Create a Landscape That Reflects Your Vision and Lasts for Years
Every property holds potential waiting to be revealed through the right design. Whether your property has drainage issues, uneven grades, or areas that don’t quite flow together, professional landscape design can solve those problems before they lead to unnecessary expenses. United Landscape provides thoughtful planning and expert execution for Lexington, Kentucky homeowners who want their landscape to thrive long term.
Your designer starts by learning how you use your property and what you want most from it, whether that means a shaded dining area, room for kids to play, or a better view from your home. Once the design is complete, United Landscape’s team of horticulture, construction, and landscape architecture professionals carries it forward, turning your plan into a cohesive, buildable landscape that fits your goals and your property.
When you partner with United Landscape, you’re choosing precision, creativity, and honesty at every step. You’ll always know what to expect, how long it will take, and what it will cost—so you can move forward confidently.

Design Proposal
Your proposal includes a clear scope of work, design fees, and a preview of your vision—complete with concept sketches or photos of similar projects. Design fees typically range from 5–10% of your total budget. However, 50 to 100 percent of those fees can be credited toward your build, based on project size.

Design Phase
Within a week of signing, your designer begins measurements and develops a scaled 2D or 3D plan. You’ll meet to review layouts and refine details like lighting, irrigation, plantings, and materials. After up to two revisions, you’ll receive your final design package with a fixed-price estimate and clear construction plan.
