Process

Our Landscape Design Process is a Collaborative Journey

At McDonald Landscapes, we specialize in creating custom outdoor designs that reflect your lifestyle and enhance your property. Whether you’re envisioning a peaceful garden retreat or a vibrant space for entertaining, our experienced design team is here to bring your ideas to life.

With over 80 years of industry expertise, we’ve built a trusted reputation for thoughtful, client-focused landscaping. Our process is collaborative from start to finish, ensuring your space is both beautiful and functional. Here’s how we do it:

Initial Consultation

We begin with a complimentary consultation to discuss your goals, preferences, and vision. Our designer will meet with you on-site to understand how you want to use your space.

On-Site Assessment & measurements:

We carefully evaluate your property, considering layout, grading, drainage, and existing features, to inform a design that fits both your needs and the site conditions.

Custom Design Development

Our experienced designers craft a detailed plan featuring layout concepts, plant selections, and hardscape elements to bring your vision to life.

Design Collaboration & Revisions

We work closely with you throughout the process, refining the plan to ensure every detail reflects your style, functionality goals, and budget.

Final Design Package Delivery

You’ll receive a comprehensive design package with scaled drawings, specifications, and material recommendations, ready for seamless installation by our experienced team.
