Our Process
At Red Oak, we believe that great landscape design begins with a strong partnership between the designer and the client. Our process, which emphasizes open communication, collaboration, and customization, ensures that the final design reflects your vision and meets your unique needs.​
​
By entrusting Red Oak Landscape Design with your project, you’re not just getting a design – you’re getting a dedicated partner who will guide you through the process of transforming your outdoor space into a landscape that truly reflects your vision. Whether your project is residential or commercial, large or small, we look forward to working with you to create something extraordinary.
Creating a Design and Plan
Initial Consultation
Our process begins with a one-on-one consultation. During this meeting, we take the time to understand your landscaping goals, personal style, and the practical needs of your space. Whether you’re a homeowner wanting to transform your backyard or a property manager looking for an attractive and sustainable design, we tailor our approach to your project.
Site Assessment
We conduct a thorough site assessment to understand the unique characteristics of your property. We consider various factors such as topography, soil type, existing vegetation, sun exposure, and other environmental conditions. This information is crucial in crafting a design that’s not only beautiful but also sustainable and practical.
Concept Development
After gaining a thorough understanding of your project’s needs and constraints, we create preliminary design concepts. These initial ideas are then refined through an iterative process based on your feedback until a final design is agreed upon.
Master Planning
The final design is transformed into a comprehensive master plan that includes detailed planting plans, illustrative renderings, and other necessary specifications. This master plan serves as a roadmap for you or your chosen contractor to execute the landscape design.
Project Guidance
Even after the design process, we remain a partner in your landscaping journey. We provide ongoing guidance to ensure the design is accurately implemented. We’re also available to answer questions, address concerns, and provide further recommendations.
