Do You Need a Landscape or Hardscape Plan?
A clear plan saves money before anyone digs: it fixes where the patio, pool, walls and plants go, how water drains away from the house, and what your HOA or permit office needs to approve.
Pools, retaining walls, pergolas, outdoor kitchens and large patios often need drawings for permit – and some need structural or drainage engineering too. We tell you exactly what applies to your project.
You Most Likely Need a Plan If You Are:
- Adding a pool, spa or pool deck
- Building a patio, pergola or outdoor kitchen
- Submitting a design to your HOA
- Building garden or retaining walls
- Fixing poor drainage in your yard
- Designing a commercial or multifamily landscape

Your Questions About Landscape Plans, Answered
Do I need a permit for my backyard project?
Pools, retaining walls over a set height, pergolas, outdoor kitchens with gas or power, and large paved areas often need permits. Rules vary by city, so we check your address.
Can you design for my HOA?
Yes. We prepare plans in the format HOA design committees expect, with materials, colors and plant lists.
Do you work from photos and a survey?
A survey or plat plus photos and a few measurements is usually enough to start.
Can you show me what it will look like?
Yes – we can add 3D views and renders so you can see the space before you build.
Are landscape architects required?
Some states and project types require a licensed landscape architect to seal drawings. Where required, we coordinate one.
How much does a landscape plan cost?
It depends on the size of the area and what is included. Send photos and your address for a fixed price in 5-10 minutes.
