Custom landscape plans that balance curb appeal, water use and low maintenance.
Blackland clay in Schertz swells and shrinks with every season, making it one of the toughest soils to landscape on without a real plan. Across The Crossvine, Ashley Park, and Forest Ridge, we work with that clay every week-and it's exactly why homeowners here need a landscape design built specifically for what's under your yard, not some generic template.
Your new home is likely finished just about the same time as your neighbor's three blocks over. They all sit on the same challenging soil, get the same intense Texas sun on west-facing lots, and fill up fast during our spring and fall rain. The right plant palette and bed layout make the difference between a yard that thrives and one that fights you every summer.
We start with a free on-site consultation where we walk your property, measure what you've got, and talk through what you actually want from your outdoor space. Then we build you a clear landscape plan-bed layouts, hardscape zones, plant choices matched to your sun and soil-priced so you can build it all at once or phase it over time. You'll have something real to look at, hold in your hands, and build from whenever you're ready.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your Schertz property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and landscape design that holds up to Guadalupe County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
A Corral Bros landscape design includes an on-site consultation, a plant palette chosen for your sun and soil, a bed and hardscape layout, and phased options to match your budget. You get a clear plan you can build now or in stages, designed for Central Texas conditions.
Landscape design pricing depends on the size and complexity of your property, and we often credit design work toward the installation when we build the project. We give a clear quote up front so you know the cost before we begin, with no surprises.
Schertz's blackland clay will lock up and crack if plants aren't matched to soil drainage and rooting depth. A design keeps you from buying the wrong plants twice. We've seen homeowners spend thousands on plants that fail because the layout didn't account for clay behavior. A plan costs less than fixing mistakes.
We walk your lot, sketch sun patterns from morning to afternoon, test your soil, and listen to what you want. We measure bed areas, note existing trees and structures, and photograph everything. Then we take that information back and build you a detailed plan with plant names, spacing, and a hardscape layout that works with Schertz's drainage challenges.
We start with a free, no-obligation estimate scheduled usually within 48 hours. Design pricing depends on lot size and complexity-a simple front-bed refresh costs far less than a full-yard master plan. We'll give you that number before you decide to move forward.
Absolutely. We offer phased design options so you can tackle the front in spring, the back patio zone next fall, and shade beds the year after. Having a complete plan up front means you're not guessing or creating piecemeal mistakes. Each phase builds toward one cohesive yard.
Tough shrubs like esperanza, flame acanthus, and fragrant sumac thrive here when spaced right for clay drainage. We match every plant choice to your specific sun exposure and soil. Spring bloomers, low-water options, and deer resistance are all factored in based on what you want.
Yes. We layout bed shapes, drainage solutions, and hardscape zones-patios, pathways, retaining beds-then pair those with the right plant palette. The whole plan works together, which is especially important on Schertz clay where proper grading and spacing prevent waterlogging and root problems.
