5 Highlights on Design and Installation
Custom Landscape Plans
Triple Landscaping drafts site-specific designs that account for soil composition, sun exposure, drainage patterns, and your property's existing grade before a single plant goes in the ground. Every plan is tailored to your property's unique conditions and your long-term maintenance preferences.
Full-Service Installation
From hardscape foundations to softscape planting, the crew handles grading, edging, mulching, and irrigation setup as part of a complete installation package.
Licensed and Insured Professionals
Every design and installation project runs under fully licensed, bonded, and insured landscaping professionals who meet state contractor requirements. Learn more about our team.
Plant Selection Expertise
Triple Landscaping sources regionally appropriate species, including native perennials, ornamental grasses, and drought-tolerant shrubs, matched to your climate zone and maintenance preferences.
Irrigation Integration
Each installation includes drip line or sprinkler system planning so your new landscape gets the right water volume from day one without overwatering or leaving dry spots across the property.
Why Choose Our Design and Installation
Triple Landscaping brings hands-on design and installation experience to every residential and commercial property we work on. Our team doesn't hand you a generic plan — we walk your property, measure the site, and build a design around your actual yard conditions.
We're a top-rated landscaping company with a portfolio of completed installations across a wide range of property types, from compact urban lots to multi-acre estates. Our designers hold credentials through the Association of Professional Landscape Designers (APLD), and our installation crews train annually on current grading, drainage, and planting standards.
Every design and installation project comes with a plant establishment guarantee. If a plant fails within the first growing season due to installation error, we replace it at no charge. We also back our hardscape work with a structural warranty covering retaining walls, paver patios, and walkways.
Our pricing is transparent. You get a detailed line-item estimate before work begins, covering materials, labor, and any subcontracted irrigation or drainage work. No surprise charges appear at the end of the job. Triple Landscaping earns repeat business because clients know exactly what they're getting and we deliver it on schedule.
Signs You Need Design and Installation
Your yard has no defined structure
Grass running to the property line with no beds, borders, or focal points signals a yard that needs professional design. A qualified landscape designer can introduce planting zones, pathways, and defined edges that give the space visual order and long-term curb appeal.
Water pools near your foundation after rain
Poor grading sends runoff toward your home instead of away from it. A professional installation corrects the slope, adds French drains or swales, and redirects water to protect your foundation from moisture damage. Our irrigation team can integrate drainage solutions into your overall plan.
You're starting from bare soil after construction
New builds often leave compacted, nutrient-depleted soil with no established plantings. A full design and installation plan addresses soil amendment, erosion control, and plant establishment from the ground up.
Your existing landscape is overgrown and unmanageable
When shrubs outgrow their space, tree roots crack hardscape, or beds become weed-dominated, a redesign and reinstallation is more cost-effective than ongoing reactive maintenance. Triple Landscaping can clear, regrade, and replant the entire area with a plan built for long-term manageability. We also offer seasonal cleanups to maintain your new landscape year-round.
You're adding outdoor living space
Patios, fire pit areas, outdoor kitchens, and pergolas require coordinated hardscape and softscape installation. Without a unified design plan, these features end up visually disconnected from the rest of the yard. Professional design ties every element together with consistent materials, plant selections, and sight lines.
Our Design and Installation Process
Step 1 — Site Consultation
A Triple Landscaping designer visits your property to assess soil type, drainage flow, sun and shade patterns, existing vegetation, and your goals for the space. We take measurements and photographs during this visit.
Step 2 — Design Development
We produce a scaled landscape plan using CAD software. The plan includes planting layouts, hardscape placement, grading adjustments, and irrigation schematics. You review the plan and request changes before we finalize anything.
Step 3 — Material Selection
We present plant species options, hardscape materials, mulch types, and edging styles that fit your design and budget. All materials are sourced from trusted regional suppliers and name-brand manufacturers.
Step 4 — Site Preparation
The installation crew grades the site, removes debris, amends soil, and installs any drainage infrastructure before planting or hardscape work begins.
Step 5 — Installation
Plants go in at the correct depth and spacing. Hardscape elements are set on compacted base material. Irrigation lines are laid and tested. Mulch is applied at the right depth to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Step 6 — Final Walkthrough
A project lead walks the completed installation with you, explains care instructions, and confirms every item on the plan is in place.
Brands We Use
Triple Landscaping selects materials and plants from trusted, industry-recognized brands to ensure every design and installation holds up over time and delivers lasting value for your Twin Cities property.
We follow all manufacturer installation guidelines and safety specifications for every product we use. Proper installation of hardscape materials, irrigation components, and soil amendments protects your investment and keeps the finished landscape safe for your family and property.

FAQs About Design and Installation
What does landscape design and installation include?
Design and installation covers the full process from creating a scaled site plan to physically planting, grading, and building out your outdoor space. It includes plant selection, hardscape construction, soil preparation, irrigation setup, and mulching.
When is the best time to schedule a landscape installation?
Spring and fall are the most productive seasons for installation in most US climate zones. Cooler temperatures support plant establishment and reduce transplant stress. That said, Triple Landscaping completes installations year-round depending on ground conditions and project scope.
Why should I hire a professional instead of doing it myself?
Professional installation accounts for drainage, soil health, plant spacing, and structural requirements that most homeowners don’t have the tools or training to address. Mistakes in grading or plant placement can cause foundation damage, plant failure, or costly repairs down the road.
How long does a design and installation project take?
Most residential projects run between three and ten days depending on scope. A simple planting bed installation may wrap in a day. A full backyard redesign with hardscape, irrigation, and planting can take one to two weeks.
Can Triple Landscaping work with an existing design?
Yes. If you already have a landscape plan from an architect or designer, our crew can execute the installation directly from those drawings. We review the plan for site-specific adjustments before work begins.
Does the design phase cost extra?
Triple Landscaping offers design as part of a bundled design-build package. The design fee is credited toward your installation cost when you move forward with the full project.
How do I maintain my new landscape after installation?
We provide written care instructions at the final walkthrough covering watering schedules, fertilization timing, pruning guidelines, and seasonal prep. We also offer ongoing maintenance contracts for clients who want professional upkeep year-round.
