There is no way any two landscapes in Franklin, Tennessee should be alike. Every homeowner has unique property features, aesthetic preferences, and lifestyle goals, and those considerations should lead to a creative landscape design perfectly suited to your home. 

At Gardens of Babylon Landscapes, we specialize in innovative and sustainable solutions tailored to your property’s unique needs. Our goal is to design landscapes that balance beauty, functionality, and ease of care. A far cry from the cookie-cutter approach, we instead personalize your experience with us to ensure every detail of your landscape meets your needs.

Our mission is to understand how you intend to use your outdoor space so we can design accordingly. We look at slopes and drainage, foot traffic, durability, and maintenance concerns when we recommend hardscaping materials, plants, and features.

You’ll have the opportunity to collaborate with your Landscape Design Consultant, review a 2D or 3D design rendering, and request revisions before your design gets handed off to our installation team. With a detailed proposal and payment schedule, there are no surprises along the way.

Since 2003, we have been designing and building outdoor kitchens, patios, gardens, landscape lighting, pools, and so much more in Franklin, Tennessee and throughout the greater Nashville area. Our all-in-one approach ensures you can complete your entire project, no matter how complex, with one company, eliminating the need to hire and juggle multiple contractors. Your dedicated support team includes a Project Manager, logistics experts, and skilled artisans, and we’re all here to help.

Find out how we can bring your outdoor vision to life!

1. Contact Us

Fill out our online form, and we will be in touch to book either a phone or in-person meeting with one of our Landscape Design Consultants.

2. Initial Consultation

Talk to a Landscape Design Consultant about your vision and budget, and learn more about the creative ways we can bring your ideas to life. You will get a sense of the investment needed for your ideal landscape and options we can do, such as phasing in certain features to make it more affordable. After the consultation, we will deliver an investment guide that includes project features with price ranges for each. We can also collect your retainer and put it toward your installation.

3. Design Concept

We provide 2D or 3D design renderings to help you conceptualize your space. Once you are ready to move forward with the design, we can move to the proposal.

4. Proposal

The proposal is the scope of the work being completed on your property, along with an exact price and payment schedule outlining the elements of your design. This will also include materials. We collect a materials deposit at the time of the contract signature and then get you on the calendar for construction. Typically, we send you a project start date within 48 hours of signing the contract. The project start date will depend on the time of year, project size, and materials.

5. Project Kickoff

Your project kickoff with the Landscape Design Consultant and Project Manager covers the project roadmap, layouts, features, placement, and materials confirmation. Your Project Manager will walk the property with you, explaining the details of the project. Expect consistent communication from your project manager throughout the duration of your project with the landscape design consultant, who is available for frequent check-ins. Payments are due at set milestones as outlined in your agreement.

6. Final Walkthrough

At the end of the project, any loose ends are tied up, and your Project Manager will walk the property with you and discuss our landscape maintenance options. The final invoice is due at your final walkthrough.

7. Ongoing Care and Warranties

We will perform a plant health check within one to two weeks after the completion of larger planting projects, during which our plant experts will check on plant health, soil moisture, pests, mulch, and more.
If you have not already signed up for landscape maintenance, a dedicated Maintenance Consultant will reach out to discuss our offerings. Signing up for a qualifying full-service maintenance package includes an additional warranty of up to 12 months (you receive a 60-day warranty without a maintenance contract).
