### Typical Job Cost

$5,000 - 200,000

Our typical job includes design of a landscape, the plans required to get the design through HOA/City for permitting and then the install of the final product.   We can do any piece or part of the above though, and due to this prices can vary widely depending on what we are hired to do.  We are happy to take on smaller jobs (like a spruce up planting of a small space) if our current workload allows for it, but unfortunately these jobs are not always able to be fit in around our larger installs.

**★★★★★ — Domus Ex Arte, March 2015**

> MDZA is a professional, full service landscape architecture firm. I have collaborated with the firm on a number of projects and find them to be very creative, solution oriented and timely. They are acutely versed in hardscape and softscape design. Of particular note is their ability to understand the client's desires and needs and work within a defined budgetary framework.
