First Meeting Checklist

I look forward to meeting you. Here’s how to make the most of our first meeting.

Design Package & Cost:

What is it like working with Full Circle for design services? Design materials include a plot plan, a plant list with pictures, a material list with pictures, and an estimate of costs. For some people, it is also helpful to mark out their yard with landscape paint + flags, or take a trip to a local rock yard together. The design package starts at $1000, and increases based on the square footage of your yard and additional trips. After the first meeting, if you want to proceed with a Full Circle design, a $300 deposit is collected to begin designing.

✓Pictures!

We are blessed in zone 9 to be able to grow so many plants! If you are able to come with some pictures of what you like, it will help me quickly get a feel for the type of plants and look you like. Pinterest and Houzz are great places to find inspiring pictures.

✓Budget for Install…

My job as a designer is to make a landscape that does the most with your budget. The same backyard could cost $10,000 or $40,000 to install, depending on what is requested in the design. Please consider what is your ideal budget.

✓Maintenance Plan?

I aim to create landscapes that are beautiful but also low-maintenance. Most of my clients sign up for a once-a-month maintenance visit after the landscape has been installed. Please let me know if you are interested in this convenient option.
