Our Backyard and Outdoor Living Design Process

Every project follows a clear, deliberate process — so you know exactly what to expect from first conversation to final walkthrough.

1

Describe How You Want to Live Outside

Tell us whether you need space for entertaining, children, gardening, privacy, or all of the above. The more specific you are, the better the design.

2

Read the Backyard

Graham walks the space and maps sun exposure, drainage, grade changes, and views that should be framed or screened before designing anything.

3

Backyard Design Developed

A complete outdoor living plan is created that integrates patios, walkways, plant beds, lawn areas, and any special features into a unified, functional design.

4

Review and Build-Ready Delivery

We review the design together and confirm the plan is ready to hand off to the contractors who will bring it to life.

What makes landscape design in Greenville different from other areas?
Greenville properties sit within Upstate South Carolina's USDA Zone 7b, which means four distinct seasons, clay-heavy soils that require careful drainage planning, and a plant palette that rewards selection based on long-term performance. Graham Kimak Landscape Designs designs specifically for these conditions rather than applying a generic approach.
How long does a Backyard and Outdoor Living Design project take in Greenville?
Design timelines vary by project complexity. A focused front yard or planting plan typically takes two to four weeks from site visit to plan delivery. A full residential landscape design or master plan may take four to eight weeks. We give you a timeline estimate during your initial consultation so there are no surprises.
How much does Backyard and Outdoor Living Design cost in Greenville?
Backyard and Outdoor Living Design fees in the Greenville area typically range from $1,500 to $6,000 depending on property size, complexity, and the scope of the plan. Graham Kimak Landscape Designs provides a clear fee proposal before any work begins so you know exactly what to expect.
Do I need a design plan before hiring a contractor for Backyard and Outdoor Living Design?
A professional design plan is one of the best investments you can make before engaging a contractor. It gives your contractor a clear scope to price accurately, prevents costly changes mid-project, and ensures the finished result looks considered rather than improvised. Graham Kimak Landscape Designs provides contractor-ready plans that make the installation process more efficient for everyone.
