The Greenway Process Was Designed for an

Enjoyable, Hassle-Free
Landscaping Experience

Our refined Greenway Process is designed to deliver exceptional results for our clients in San Marcos, California, and throughout the North County San Diego area. This is how we make that happen:

Step 1: Get in Touch

Step 2: Discovery Call

This is our opportunity to get to know each other. On the Discovery Call, you'll tell us all about your project. We'll ask plenty of questions and give you some ideas that you might not have considered. If we're a great fit, we'll schedule an on-site visit to walk your property with you. If we're not a great fit, we'll be happy to make some referrals to companies that might be better suited for your project.

Step 3: On-Site Visit

We'll visit your property to take some photos, videos and measurements. This typically takes about 30-45 minutes, during which time we'll discuss your vision and give you a few ideas to help you meet your goals. This is a great time to ask questions! If we identify any potential landscaping issues or challenges, we'll discuss those with you, as well.

We'll determine whether a design is required or if we can proceed without one. If your project doesn't need a design, you'll receive a proposal within 10 days. If your project does require a design, we'll do a 3D design and collect 100% of the design fee. We can typically deliver these designs within four weeks and will set a delivery date with you.

Step 4: Design Plan Presentation

If a 3D design is part of the work we’ll be doing for you, we'll deliver your 3D video design in person, via video conference call or email to give you a clear idea of what your finished landscape will look like. You'll have an opportunity to provide feedback and discuss revisions to the plan. If revisions are required, we'll schedule a meeting to discuss them. After you approve the design, we'll collect the remaining 50% of the design fee and prepare the project cost estimate for you within seven days.

Step 5: Design Approval + Agreement Signing

Step 6: Installation and Work

Before work begins, your project manager and the installation crew will walk your property with you to get everyone on the same page and ready to work! We'll paint and rope off areas to help you visualize the project and inform our team of where everything will go. After collecting another payment, we'll start the project. You can expect us to arrive on time, work diligently and safely, and keep you updated on our progress.
