Once we begin, your contract will outline the expected turnaround time—typically between 3–6 weeks for residential designs. After delivering the initial design, most clients take 1–2 weeks to review and submit revisions.

Revision turnaround depends on the scope of the project—simple edits may take just a week, while more extensive changes can take 2–3 weeks. Estimates follow thereafter, and are typically ready within 3–5 weeks depending on the complexity.

As an industry standard, most landscape design projects take around 3 months before installation can begin, depending on:

• How long it takes you to approve budget

• Seasonality - we usually book up for spring and fall season in advance
