New Construction Landscaping for Custom Homes & Developments
From blank dirt lots to polished outdoor showpieces, AGT Landscape & Design turns new builds into move-in-ready sanctuaries across Boulder, Larimer, and Weld counties. Whether you’re a production builder rolling out 20 homes or a homeowner breaking ground on a one-of-a-kind residence, we deliver complete post-construction landscaping—on budget, on schedule, and built to thrive in Colorado’s demanding climate.
Why Trust AGT with Your New Build?
Design–Build continuity. One team handles the 3-D design, municipal approvals, grading, hardscape, irrigation, and final plantings—eliminating hand-offs that cause delays.
Colorado-specific expertise. We engineer every plan around Front Range soils, snow loads, and water-use ordinances, so landscapes establish fast and stay gorgeous year-round.
Builder-friendly timelines. Tight CO and CFO dates? Our crews integrate with your construction calendar and work parallel to finishing trades to hit closings without chaos.
Warranty-backed workmanship. All irrigation, hardscape, and plant material carries a written warranty; punch-list items are resolved before the final walkthrough.
Our Proven New-Build Landscape Process
| Phase | Key Tasks | Builder / Owner Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Lot Assessment & Grade Set | Soil compaction test, rough-grade survey, drainage plan | Prevents foundation water issues & rework |
| 2. Concept & Budget | 3-D renderings, plant palette, phased cost schedule | Stakeholder clarity & fast HOA approval |
| 3. Permits & Utility Locates | City water-tap, backflow, hardscape permits | We handle paperwork so builders don’t |
| 4. Infrastructure Install | Sleeve utilities, trench irrigation main, pour flatwork | Sub-surface work done before finish trades |
| 5. Hardscape & Softscape | Patios, retaining walls, sod/seed, trees & beds | Turnkey completion—no second mobilization |
| 6. Final Inspection & Handover | Smart-controller tutorial, as-built plan, warranty folder | Homeowners start Day 1 with a worry-free yard |
Grading & Soil Preparation
A stable, well-drained base is non-negotiable. We laser-grade to ±0.25 in., amend native clay with compost and expanded shale, and install root-zone biostimulants to jump-start turf and plant establishment.
Water-Smart Irrigation
EPA WaterSense controllers, pressure-regulated heads, and drip zones cut outdoor water use up to 40 % compared with legacy timers—helping new homeowners comply with Boulder and Fort Collins conservation rules from day one.
Hardscapes & Outdoor Living
From concrete pavers and Colorado buff flagstone patios to boulder retaining walls and gas fire features, our ICPI-certified installers build outdoor rooms that match your architectural style and survive freeze-thaw cycles.
Native Planting & Turf Options
Low-water fescue/bluegrass sod blends
Xeric shrub beds with Penstemon, Rabbitbrush, and Apache Plume
Pollinator gardens and edible raised beds for eco-minded buyers

Frequently Asked Questions
Q 1. How soon after the certificate of occupancy can you start?
Our grading crews mobilize as soon as heavy equipment clears the site—often overlapping with interior punch-out work—so you hit closing dates without delays.
Q 2. Can we phase the backyard until the buyers settle in?
Absolutely. We sleeve utilities under future hardscapes and rough-wire lighting, allowing buyers to upgrade later without demolition.
Q 3. What’s the average cost for new construction landscaping?
Front-yard-only packages start around $8–10 K; whole-yard designs with patios and lighting typically range $25–40 K and Up. We itemize every line so you can choose the scope that fits with your budget.
