How much does xeriscaping cost?

On average, a xeriscaping project for around 1500 square feet, including walkways, garden beds, rock, and flagstone, typically costs around $10,000. For larger projects covering the entire backyard, the cost may range from $20,000 to $30,000.

What are the best plants and materials for xeriscaping?

We recommend using natural stone and rock as primary materials for your xeriscape landscape. These elements not only lend a timeless and organic appeal but also provide excellent durability and resilience against the local climate. In terms of xeriscape plants, some of the most common plants we use Red Yucca, Agave, Daylily, Flax Lily, Pink Muhly Grass, Texas Sage, Lantana, Esperanza, Liriope, Succulents, Prickly Pear Cactus, and more.

How fast can you complete a xeriscaping project?

For an average-sized xeriscaping project, we can complete the installation within a week. Larger spaces may require up to two weeks to ensure every detail is meticulously handled. Rest assured, we work diligently to bring your vision to life without compromising on quality.

How do you stop weeds in xeriscape?

To combat weeds, we employ a multi-faceted approach. We start by laying weed barrier fabric, preventing spore germination from neighboring lawns when mowed. While the fabric significantly reduces weed growth, it's essential to acknowledge that some weed control is still required. Our team applies targeted sprays as needed, ensuring a weed-free and immaculate xeriscape landscape.

Do you need to remove grass before xeriscaping?

Yes, removing existing vegetation, including grass, is a crucial step in the xeriscaping process. Thorough removal reduces the potential for weeds to grow underneath the weed barrier fabric. For projects like a flagstone walkway, we take the preparation a step further by removing the grass and around 3-4 inches of soil. This ensures a well-compacted subgrade before the installation of the walkway materials, resulting in a long-lasting and stable feature.

How much water does a xeriscape landscape need?

While xeriscaping significantly reduces water usage compared to traditional lawns, it's essential to maintain consistent moisture levels in the soil to protect your home's foundation. We advise homeowners to irrigate their xeriscape properties as if they had a grass lawn, especially in regions like ours with clay soils that can shrink when dry. Proper irrigation ensures a healthy foundation and minimizes the risk of structural issues. Our expertise in dirt work allows us to implement targeted irrigation solutions, focusing on the soil around the foundation.

Pool Design & Installation FAQs

How much does a pool cost?

An average pool designed and built by a professional pool company will run between $75,000 and $100,000. Of course, if the pool is larger and more complex, the cost will increase. Maintaining a pool monthly can cost around $100.

How long does it take to build a pool?

I’d hate to ballpark a timeline without knowing the scope. Besides that, building a pool means a lot of digging, which can’t happen during the raining season. There’s also permitting, concrete work, and more that can cause delays. We do our best to stay within the promised timeline, which is often between 3-6 months.

What types of pools do you install?

We design and install in-ground swimming pools. We can also do above ground pools or modular pools, but we rarely recommend them. A gunite, in-ground pools is more beautiful, more versatile, and will last for as long as you’ll live in your home.

What to expect working with you on my pool?

We pride ourselves on reliability, integrity, and transparency. With Legacy Outdoors, you’ll the whole nine yards and we’ll make it all easy.

Permitting, planning, designing, inspections, construction, and everything else is taken care by a clean-cut team of tradesmen. You’ll enjoy daily communication, honest advice, a detailed and final quote, and an experience you’ll enjoy in and out.

Do you offer a warranty on your pools?

Yes! We offer a workmanship warranty and the materials warranty that vary from 5 to over 15 years. We stand by our work and if there’s anything wrong with your pool’s installation, we’ll be there to fix it.

What are the best pool features to have?

There are a lot, but to name just a few, we always recommend automatic water level control, a built-in bench, anti-slip stairs, retractable mesh to cover the pool, enough lighting fixtures, a robot skimmer, a heat pump to extend your pool season, and more.
