Landscape Design & Installation in Dallas, TX
Four Seasons Lawn + Landscaping designs and builds landscapes, hardscapes and outdoor living spaces for Dallas homeowners. From renovating an older front yard to building a complete backyard retreat, we design the planting, patios, drainage and lighting as one plan and build it with our own crews.

Landscaping in Established Dallas Neighborhoods
Many Dallas homes in areas like Preston Hollow, Lake Highlands and Lakewood have decades-old landscapes, large shade trees and irrigation systems that were never designed for today’s watering rules. A renovation is a chance to fix drainage, update irrigation, and design beds and hardscapes that fit how you live now.
Trees. Dallas protects most trees through its urban forest ordinance. Single-family lots under two acres are generally excepted from tree removal applications, but Neighborhood Forest Overlays, historic and conservation districts, and demolition projects can change that. We check before any tree comes out, and we design around healthy trees and their roots.
Designing for Dallas Watering Rules
Dallas limits sprinkler watering to twice a week: even-numbered addresses on Sundays and Thursdays, odd-numbered addresses on Saturdays and Wednesdays, and no watering between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. from April 1 through October 31. We design with drip irrigation in beds, separate zones for turf and beds, and plants that thrive on that schedule.
Dallas Water Utilities offers free irrigation audits through Save Dallas Water, and has piloted rebates of up to $3,000 for upgrades such as WaterSense controllers, drip conversions and splitting turf and bed zones. If you are upgrading your irrigation, ask us about fitting the work to the program’s requirements.
When to Plant in Dallas
Fall is usually the best time to plant trees, shrubs and perennials. Warm-season sod does best from late spring through summer. Hardscapes and outdoor living spaces can be built year-round.
