Frequently Asked Questions
What areas do you service?
We proudly serve the Greater Austin area, with a primary focus on Central Austin and surrounding neighborhoods. For larger construction projects, we may travel up to 30 miles from downtown. Maintenance services are generally limited to central zones to ensure consistent quality and efficient scheduling.
Do you have a project minimum?
Yes. For landscape construction projects, our minimum is $15,000. This ensures we can dedicate the time and resources needed to deliver exceptional results. For ongoing maintenance services, there is no dollar minimum, but we typically do not offer one-time or seasonal cleanups—our focus is on long-term care.
How much do your landscape design services cost?
Our design fees range from $999 to $5,000 depending on complexity, such as basic layout plans versus detailed 3D renderings. If you move forward with a build through Terra Dura Landscapes, this design fee is credited toward your construction cost.
When can you start my project?
Design consultations are usually scheduled about a month out. Once your design and contract are finalized, construction generally begins within 1–2 months. Expect a full timeline of 1 to 3 months from initial contact to groundbreaking, depending on the season and demand.
Do you offer xeriscaping or low-maintenance options?
Yes. While our primary focus is outdoor construction, we often integrate drought-tolerant plants, native species, and smart irrigation systems to reduce maintenance and water use. We’ll guide you on creating a beautiful space that fits your desired level of upkeep.
Can you maintain the landscape once it’s installed?
Absolutely. We offer tailored maintenance plans for clients who want their investment protected long-term. From pruning and irrigation checks to seasonal adjustments, our team ensures your outdoor space continues to perform and look its best.

Every design emphasizes functionality, aesthetics, and durability—with native and low-maintenance options when appropriate.
How much do your landscape builds cost?
