    Featured Reviews for Garden Designers in Houston

    Nature's Realm
    Garden Designers in Houston
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 4, 2013
    “We called Kevin, of Natures Realm, to design our small backyard in Houston Heights. We wanted a small cocktail pool but we also wanted the yard to be lush with landscaping. We knew it was a tall order for such a small space, but Kevin delivered. Our backyard is now beyond what we could have ever envisioned on our own. Kevin is hands-on all the way and helps and directs you to the proper plants, lighting and accessories. We recently had a large party and the common topic of conversation seemed to be how beautiful our backyard is. Kevin is truly passionate about his craft and considers his projects to be his "babies". He is up front about pricing and takes pride in giving fair and accurate estimates. If you want run-of-the-mill landscaping that looks like every other house on your block, this guy is not for you. If, however, you dream of the true "wow" factor, you won't be disappointed in Kevin.”

    “Thank you so much for all the hard work you guys put into my front yard! These guys were amazing to work with. I appreciate all the brilliant ideas and the amazing communication throughout the whole project. Jesus and Jay really listened to all the things we wanted and exceeded our expectations when they gave us our 3D design which gave us a great idea of how our project would look like (that was our favorite part! ) We love coming home to a beautiful front yard! Even at night thanks to the landscape lights y'all installed. I'm so happy with everything!! I definitely recommend Agave Outdoor Designs to everyone!”

    “I hired this company for my patio project. After asking around friends and colleagues it was referred to me as a hassle free contractor. They were actually very friendly and got the initial quote pretty quickly with enough visuals so that I could envision what was about to come out. What I liked about them the most is the fact that they made me feel like they really cared about my place. That was unique and in my experience that is something hard to find in Houston area as I worked with multiple contractors in my new home. Anyways, being kind of a fresh company, I had my second thoughts in the beginning but the end product definitely exceeded my expectations. Recommended indeed!”
    Exterior Worlds Landscaping & Design
    Garden Designers in Houston
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 2, 2013
    “Exterior Worlds truly lived up to its name. They upgraded my yard to a veritable outdoor home. The patios, gardens, and outdoor kitchen they built for me work like outdoor rooms that are every bit as comfortable as those inside our home. Our swimming pool looks not only brand new, but like a true reflection of our house. Our yard looks more fully defined, enlarged, and truly connected to our house for the first time ever.”

    “We hired HJT to design a total landscape and hardscape plan for our backyard in Tanglewood/Briargrove and are thrilled with the outcome. Heath's ideas and knowledge of what would work in our space were great and he was timely and available. We absolutely recommend Heath and HJT.”

    “Stephen is a very skilled landscape designer. We wanted an easy-to-manage garden of native plants and a firepit area. Stephen went above and beyond our expectations. He was very reliable and communicative during the whole process. His prices are very reasonable, and he will work with you to design something you'll really love for years to come.”
    Ravenscourt Landscaping and Design LLC
    Garden Designers in Houston
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 3, 2012
    “Do you remember Mrs. Haversham's home from Great Expectations? That's kind of the look we had going when Ravenscourt met with us. Overgrown, ugly bushes, construction debris from our recent remodel - our yards, both front and back, were a mess. A TOTAL MESS. Each landscaper we met with told us they had their work cut out for them. Laurin and Shawn didn't even flinch. They were not only impressively prepared with ideas and sketches when we initially met, they were also very reassuring about our chances to have more curb appeal and a serene backyard to relax in. After we first met, they created a gorgeous design - one that took into account all the things we wanted from our spaces - and a thorough budget that included explanations for each category or item. Total pros - these two. We hired them immediately. I can tell you now that we have been able to enjoy our yards for over a month that we're so glad we did. Our front yard is now beautiful and inviting. The back is like being on a vacation. Each space reflects our style, personality and the beauty of our remodeled home. We have a place to plant veggies, pretty trees to look at from the inside of our home, and best of all - no more overgrown bushes! Do yourself a favor and get these two to make your yard awesome.”

    “Of all the remodeling projects and repairs I've done, this was by far the smoothest and least stressful. My husband and I both work long hours, have two year old twins and had a budget we needed to stick to. Scott accommodated to our schedule for design meetings and once the project started checked in daily to discuss every detail. Scott and the crew went above and beyond to make sure the quality of the work not only met our expectations, but gave us what we really wanted. We realized early on that our budget would not allow for all our wants, and we focused on a "first phase" but they truly outdid themselves. There was not a single moment in the project where I felt frustrated or worried, in addition to being completely happy with the outcome. We could not recommend Scott and his crew more. The four photos are two before and two after to show transformation. The pool was re-done just before yard work began.”

    “Professional, creative, thorough and honest. I can't recommend them enough from the initial consultation to the design and build to the follow through. If you want the best, they are the way to go!”

    Landscape Architect or Designer FAQs
    The duration varies based on the projectʼs complexity and size. A small to medium-sized garden might take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months, from initial consultation to completed installation. Larger projects, especially those requiring significant structural changes, could take several months. A detailed timeline should be discussed with your garden designer early in the process.
    Garden Designers select materials based on the siteʼs conditions, the projectʼs budget, and aesthetic goals. They consider the sustainability, durability, and maintenance requirements of materials. Staying informed about the latest trends through professional development courses, industry publications, and networking with peers ensures that designers can offer contemporary and innovative designs that still meet the timeless principles of garden design.
    Homeowners should identify their needs, preferences, and budgets before consulting with a garden designer. Collecting inspirational images or creating a mood board can help convey your vision. Additionally, understanding your gardenʼs conditions, such as soil type and sun exposure, and having an idea of desired plants or features, prepares you for a more productive initial consultation.
    Common challenges, like poor soil, limited space, or awkward layouts, are addressed through innovative solutions. Designers might amend the soil, introduce raised beds for better drainage, utilize vertical planting for small spaces, or create focal points to distract from less appealing areas. Their expertise allows for creative problem-solving that blends functionality with beauty.
    Yes, Garden Designers often implement sustainability practices such as selecting native plants that require less water and are more resistant to pests, implementing rainwater harvesting systems, using permeable paving materials to improve water absorption, and employing organic gardening practices. These approaches contribute to creating environmentally responsible gardens that are both beautiful and sustainable.
    Garden Designers can certainly work with existing landscapes to enhance or completely transform them. This can involve redefining spaces, introducing new plant species, and incorporating new features while retaining elements that work well. Working with an existing garden often requires a keen eye for potential and creativity to integrate the new with the old seamlessly.
