The Colony Landscaping & Outdoor Living Company

Most design-build projects in The Colony land between $15,000-$70,000, depending on how much hardscape and outdoor living you include. A focused upgrade like a patio or a lighting system costs less; a full property transformation costs more.

• Retaining Walls starts around $5,000
• Paver Patios starts around $5,000
• Drainage Solutions starts around $2,000

Pricing here reflects what The Colony homeowners expect and what North Texas soil demands underneath. Cheaper bids usually save money on the base, the drainage, or the reinforcement you cannot see, which is exactly where a project fails two years later. After your design you get a fixed-scope proposal, so the number you agree to is the number you pay.

Lakefront and peninsula lots in The Colony often slope toward the water, which makes retaining walls, terracing, and real drainage engineering the foundation of nearly every project here.

The Colony sits in Denton County, and like most of Dallas-Fort Worth it is built on heavy clay. That soil swells when it takes on water and shrinks when it dries, which is why patios shift, walls lean, and water ends up against foundations when the groundwork is rushed. Every project we build here starts with grade and drainage before anything decorative goes in.

We design and build across The Colony, including The Tribute, Austin Waters, Stewart Peninsula, Legend Crest, and Bayside. We work throughout 75056. Our crews work near The Tribute Golf Links, Grandscape, Stewart Creek Park, so we know the area rather than just the address.

We also serve nearby Frisco, Plano, Lewisville, Little Elm.

Yes. Many The Colony communities require architectural review before work starts, and requirements vary between them. We prepare the submittal package as part of the design, so your board gets a complete set of drawings instead of a description in an email.

Getting this wrong is expensive. Building without approval can mean removing finished work, which is the most costly way to save time.

The work that comes up most often here is retaining walls, landscape design, paver patios. That reflects how The Colony properties are built and what growing, with lakefront luxury homeowners here tend to invest in.

Because we are a design-build firm, one team handles the design, the hardscape, the planting, the drainage, and the lighting. You get one point of contact and one company accountable for the whole property, in The Colony, TX and across the metroplex.
