Whether you’re envisioning a full backyard transformation or a curated space designed for low-maintenance luxury, landscaping isn’t just about plants and patios — it’s about creating an environment that elevates how you live.

At Creative Roots Landscaping (CRL), we take care of every detail — from design to build to maintenance — so you can enjoy your landscape without lifting a finger. Picture sipping your morning coffee beside a tranquil basalt fountain, its soft bubbling a gentle start to the day. Or taking a barefoot stroll through your garden as the late-day sun filters through native trees.

From yoga decks and spa corners to garden paths lit in golden twilight, we design spaces that invite calm, connection, and effortless enjoyment. That’s the power of thoughtful landscape design — it turns your home into a private wellness sanctuary.

Let’s break down what that investment looks like.

✍️ 1. The Design Phase – Where Vision Meets Tranquility

Great design isn’t just about layout — it’s how we make sure your space feels intentional, seamless, and built around your lifestyle.

Design packages typically start at $4,800 and range up to $6,000+ for most standard residential lots. Pricing depends on the scope, level of detail, revisions, and whether you choose to include 3D visualizations.

Why Design Matters:

The design phase isn’t just about pretty pictures — it’s about planning with precision. Our detailed designs integrate all landscape elements seamlessly, helping prevent costly mistakes and saving time during construction. We go beyond layout to craft spaces that nurture your lifestyle — from spa zones and soaking nooks to barefoot pathways and serene sitting areas. Every detail is designed to help you reconnect with what matters most: ease, beauty, and your personal sense of calm.  You’ll know what you’re getting before a shovel hits the ground.

What’s Included in CRL’s Design Process:

• Initial meeting & site analysis
• Concept plan (simple 2D layout + preliminary costing)
• Concept development & revisions
• Final 2D plan + optional 3D visuals
• Construction drawings
• Handoff to the build team

We design not just for beauty, but for how your outdoor space makes you feel — calm, connected, at home.

Pro Tip: We highly recommend 3D modelling. It’s the best way to visualize your space, spot any concerns early, and feel confident about your investment.

🏗️ 2. The Build Phase – Bringing Resort Living Home

Installation projects typically range from $150,000–$250,000 for a full yard renovation on a standard residential lot. Prices vary based on materials, custom features, access, and site complexity.

🌿 3. The Maintenance Phase – Luxury That Lasts, Without the Hassle
