact date for you.

  • Step 6: Installation Begins

    Hardison will call in the required North Carolina utility markouts (gas, electric, water, cable, etc.). It's part of our commitment to handling all the details required within our professional landscaping services to make the process simple and enjoyable for you. 


    By the time we arrive at your home, your project manager has already reviewed the meticulous details of your project with our designer and is well-trained and experienced in landscaping, hardscaping, lighting, and drainage. You can contact your project manager any time to discuss progress and ask questions, and your designer remains available to you as a resource, as well.

  • Step 7: Final Walkthrough

    Once your project’s all done, we’ll take a stroll through the property together to make sure everything’s just how you dreamed it would be. We’ll wrap up by collecting the final payment, asking for a google review, and setting up a time for some pro photos to show off your awesome new space to the world! Then, you’ll be ready to kick back and enjoy your beautiful new outdoor living space with family and friends!
