See it together with Design Assist.
Deck or outdoor bathing design is $650; full landscape design is $1,250. Both include a site plan, elevations, one revision cycle, a landscape drainage plan, a grading plan when necessary, proposed improvements and eight property-specific scaled renderings developed in design software from 3D scans and drone surveys.
Construction and equipment are priced separately. Straightforward single-deck projects may not need paid Design Assist.
