What's Included

A Real Landscape Design Plan for Your Sonoma County Property

Every landscape design project at RE Landscape Sonoma starts with an actual plan, not a courtesy walkthrough. We design around your property's specific climate, soil, and layout, along with your goals and your budget, before a single shovel moves.

We provide landscape design services for homeowners in Sonoma, Petaluma, Rohnert Park, Santa Rosa, Windsor, Napa, Cotati, Novato, and San Rafael.

On-Site Consultation

We visit your property in person — whether it's a hillside lot in Sonoma or a flat residential yard in Santa Rosa — and talk through exactly how you want to use the space.

Custom Concept Design

Every concept is designed specifically for your property and how you live — never a generic template — matched to the wine-country aesthetic homeowners across Sonoma County want.

Material & Plant Selection

We recommend drought-tolerant and native plant species suited to Sonoma County's climate, so your landscape thrives whether you're in Petaluma's cooler coastal air or Napa's warmer inland heat.

Transparent Cost Estimate

A clear, itemized estimate before you commit to anything — no vague ballpark numbers and no surprise costs once installation begins.

The Design Process

From First Walk to Final Estimate

Four steps, one point of contact, no guessing what happens next — whether your property sits in Rohnert Park or out toward Windsor.

Step 1

Site Walk & Goals

No jargon, no rushed pitch — just a real conversation about your property, whether it's a compact lot in Cotati or a larger parcel out toward Windsor. We take note of sun, drainage, and existing features while we talk.

Step 2

Concept & Materials

You receive a draft concept along with a curated material and plant palette matched to your goals, your property's style, and your budget — delivered within 5 business days, whether you're in Rohnert Park or elsewhere in Sonoma County.

Step 3

Revisions

One round of revisions is included at no extra cost, per our Design Guarantee — so the plan reflects what you actually want, not just our first idea.

Step 4

Final Estimate

A locked-in, itemized estimate and a clear installation timeline — before any work begins. Ready to move forward whenever you are, whether that's in Windsor, Cotati, Rohnert Park, or anywhere else in Sonoma County.

Why It Matters

Great Outdoor Spaces Start With a Plan, Not Guesswork

Skipping design and jumping straight to installation is where most landscaping projects go wrong — mismatched materials, awkward layouts, and budgets that balloon mid-project. A real design phase catches all of that before it costs you anything.

Fewer surprises mid-project. Materials, layout, and budget are all locked in before installation starts, not decided on the fly.

A cohesive look, not a patchwork. Every element is planned together, so your hardscape, plantings, and lighting actually work as one design.

Built for how you'll actually use it. The plan reflects your goals first — entertaining, low-maintenance, privacy — not a one-size-fits-all layout.

Is This Right For You?

Who This Landscape Design Service Is For

We'd rather be upfront about fit than waste your time — or ours.

This is a great fit if you…

  • Own a home or property in Sonoma County and want a design that fits the wine-country aesthetic
  • Want a real plan and a transparent estimate before committing to a full installation
  • Prefer one team handling design through build, instead of juggling separate contractors
  • Are planning a patio, garden, hardscape feature, or full outdoor renovation
  • Want it done once, done right — not the cheapest version that needs redoing in two years

This might not be the right fit if you…

  • Just need routine mowing or basic yard upkeep — that's our Landscape Maintenance service, not design
  • Are shopping purely on lowest price rather than long-term quality
  • Need work completed within a day or two — a real design takes a little time to get right
  • Are located outside Sonoma County and the surrounding North Bay

If that sounds like you, let's talk about your property.

The before-and-after transformation blew us away. The crew was careful with our deck and followed every instruction we gave — we found our regular gardener.

Rafael's crew built us a beautiful crushed stone garden border and were meticulous about cleaning up afterward. Quality, affordable work — we'd recommend them to anyone.

Rafael and his team showed up on time, stayed flexible when our scope grew, and did more than we asked — all while being careful and friendly throughout.

Common Questions

Landscape Design FAQ

Not at all. Most clients come in with a general idea — more privacy, a better entertaining space, less maintenance — and we help shape that into a concrete plan during the walkthrough.

Most concepts are delivered within 5 business days of your on-site consult, whether your property is in central Napa or further out toward Novato.

One revision is included as part of our Design Guarantee, so the plan reflects what you actually want — not just our first idea.

Both. We take on everything from courtyard refreshes in San Rafael to full estate-scale designs elsewhere in Sonoma County.

The concept and estimate are yours either way. That said, most clients choose to have our own crew execute the plan, since we already know the design inside and out and can build it exactly as intended.

We provide landscape design and installation services throughout Sonoma County and the North Bay, including Sonoma, Petaluma, Rohnert Park, Santa Rosa, Windsor, Napa, Cotati, Novato, and San Rafael. Not sure if your property falls in range? Just give us a call and we'll tell you honestly.
