Landscape Design in Loveland, CO

Brooks Landscape has been designing and installing landscape design for homeowners in Loveland since 2006. Loveland's established neighborhoods and growing west side both call for landscape work that holds up through Colorado's swing from dry summer heat to heavy spring snowpack. Our crews know Larimer County's soil conditions, drainage patterns, and local permit requirements — and we build every project to last through Northern Colorado's freeze-thaw cycles.

What's Included

  • Site discovery and drainage evaluation
  • Detailed planting plans with mature sizes shown
  • Hardscape integration for patios, paths, and walls
  • Water-wise design with xeric and native options
  • 4-phase Design-Build process

How We Work

A landscape design is the difference between a yard that works and a yard that doesn't. It accounts for how you actually use your outdoor space, how water moves across your property, what survives in Northern Colorado soils, and what your home's architecture supports.

Brooks Landscape has been designing custom residential landscapes across the Front Range since 2006. Because we also build what we design, the plans we hand you are buildable, on-budget, and grounded in two decades of actual construction experience in this climate.

Our four-step process covers everything: Site Discovery, Concept & Design, Planning & Prep, and Build & Maintain. We walk your property first, evaluate drainage and soil, talk through how you want to use the space, and then produce a detailed plan showing planting beds, hardscape elements, and irrigation zones.

Every design we produce is tailored to your property—not a template adapted to your address. We're committed to the right plant in the right place, which means evaluating sun exposure, water access, freeze-thaw exposure, and mature sizes before we recommend anything.

Local Water & Permit Context

Loveland is served by the City of Loveland Water and Power for most residential areas, with some properties on East Larimer County Water District. We verify your water source and pressure before finalizing irrigation design—important in a city with a growing smart irrigation adoption rate.

Loveland's Building and Development Services issues permits for decks, retaining walls over 30 inches, and other structural landscape elements. We handle the permit coordination for any work that requires it in Loveland.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you charge separately for design work?
Design fees are typically rolled into the construction proposal when you move forward with Brooks for the build. For larger or more complex projects, we sometimes quote design separately. We'll be clear about this at the first meeting.
How long does the design process take?
A typical residential landscape design takes 2 to 4 weeks from initial site visit to final plan, depending on complexity. Larger or phased projects may run longer.
Can you work with our existing landscape?
Yes. Most of our projects involve integrating new design into an existing yard. We design around mature trees, established beds, and existing irrigation wherever possible.
Can we phase the project over multiple years?
Yes, and we frequently do. Many homeowners design the full property up front and build it in phases as budget allows. The plan stays cohesive even when construction spans multiple seasons.
Do you serve all of Loveland?
Yes. We serve Loveland and the surrounding Larimer County communities including Centerra, Waterford Place, Lakes at Centerra, Lake Loveland area, and more. Contact us to confirm coverage for your specific address.
What are permit requirements for landscape design in Loveland?
Loveland's Building and Development Services issues permits for decks, retaining walls over 30 inches, and other structural landscape elements. We handle the permit coordination for any work that requires it in Loveland.
