Jon and Team were great to work with throughout the project. We had a few delays that Jon was more than willing to accommodate, and he was a great professional throughout. Our yard looks phenomenal and we haven’t had any follow-up issues since the installation.
Jon also went above and beyond and graveled our backup parking space because he had extra material.
The whole project was completed faster than I anticipated and completely on budget. I would HIGHLY recommend Land Designs to anyone in Denver. Great job and thank you!

John is a pleasure to deal with. His plant knowledge is extensive and his design eye is superb.
He has done many projects for us to include a paver patio, planting beds, garden design/planting and a French drain system, with several more projects scheduled for this Spring.
I recommend John and his company unreservedly.
What Will It Cost? Straight Talk for Hilltop
Design packages typically start around $1,200 for a concept plan. Detailed construction drawings and 3D renderings add to the investment. Based on past project estimates, most Hilltop homes land between $1,200–$3,500+, depending on scope and deliverables.
Your site and goals are unique—share the specifics and we’ll price your project line by line.
Five things that shape cost
- Size of the Basement: A small media room won’t cost the same as a full suite with bathroom, kitchen, and bedroom. More space means more materials, labor, and permits.
- Level of Finishes: Premium tile, energy-efficient lighting, and custom built-ins add beauty—and increase the budget. We’ll help you prioritize what’s worth it.
- Plumbing & Electrical Upgrades: Adding a bathroom or kitchenette often drives cost, especially in older Rib Mountain homes.
- Structural Modifications: Knocking out walls, rerouting ductwork, or lowering floors adds complexity and cost. We’ll assess and guide every step.
- Permits & Inspections: Rib Mountain has specific codes and timelines. We handle permits, planning, and coordination so you’re fully covered.
Budget & Schedule
Budget: We know the two questions that matter most: how much will it cost, and how long will it take? Our answer is simple—no smoke, no surprises. You’ll see the numbers upfront and the schedule laid out before work begins.
Once we’re underway, you’ll get steady updates, not excuses. Crews work clean, trades are lined up in order, and problems get solved before they land on your plate. Weather shifts, material delays—whatever it is, you’ll hear it straight from us along with the plan to keep things moving.
Deadlines: From the street, construction can look chaotic. On our end, it’s tightly managed—trades scheduled in order, plants and finishes protected, the site left clean each day. If weather or materials force a change, you’ll hear from us first with the fix. The timeline is the timeline—we finish when promised because that’s part of the work.
