Services
Maintenance
Report
I encourage customers to allow me to maintain their gardens over time to protect and nourish their investment in their landscape. Intelligent maintenance is the cornerstone of a great garden; I have seen too many landscapes ruined by inexpensive mow and blow operations who simply didn't know what they were doing.
Installation
Report
A minimum of $10,000. Installation is based on the plants, materials, and labor needed. How much will a landscape installation cost? If you need a new - or complete remodel - a good rule of thumb is to figure on 5-10% of the value of your home. Example: a house valued at $300,000 will need a landscape installation in the range of $15,000 -$30,000. We do many of our projects in phases.
Design
Report
Either a frontyard, backyard or full property landscape design by a professional landscape designer. Includes a site visit, a professional landscape design drawing to scale, one revision, and an estimate of plants, materials and installation prices. $750 for front or back yard design; $1500 for full property design. The cost of a consultation is included in this price.

Because Texas existing water resources are limited, we sought to find a landscape artist/architect to create a sustainable back yard that would require little water and would have native plants that could withstand future droughts. Robert Leeper is a creative genius. He transformed our unhappy back yard from a barren space of dirt, dead lawn, and a collection of overgrown shrubs into a stylishly modern multi-use space-- within our budget.
Our yard was sloped and he cut it into a series of terraced steps. It looks very European and minimal which we love. He used a mixture of pavers and pea gravel and reduced but elevated our lawn in a steel frame by carving out the earth. We now have a mixture of distinct modern areas that looks very sleek and symmetrical.

I wish there were more than 5 stars! I can't say enough about Robert's work. He transformed my yard from an ugly mess to an ordered, beautiful landscaped yard. He has great ideas, goes out of his way to use native plants and is detailed oriented. I had my complete yard done, front, back and sides. He installed limestone brick walls, plants, mulch, gravel, and even a fully automated irrigation drip system, so I don't even have to worry about with watering. After the first job, I had him do additional work. Can't recommend Robert enough!

Robert took our design criteria: no watering and no mowing and created one of the most beautiful natural landscapes. Using only native, deer resistant plant material which means lots of native grasses, mountain laurel and agave, the landscape is beautiful year round. Summer and spring the wind creates motion in the grasses and the sun shines through the feathery blossoms. Fall and winter colors accent the architectural elements of the house. He is fabulous with colors! And his crew is great. Stone mason is amazing.

Robert Leeper Landscapes has it all: amazing design ideas, skilled and professional crew, great personalities to work with -- it's fun to work with the designers and the crew are friendly and so professional. I've worked with them for about five years on large projects and small ones and have had the best experiences ever. They are particularly great at taking my stabs at a concept or theme and making it into a design that is affordable and fits my property. Also, their foremen and crew are great to have around and always make sure everything looks great, works well, is totally cleaned up after the job. Couldn't be happier with this company!
