My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

BIG LITTLE GARDENS
Patio Designers in Raleigh
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 22, 2025
“We have a rooftop garden we have been planning to landscape for the past 8 years. Nathan came with some great ideas and was attentive to our wishes for specific plants and planting containers. He really made it happen. The final product has turned that barren area into a place where we want to spend more of our time. The plant selections were ideal for the location and have performed well over the summer. Nathan also installed a drip irrigation line to make our maintenance easier. We really appreciate your design eye and vision. Thank you!”

“We love the yard that Laura created for us! We knew that we wanted something low maintenance but beautiful, and that we would love to have a tree or two – but other than that, we really didn’t even know what we wanted. Laura asked many questions to learn about our preferences, and it was clear that she took our feedback into consideration in her design. She sent us some short lists of plants that she was recommending, and she encouraged us to be honest if there were any that we didn’t like. It was a fun process, and Laura was very easy to work with. We love how everything turned out, and we’re looking forward to seeing how things change in the different seasons, and watching our little trees grow up. We also love the new stone walkways that replaced our muddy, weedy paths. And the drip irrigation system that she installed has been wonderfully convenient, and really has made everything super low maintenance so far. Laura, thank you for creating a yard that we will enjoy for a very long time!”

“Wendi and her team are incredible to work with - they have an incredible eye for design, unmatched knowledge, and a very personal touch. They transformed our neglected backyard into a private paradise, and turned our front yard into a scenic landscape that finally does justice to our house. More than anything, they really care about their work. I have had so many outdoor professionals come through our property, and none of them pointed out some of the issues or problems that we might face with our landscaping layouts. We saved a ton of money in avoiding future disasters! Lastly, it is always great to know that your money is going to support a good social causes. I love the mission of the organization, and the entire team could not have been more nice or professional. They were a pleasure to work with, and we look forward to continuing to use their services.”

Landscape Architect or Designer FAQs
The duration of a patio design project can vary widely depending on the scale and complexity of the project, weather conditions, and the availability of materials and labor. Smaller projects might take a few weeks, while larger, more intricate designs can take several months. A reputable patio designer will provide you with a projected timeline upfront and keep you informed of any changes.
Patio designers stay abreast of the latest materials and design trends through continual education, industry publications, and networking. They consider factors such as durability, maintenance, local climate, and your personal style to recommend the best materials for your project. Sustainability, outdoor living, and seamless indoor-outdoor transitions are currently popular trends in patio design.
Before meeting with a patio designer, homeowners should gather inspiration photos, establish a budget, and consider how they intend to use the space (e.g., entertaining, relaxation, dining). Itʼs also helpful to identify any specific features you desire, like a fire pit or outdoor kitchen. Clear communication of your needs and preferences helps ensure the success of your project.
Patio designers are skilled in navigating challenges such as spatial constraints, zoning restrictions, and budget limitations. They leverage creative solutions and strategic planning to overcome obstacles, ensuring the project stays on track. Open communication between the homeowner and designer is critical for addressing issues promptly as they arise.
Outdoor lighting not only enhances the ambiance of a patio but also ensures safety and functionality after dark. Designers recommend incorporating a mix of task, ambient, and accent lighting. Solar-powered and LED lights are popular for their efficiency and sustainability. Proper placement and consideration of light intensity are crucial to avoid glare and create a welcoming atmosphere.
Sustainability in patio design is achieved through the selection of eco-friendly materials, native plants that require less water, and the incorporation of green technologies like rainwater harvesting systems. Designers also consider the orientation of the patio to maximize natural light and warmth while minimizing exposure to harsh elements. This approach not only benefits the environment but can also lead to long-term cost savings for homeowners.
