Front yard transformations
A new front yard is the single fastest way to upgrade how a home shows. Updated beds, fresh plantings, clean mulch lines, refreshed edging, walkway accents, and a tidied or replaced lawn reset the entire street view. Most front-yard makeovers are completed in under a week and add measurable curb appeal value at resale.
Backyard makeovers built around how you actually use the yard
Backyards become the everyday outdoor living space — planting beds, irrigation, walkways, structured landscape areas, fire pits, pergolas, and lighting built around how the family actually uses the yard. The starting question is always the same: "What do you wish you could do back here that you can't right now?"
Typical yard makeover pricing in Harris County
Front-yard makeovers (demo old beds, replant, mulch, edging, light hardscape, refresh sod) typically run $5,000–$15,000. Full property makeovers (front + back, hardscape, irrigation, lighting, sod) range $20,000–$60,000+. We start with a walkthrough and flat itemized bid — no "and it could go higher."
What a yard makeover process looks like
Walkthrough → concept and itemized bid → contract and deposit → demo (1–2 days) → hardscape and edging (1–3 days) → irrigation tie-ins (1 day) → plant install (1–2 days) → sod and mulch (1 day) → final cleanup and homeowner walkthrough. Most front-yard makeovers wrap in 5–7 working days; full property makeovers run 2–4 weeks.
Common Harris County yard makeover scenarios
1980s–2000s Houston home where the original landscape has aged out and shrubs have outgrown their beds. Newer Katy or Cypress build with the bare-minimum builder install that needs to actually feel like a finished yard. Pre-listing makeover where curb appeal will move the price. Post-freeze (Feb 2021) replant where half the original landscape never came back. We handle all four.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a yard makeover cost in Harris County?+
Front-yard makeovers typically run $5,000–$15,000. Full property makeovers range $20,000–$60,000+ depending on hardscape, irrigation, and lot size.
How long does a yard makeover take?+
Most front-yard makeovers wrap in 5–7 working days. Full property makeovers with hardscape, irrigation, and sod run 2–4 weeks.
Will a yard makeover increase my home's value?+
Curb appeal is one of the highest-ROI exterior improvements at resale — a finished, well-maintained front yard typically returns 100%+ of its cost when selling, and listings with strong curb appeal photos draw more showings.
Should I do the makeover before listing my house?+
Yes — if the front yard is dated or tired, a makeover before listing photos almost always pays back. Plan for at least 2–3 weeks between install and photo day so plants settle and mulch looks fresh.
Can you keep my existing trees and big shrubs?+
Yes — mature trees and healthy specimens are usually the best part of an older property and worth designing around. We protect them during demo and feature them in the new design.
Do you handle fire pits, pergolas, and outdoor kitchens?+
Yes — hardscape and outdoor living features are part of most full backyard makeovers. We coordinate with licensed gas, electrical, and patio cover trades when needed.
Will my old irrigation work after the makeover?+
Often yes with adjustments — we move heads, cap unused zones, and add drip where new beds need it. Older systems sometimes need partial replacement, which we'll quote up front.
Do you offer free makeover estimates?+
Yes — free, no-obligation walkthroughs and itemized bids across Harris County.
