Landscape Design
Not sure where to start? Have the idea but need the plan? Or simply have a blank slate that you are looking to see what possibly could be done. No matter the occasion or need, we have a design team that can bring your dream to reality. We offer industry leading landscape software and design capabilities that not only demonstrate visual 2-D layouts but a full 3-D concept that will give you the possibility to "walk through" your future landscape.
Our landscape design process focuses on a sustainable customer focused approach. Our focus is more than just a picture or graphic, we focus on all elements including sustainability, functionality, building and safety code, as well as budget. We offer many types of landscape designs based upon the project requirements. Design elements we use include:
CAD
2-D Over lays
3-D Graphical Modeling
Virtual Reality (coming soon)
A design isn't just to provide a "pretty" representation of what's to become but can be a critical tool in creating your perfect space. Our designs focus on accuracy which will not only result in a superior outcome but also stay on budget and time.

Landscape Design Consultation
From idea to finished outdoor living space, let the design team at Blake Miller Lawn and Landscape help you from start to finish. Reach out to us; we would love to get the process started.
Let's get started! Click this link, Landscape Design Questionnaire , to fill out our landscape design form that can help you see your vision even better. The more information have about what you like and are thinking, the better our design we present to you will be. Having any information about your property such as a property plot and knowledge of underground utilities, will greatly help the process speed along.
In our first meeting, we will discuss what you want to do with your outdoor space. Large or small, having a great plan can save a lot of headaches and get the client exactly what they had in mind.
All of our initial consultation services are FREE! We want to help share our knowledge with you and help you with the direction of the vision for your property.
At this time we will give you an idea of what design costs may be associated with your project. We will also take measurements and request a copy of a property survey map/ plot plan (you received this with your closing documents). Based upon the size and scope of the project we will set a tentative timeline for the next phase(s) of your project. We may leave you with a little "homework" to complete such as visiting manufacturers websites or critically thinking about some of the options we came up with.
Landscape Design Creation
After meeting with you about your project, our design team will get to work putting together the landscape of your dreams.
We use a number of tools to create the best method to paint the picture of your 'dreamscape'. Depending on the size of your job, this may allow us to virtually "walk through" your finished landscape. In addition, we also use picture imaging programs that allow us to create quick before and after images of your home. Lastly, if needed, we will create a CAD blueprint for a construction overview with exact dimensions for seamless installation. These designs will help us to give you spatial awareness and finished expectations without any surprises.
Depending on the size, this may take one more meetings to perfect the final vision. After all, we are designing and building this for you and your property exclusively. All of our designs are done with the latest landscape design software so we can quickly make changes while we are meeting.
Our experience over the years allows us to create a design that works with elevations and other unforeseen areas that ensures the design can be built to stand up to our tough weather and can be usable/appreciated throughout the seasons. During this time our team also ensures all building codes are met and any engineered drawings are obtained from our partners.
Landscape Design Implementation
Once we have a final design in place it's time to let the dream become a reality.
We will draw up a contract and systematic plan with a very detailed scope of work including all of the aspects of your project to be constructed and installed.
With the final budget set, we will set up a payment schedule that works for both parties. This allows us to buy materials and for you to feel comfortable seeing progress and spreading out the cost over the duration of the project installation. We also have financing plans available to ease the stress on the pocket.
Once all the details are set, we will provide you with a tentative start date and construction schedule that will include how long we expect the project to last. Once we've begun, we stay until the job is finished, not leaving in the midst of construction to work on others projects.
Finally, before we break ground, any permits needed will be obtained and utilities will be marked.
Now, let's get to work!
