Our design-to-install workflow begins with an in-person site visit, where we assess your property's sun exposure, existing soil conditions, drainage patterns, and any structural considerations that will shape the design. We take time to understand how you actually want to use your outdoor space, whether that's a low-maintenance front yard that boosts curb appeal, a backyard built for entertaining, or a full property transformation.
Landscaping Design & Installation
Not every client who comes to us starts out thinking specifically about xeriscaping. Many homeowners simply want a better-looking yard, one that's easier to maintain and more enjoyable to spend time in, and it's through that broader landscaping conversation that many people discover how well a low-water approach fits their goals. Xeriscape Fort Collins offers full-service landscaping design and installation for clients at every stage of that process, whether you're fully committed to a xeriscape or simply exploring what's possible for your property.

From there, we develop a detailed design plan tailored specifically to your property and goals. This includes plant selection suited to your site's specific conditions, hardscape elements like pathways, patios, or retaining walls where needed, and an overall layout that balances aesthetics with practicality. We walk clients through the proposed design before any work begins, making adjustments as needed until the plan reflects what you're actually looking for.
Material sourcing is handled entirely by our team, from selecting the right gravel, boulders, and mulch to sourcing healthy, properly sized plants suited to Fort Collins' growing conditions. We work with reliable local suppliers to ensure the materials used in your landscape are appropriate for the region and built to last.
Grading is often an overlooked but essential part of any landscaping project, particularly on Fort Collins properties near the foothills with sloped or uneven terrain. Proper grading ensures water is directed away from structures and toward planting areas where it can be absorbed effectively, preventing erosion and pooling issues down the line. Our installation crews handle grading with careful attention to your property's specific topography.
Once grading and site preparation are complete, our team moves into planting and hardscape installation, following the approved design plan closely while making real-time adjustments as needed to account for on-site conditions. We take pride in proper installation technique, since even a well-designed landscape can underperform if plants are placed incorrectly or hardscape elements aren't installed to last.
Every project concludes with a final walkthrough, where we review the completed landscape together, answer any questions, and provide guidance on care during the establishment period. Whether your project ultimately leans fully into xeriscape principles or blends traditional landscaping with more water-wise elements, our goal is the same: a finished landscape that reflects your vision and holds up well in Fort Collins' climate for years to come.
