At Myers Landscape, we design outdoor environments that make a lasting impression. Whether you’re transforming a backyard into a place of retreat or developing a large-scale commercial property, our approach to landscape design is both practical and creative. We focus on clean aesthetics, efficient layouts, and sustainable choices.
From initial concepts to final installation, we manage every aspect in-house. Our work reflects thoughtful planning, detailed execution, and a deep understanding of how spaces are used throughout the year.
What Landscape Design Means for Your Property
Landscape design is more than adding plants and grass. It’s the process of shaping how outdoor space functions and looks. A well-planned design considers sun exposure, water drainage, foot traffic, and long-term maintenance needs. We take these technical elements and apply them to create inviting and useful spaces.
Every project starts with an evaluation of your property. From there, we identify what features best fit your needs—this could be a retaining wall to manage slope, an irrigation system for efficient watering, or paver installations to define walkways and patios.
We bring structure to open space. That’s where value is added.
Our Landscape Design Process
Here’s how we deliver results that last:
1. On-Site Assessment
We begin by walking the property with you. This helps us understand current conditions, layout challenges, and your goals. It’s a practical step that allows us to account for slope, drainage, utility lines, and existing features.
2. Custom Concept Plans
We sketch multiple options to match different layout preferences. These early drafts help clarify what the finished project could look like. They include plant locations, hardscape layouts, lighting zones, and border placements.
3. Material Selection
Our team assists in selecting materials that match your property’s style. Whether it’s stone, mulch, gravel, or edging, the right choices support both function and design.
4. Installation and Coordination
All installation work is handled by our own crews. We manage timelines, coordinate material deliveries, and ensure the build matches your approved layout. You won’t be passed between contractors.
5. Post-Installation Walkthrough
Once work is complete, we go over the site with you to review plant placement, irrigation coverage, and maintenance tips. It’s our way of making sure everything is done right.
Core Elements We Include in Landscape Designs
Each project is unique, but these components are commonly part of our layouts:
Structural Features
- Retaining walls to control elevation and erosion
- Paver systems for driveways, patios, and garden paths
- Borders and edging for clean separation between lawn, mulch, and beds
Plant Material
- Shade trees for cooling effect
- Low-maintenance shrubs and perennials
- Ground covers to reduce soil erosion
- Seasonal plantings for year-round interest
Systems and Lighting
- Irrigation systems that support plant health and save water
- Landscape lighting for safety and nighttime appeal
Maintenance Planning
We always consider how our designs will be cared for over time. For many clients, this leads directly into one of our lawn maintenance plans to keep everything in peak condition.
Residential Landscape Design: Function + Style
For homeowners, the outdoor space is an extension of the living area. We help you shape that space for your lifestyle. Want an area to entertain guests? Looking to add privacy from neighbors? Need a play area for kids?
Our designs meet those needs without overcomplicating things.

Commercial Landscape Design
We also work extensively with business owners and property managers on commercial landscaping.
Common goals include:
- Defining entry points with clear pathways
- Enhancing curb appeal with low-maintenance planting
- Installing lighting for security and visibility
- Building durable gathering spaces with pavers
We understand how to coordinate with other trades and follow site plans, zoning requirements, and seasonal schedules.
