Landscape Design Consultations

Expert Guidance for the Landscape You'll Build Yourself

Not every dream landscape needs a full design and construction team. Sometimes you just need an experienced designer to walk your property, answer your questions, and hand you a clear direction — so every dollar and weekend you invest actually pays off.

The Problem With Guessing

DIY shouldn't mean expensive trial and error

Plants that die their first winter. A patio that pools water toward the house. Hundreds of dollars in the wrong soil amendments. Watering schedules that violate your district's rules. Colorado's Front Range is a beautiful — and unforgiving — place to landscape without local expertise. One conversation with a professional designer can save you seasons of frustration and thousands in do-overs.

Is This You?

A consultation is perfect if…

You're a confident DIYer

You have the tools and the weekends — you just want a professional design eye before you break ground, so you build it right the first time.

You bought a new build

A blank dirt lot is full of possibility — and expensive mistakes. Get a designer's plan for phasing your landscape over time as budget allows.

You want water-wise answers

Thinking about replacing thirsty turf with native and climate-adapted plants? We'll show you what thrives here and how to navigate your water district's programs.

You're not ready for a full project

A full design and construction project may be in your future — a consultation gives you expert direction for what you can do now, and a relationship for later.

Common Questions

Consultation FAQ

How much does a landscape design consultation cost?

Our on-site landscape design consultation is $295 for 90 minutes at your property. Our phone or video consultation is $150 for 60 minutes. Both include one-on-one time with our lead designer and clear, actionable recommendations for your landscape.

What happens after I pay?

You'll receive our online scheduling link so you can choose a consultation time that works for you. On-site consultations take place at your property; phone and video consultations happen wherever you are.

Do you offer consultations outside your installation service area?

Yes. While our design and construction projects serve the Denver metro and Front Range communities, our phone and video consultations are available to homeowners anywhere in Colorado.

Should I prepare anything before my consultation?

For phone and video consultations, send us photos of your landscape ahead of time along with your questions. For on-site visits, just have your ideas and questions ready — a wish list, inspiration photos, and any known problem areas are all helpful.

What if I decide I want Colorado Native Landscapes to do the work?

We'd love to talk. Many consultation clients discover parts of their project they'd rather leave to professionals — from retaining walls to irrigation. Just let us know during your consultation and we'll discuss what a full design and construction project would look like.

Your dream landscape starts with one conversation

Get expert answers, avoid costly mistakes, and create a space to relax and enjoy — on your timeline and your budget.

These are estimates, not a guarantee or appraisal. Value figures reflect national research on landscaping ROI (Virginia Tech: 5.5–12.7% of home value; NAR & Money Magazine: ~100–200% cost recovery). Water savings use Front Range figures (traditional bluegrass ~18–20 gal/sq ft/yr; Denver Water). Actual results vary with design quality, plant maturity, maintenance, your water provider's rates, and local market conditions.
