Plan Your Outdoor Space Right
Professional Landscape Design Services for Calgary Homes
Landscape design is the planning and visualization phase of your outdoor project. It is not the physical build. Before a single shovel hits the ground, our designers assess your property, measure grade changes, note drainage patterns, and create a scaled plan that accounts for your goals, your budget, and Calgary's climate. This blueprint becomes the guide for every trade that follows. Whether you hire us for full landscaping services or bring your plan to another contractor, a professional design protects your investment and prevents costly surprises during construction.
What Our Landscape Design Process Includes
Every project begins with a thorough site visit and ends with a build-ready plan:
- Site Assessment and Property Measurement
- Design Concept Development
- Material and Plant Selection
- 2D and 3D Visualization Drawings
Our landscape design process covers grading, drainage, sun and shade mapping, and material selection for Calgary properties.

Why Choose All The Moore Landscaping for Landscape Design in Calgary?
We do not hand you a generic sketch and call it a plan. Our team walks your property, talks through how you actually use your yard, and builds a design around those real patterns. Every plan accounts for Calgary's freeze-thaw cycles, drainage slope requirements, and sun exposure throughout the seasons. You get a document you can build from with confidence, whether the project starts next month or next year.
Designs Built Around How You Use Your Yard
Your outdoor space should match how your family lives. We study foot traffic between your door, garden beds, and entertaining areas, then design pathways, seating zones, and planting areas that connect naturally. If you want a fire pit off the patio with a path to the garden shed, we draw it to scale so spacing, grading, and sightlines all work together before construction begins.
Material Guidance for Every Surface
Choosing materials is one of the most important decisions in any landscape project. Our design plans include specific recommendations for stone work and hardscaping, wood decking, pavers, and planting beds. We explain how each material handles Calgary weather, what maintenance it needs, and how it pairs with your home's exterior so you can make informed decisions before spending a dollar on materials.
Designed for Calgary's Four Seasons
A plan that looks good on paper but fails in January is not a good plan. We factor in snow load on structures, ice buildup on walkways, spring melt drainage, and summer sun exposure. Grading is calculated to move water away from foundations. Plant selections are rated for Zone 3 hardiness. Every design decision considers how your yard will perform twelve months a year, not just during the warm season.
From Concept Drawings to Build-Ready Plans
Our design deliverables go beyond a rough sketch. You receive scaled 2D plan views showing exact dimensions, material callouts, and elevation changes. Where helpful, we provide 3D renderings so you can see what finished spaces will actually look like. These plans give contractors clear direction, reduce change orders during construction, and help you phase a large project into manageable stages if your budget requires it.
Connecting Your Design to the Full Build
A landscape design is the starting point for your entire outdoor renovation. Our plans coordinate with custom wood structures like pergolas and decks, hardscape features, and planting layouts so every element fits together. When you are ready to build, the design package gives any contractor a clear roadmap from start to finish.
Clear Timelines and Transparent Pricing
You will know the cost of your landscape design before we start. We quote flat fees based on property size and project scope, with no hidden charges. Most residential designs take two to four weeks from the initial site visit to final plan delivery. We communicate progress throughout and welcome your feedback at every stage so the finished plan reflects your vision.

What does a professional landscape designer do?
A professional landscape designer evaluates your property, measures the space, and creates a scaled plan for your outdoor project. This includes assessing drainage, sun exposure, and soil conditions, then designing layouts for patios, walkways, planting beds, and structures. The finished plan serves as a blueprint that any contractor can follow to build your vision accurately and on budget.
How much does a landscape design plan cost in Calgary?
The cost of a landscape design in Calgary depends on property size and project complexity. Smaller residential plans for a single zone like a backyard patio area start at a lower price point, while full-property designs with front and back yards, multiple hardscape zones, and detailed planting plans cost more. All The Moore Landscaping provides a flat-rate quote after the initial site visit so you know the full cost upfront.
What's included in a professional landscape design?
A professional landscape design includes a scaled site plan with exact measurements, a material and plant schedule, drainage and grading notes, and phasing recommendations. You also receive elevation drawings and, where helpful, 3D renderings that show what the finished project will look like. These documents give you and your contractor everything needed to build with confidence.
Do I need a professional landscape design or can I plan it myself?
You can sketch ideas on your own, but a professional design accounts for grading, drainage, utility locations, and material compatibility that most homeowners overlook. A proper plan prevents expensive mistakes during construction, like water pooling against your foundation or a patio that settles unevenly. The cost of a design is a fraction of what you would spend fixing problems caused by building without one.
How long does the landscape design process take?
Most residential landscape designs take two to four weeks from the initial site visit to final plan delivery. Larger properties or projects with multiple phases may take longer. We schedule a mid-point review so you can provide feedback before we finalize the design, and we keep you updated on progress throughout the process.
