Our Residential Landscape Design & Build Services

Violet Crown Landscape and Design provides a full range of landscape design and build services in Austin, TX, to transform your home into an outdoor oasis. Our team of professionals is dedicated to creating useful and beautiful landscapes that reflect your particular taste while also adding to the beauty of your house.

Hardscaping

Our hardscaping services include constructing patios, walkways, retaining walls, and other structural features that provide form and purpose to your outdoor space. We employ high-quality materials such as natural stone, brick, and concrete to ensure durability and lifespan. Whether you want a cozy patio for entertaining guests or a winding walkway through your garden, our designs are tailored to complement your home's architecture and fit seamlessly into the surrounding environment. Additionally, our retaining walls not only add visual interest but also help manage soil erosion and create leveled areas for planting or additional seating.

Softscaping

Softscaping involves the careful selection and planting of trees, shrubs, flowers, and grasses to create a lush, vibrant landscape. Our team considers factors such as soil type, sunlight, and water requirements to choose plants that will thrive in your specific location. We design garden beds, install sod or seed lawns, and create seasonal color displays that enhance the visual appeal of your property year-round. By incorporating native plants and sustainable practices, we ensure your landscape is both beautiful and environmentally friendly.

Water Features

A water feature can add a sense of calm and beauty to any outdoor environment. We design and construct an array of water features, including ponds, fountains, and waterfalls, that blend smoothly into your entire landscape design. Our water features are crafted to provide soothing sounds and visual interest, creating a serene atmosphere for relaxation and enjoyment. We also focus on low-maintenance options to ensure your water feature remains a stunning focal point without requiring excessive upkeep.

Landscape Lighting

Our custom landscape lighting solutions are designed to enhance the aesthetic and functionality of your outdoor spaces after dark. We install energy-efficient and sustainable lighting options that highlight key features of your landscape, improve safety, and create ambiance. Whether you need pathway lights, accent lighting for trees and plants, or illumination for outdoor living areas, we have the expertise to design and implement a lighting plan that meets your needs.

“This team of Charles and Jennifer are incredible. We make the outside of the home look incredible with siding, windows, roofing and gutters and they come in and finish the yard and the landscape architecture to take the property to a new level. Thank you so much for the partnership and for always doing a good job with taking care of the customer. That's the most important thing always.”

“The work that Violet Crown has provided us with has been nothing short of amazing. Charles Rice stands by his work, and is meticulous to ensure his work meets the highest expectations. His wife Jennifer consulted us (very patiently!) on the most ideal plants for what we were envisioning. She guided us through maintenance, availability, and durability here in Central TX.”
Tara P. Google Review
“I initially contacted Violet Crown about updating our landscaping but during our review meeting I lamented over not being able to find someone to take on our patio cover project and Jennifer said "we can do it". And they did! Charles looked at our crazy roof lines and figured out how we could do it! It turned out beautiful and just what we wanted. He also took care to put in the extra touches that we asked for. Additionally during the patio cover project we developed a leak in a bathroom which he also took on resulting in a beautiful new bath and laundry room. I recommend Violet Crown to anyone looking for a remodel or landscaping. We hope to start our landscaping project soon!”
