At Slate & Cedar, our process is designed to make landscape design simple, transparent, and enjoyable—from your first consultation to the final walk-through.
We’ve been helping homeowners across Winston-Salem and surrounding areas build beautiful, functional outdoor spaces that stand the test of time.
Our clients love working with us because we take the time to understand your needs.
We begin with a complimentary in person site visit to learn about your goals, walk the property, and talk through ideas. This is your chance to share your vision, and our opportunity to offer guidance and inspiration based on the space.
Next, we create a tailored design that brings your vision to life. Every design is rooted in essential landscape principles that ensure beauty, functionality, and flow:
We provide a detailed proposal based on the design and scope of work. Prices vary depending on the project size, materials, and complexity, but we’re always upfront and transparent about costs. The price we quote is the price we bill.
We work with your budget and provide phased design options when needed, and we also offer low-interest financing.
Once the design is finalized, we handle all aspects of the build. Our in-house crew and trusted partners handle everything from hardscaping and grading to planting and lighting.
Landscape design is one of the smartest investments you can make in your home. On average, it can boost your property value by 20–30%. But even beyond resale, your outdoor space becomes a part of your everyday life.

DIY projects can be time-consuming. Hiring us means faster results, fewer headaches, and more time for you to enjoy your yard instead of digging it up.
We tackle design challenges like slopes, drainage, awkward layouts, and sun/shade balance with custom solutions.
Our process helps you avoid trial-and-error spending. We use your budget efficiently and guide you through material choices, phases, and contractor coordination (if needed).
Well-designed outdoor spaces increase curb appeal, function, and long-term value.
