The Alterra Difference: Our Process

To ensure a seamless experience, we begin with a walkthrough of your space to assess your needs and preferences. From start to finish, we work closely with you, keeping communication open and involving you at every step. Our team provides a detailed overview of the design plan, outlining all aspects of the project. Then, our plant and construction experts transform those ideas into reality. Discover more about our signature Explore+Design+Build process by visiting our Process page.

We Fully Customize Every Landscaping Project with Our Explore+Design+Build Process

Creativity is the keystone of our landscaping services. Every project is built to highlight your design preferences, expectations for your outdoor space, and plans for outdoor relaxation and entertaining. We use our three-step Explore+Design+Build process to create signature landscapes for every client. At every step of the journey, we strive to bring you joy, unlimited possibilities, and luxurious design.

Explore: Concepts and Ideas

Explore: Collaborative Brainstorming

Our journey begins by getting to know you and your vision. We'll discuss your desires, lifestyle, and dream outdoor space. This collaborative exploration allows us to understand your preferences and tailor the design accordingly.

The Explore phase begins with an on-site visit to your property, where we take the time to get to know you and your wants/needs through an in-depth, interview-style conversation. This step is about more than just the landscape; it’s about understanding your lifestyle, preferences, and how you envision using your outdoor space. We also assess the unique aspects of your home, including soil conditions, sunlight exposure, and any potential challenges, to guide the direction of the project.

During this initial meeting, we’ll review the Design/Build Agreement and discuss the next steps to ensure you feel confident in the process moving forward. Transparent communication is at the forefront of what we do. To dive deeper into your style, we’ll explore your preferences through a Pinterest board, which helps us identify the specific landscaping elements that resonate with you. This visual exploration allows us to uncover something truly special about you, which we’ll incorporate into your landscape design. From there, our design team will create initial sketches inspired by your chosen photos, capturing your vision while seeking your input and approval every step of the way.

Design: Details and Drawings

Design: Bringing Your Vision to Life

With your input in mind, our skilled designers will translate your ideas into a detailed plan. You'll receive blueprints, material samples, and 3D visualizations, allowing you to see your dream landscape come to life before construction even starts.

The Design phase is where your vision starts to take shape through one of our innovative and creative landscaping plans for your property. Our designers will craft detailed drawings, renderings, animations, and virtual models to provide a clear, immersive view of the landscape we plan to create. During a design meeting at your home, we’ll present these concepts, ensuring that your feedback and preferences are fully respected and incorporated into the design.

The complete design package includes all project details—pricing, materials, labor, and any necessary subcontractors. We've built strong partnerships with skilled installation teams who are trusted for their competitive pricing and top-notch workmanship in the Frisco area. Throughout the process, we ensure the design aligns with your budget without compromising quality.

Once you’re ready to move forward, a deposit is required upon signing the proposal. From there, we take care of securing permits and any necessary HOA approvals, making the process as seamless and stress-free as possible for you.

Build: Continuity and Implementation

Build: Flawless Execution & Lasting Beauty

Our experienced construction team will meticulously build your dream space based on the approved design. We use high-quality materials and proven techniques to ensure a stunning and long-lasting landscape. Throughout this stage, clear communication remains a priority, keeping you informed every step of the way.

In the Build phase, the same manager who has guided you through the Explore and Design stages will oversee every aspect of construction for your project, ensuring smooth continuity and seamless execution. Our goal is to bring your landscape to life flawlessly, on time, and with careful coordination. Throughout the build, we conduct daily check-ins to keep you informed of progress, and we invite you to stay actively involved in key decisions, like selecting materials and approving the placement of trees, walkways, or other critical features.

As a professional landscaping company, we prioritize creating a safe, functional, and stunning outdoor space for you and your family to enjoy. We maintain a clean worksite, with daily debris removal, and address any issues promptly to keep the project on track. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we strive to make the build process as smooth and positive as possible.

Our commitment to quality extends beyond the project’s completion. To ensure your landscape remains beautiful and healthy for years to come, we offer lawn care, grounds management, and additional services to keep your outdoor space in pristine condition.

We couldn't be happier with the landscaping project for our backyard done by Alterra Design. Everything went so smoothly from the initial meeting and design to the project execution. The result is just what I envisioned, perhaps even better. Communication throughout the process was excellent, too.
