Landscape Design, Installation & Maintenance

Outdoors by Design’s landscaping division is built around the idea that your yard should be a place to gather, relax and make memories. Trusted by homeowners to design and build their outdoor living space, our team creates custom landscapes tailored to your lifestyle. Whether you envision a casual space for family barbecues or a luxurious resort‑style retreat complete with water features, outdoor kitchens and fire pits, our designers will turn your ideas into a detailed plan and shepherd the project from concept through completion.

Landscape Design & Installation Services

The design process begins with an on‑site consultation. Your project manager will listen to your goals, study your property’s topography, sun exposure and views, and develop a plan that maximizes beauty and function. We encourage clients to think about how they want to use their outdoor space: Do you want a play area for children, a vegetable garden, a patio for entertaining? We translate these requirements into a design that complements your home and fits your budget. From comfortable and casual to resort living, Outdoors by Design can build it all.

Once the plan is finalized, skilled crews take over installation. As landscaping contractors with nearly two decades of experience, we coordinates grading, drainage, irrigation, hardscapes and planting. Our integrated approach means you don’t have to juggle multiple subcontractors; one team manages everything from excavation to the finishing touches.

Paver Patios, Walkways & Driveways

Hardscapes are the backbone of any outdoor living space. At Outdoors by Design we specialize in paver patios, walkways, driveways and more. Pavers are selected for their durability and aesthetic appeal, ensuring that your new patio will look beautiful and withstand Idaho’s freeze‑thaw cycles. The design team can create an old‑world cobblestone look or a sleek contemporary pattern to match your home’s architecture. Pavers can also be used for courtyard surfaces, pool decks and accent borders around planting beds. Because they are modular, pavers are easy to repair and replace, making them a smart investment for long‑term value.

Rock & Block Retaining Walls

In the hilly terrain of North Idaho, retaining walls often play a dual role: they create usable space and add a dramatic focal point. Outdoors by Design constructs rock and block retaining walls that level sloped yards, create raised garden beds and control erosion. Our team will help you choose between natural stone, precast blocks or boulders based on the look you want and the structural requirements of the site. Proper engineering ensures that your retaining wall not only looks beautiful but also provides stability and drainage for decades to come. These walls can incorporate steps, seating areas or planters to enhance their functionality.

Lawn Mowing & Landscape Maintenance

After the installation phase, our maintenance division can take over to keep your property looking its best. We offer resort‑quality, full‑service care, including regular lawn mowing, pruning, fertilization and seasonal clean‑ups. The maintenance team’s attention to detail and high‑end care make your home stand out. Regular maintenance not only preserves the beauty of your investment but also prevents costly problems such as weed infestations or irrigation issues. Many clients appreciate having one company handle everything, from the initial design to ongoing upkeep.

Lawn & Sprinkler Installation

A lush, green lawn is the centerpiece of many landscapes. We install lawns using sod, seed or hydroseed, depending on your timeline and budget. Sod provides an instant lawn, while seeding and hydroseeding are economical options that result in thick turf over time. To protect that investment, we can designs and install irrigation systems tailored to your property’s microclimate. Efficient sprinkler heads, smart controllers and drip zones help conserve water while keeping grass and gardens healthy. In a climate where summers are dry and winters are wet, a properly designed irrigation system is essential for long‑term success.
