The Heritage Landscapes Process
Every Landscape Has a Rhythm
We believe the process should feel as good as the finished space. Whether you’re starting from scratch in Napa, refreshing a garden in Ross, or maintaining an estate in Kentfield, our approach is built around clarity, collaboration, and care.
We don’t believe in handoffs or headaches. From first conversation to final walkthrough—and well beyond—we’re with you every step of the way. It’s the Heritage Landscapes way.

Walk & Listen

Every project starts on site. We listen to what matters most to you—how you want to live, what’s working, what’s not—and assess your property’s unique conditions.
Design With Intention
We create a tailored plan that reflects your vision, respects the land, and aligns with your lifestyle. Whether full-scale design or focused enhancement, every detail is considered.
Build With Precision
Our in-house crew and trusted partners bring the plan to life on time, on budget, and with expert oversight at every stage. If your project requires permitting, our team will guide and assist with that process to keep everything moving smoothly.
Maintain & Evolve
We stay connected long after the install. Through seasonal maintenance and ongoing enhancements, we help your landscape grow better with time.
