The professional landscape team at Jake's Designs understands the varied terrain of the area and the individual styles of each home. They work with start-to-finish expertise to design and create the one-of-a-kind outdoor living spaces you always wanted.

Conserve Water With The Smart Beauty Of Xeriscape Design

Xeriscaping involves the designing of landscapes meant to use little or no water beyond what nature already provides. This mindful, water-wise practice is becoming increasingly popular in the often arid climate of Colorado. It doesn't mean homeowners have to compromise on the overall beauty of their backyard landscapes. With the use of proper xeriscape techniques and smart irrigation principles, long-lasting beauty can be achieved and enjoyed year-round. Here are a few of the awesome benefits of including xeriscaping to your Black Forest landscape design plans.

  • Saves Water and Money — Xeriscaping reduces wasteful water usage for sustainable, environmentally-friendly landscapes while substantially lowering water bills. 
  • Minimize Landscape Maintenance and Upkeep — Low-water, drought-resistant plantings require little watering and maintenance after initial set-up. You can enjoy your landscape without the work.
  • Preserve Native Plants — Many xeriscape designs highlight native Colorado plants along with a variety of other colorful plants that thrive in similar environments. It offers a wide range of aesthetically-pleasing choices.

Jake's Designs is one of the most trusted xeriscaping companies in Colorado known for its high-quality results and customer satisfaction.

Bring Nature To Your Door With A Customized Water Feature

Water features add sound, movement, and texture to your backyard landscape design. Water elements breathe vitality into your landscape offering visual appeal as well as a soothing ambiance. Whether you prefer the gently flowing relaxation of a mountain stream or want to unwind in your own natural spa, your outdoor haven is enhanced when water is included.

Installing an eye-catching water feature may be one of the best decisions you make. Running water attracts birds and wildlife while it improves air quality and reduces unwanted noise. Most water features can be adapted to fit in small or irregular spaces making good use of available land. Your one-of-a-kind landscape water element enhances the local ecosystem with minimal maintenance. It is also a great way to boost curb appeal and property values.

Entertain In Style With Your Own Outdoor Kitchen

Diehard grill masters no longer have to split their culinary attention between the indoor kitchen and the backyard. Extending your living spaces to include a quality outdoor kitchen gives you everything you need to dazzle your guests and prepare whole meals in style. The team at Jake's Designs works with homeowners to determine placement options, design, and build beautiful and functional outdoor kitchens you are sure to love. They also help you choose the best weather-resistant, quality appliances for years of outdoor enjoyment. Here are a few outdoor kitchen ideas:

  • Grill — The grill is often the essential heart of your outdoor kitchen. From two-sided grills for versatile cooking to custom built-in grills, your inner chef will shine.
  • Refrigeration — A refrigerator keeps things cold while you cook and is an obvious addition to any outdoor kitchen. Jake's Designs can help you choose the right one for your needs.
  • Pizza Oven — Start a family pizza night tradition with a cool, custom-built pizza oven. Prepare and serve delicious Italian-style pizza pies all year long. It's an outdoor kitchen feature sure to become a favorite among family and friends.
  • Storage Drawers — Storing smaller kitchen necessities nearby keeps cooks from running back and forth to the indoor kitchen for towels or utensils. Storage cabinets also come in handy for dishes and pots.
  • Bar — Homeowners in Black Forest who enjoy entertaining may want to consider installing a bar in their outdoor kitchen. There is no need to go out on the town when you keep the party at home in your backyard.

Include Strategic Lighting In Your Landscape Design

Your beautiful landscape doesn't have to disappear when the sun goes down. Light up the evening with professionally installed landscape lighting. Not only does the proper lighting enhance your landscape's special features, but it also provides safe passage on walkways or driveways. Transform water features into an inviting oasis or illuminate trees to create interesting shadows.
