Nothing takes you back to childhood memories like a gathering around a fire pit or cozy fireplace. We have built dozens of fire pits and fireplaces in Central Iowa out of many different types of natural and man-made stone.

Patios & Pathways

We have installed countless natural stone patios and pathways in Des Moines and the surrounding area. The look is timeless and with a variety of options for natural or man made stone it will last for decades.

The Design Build Process and Associated Fees

The Initial Visit

A $100 consultation fee will be charged for the initial meeting with the client. This fee applies to homes within 35 miles of our office. This will be a one time fee that is paid at the time of the meeting, with no exceptions. During the first meeting the designer will answer any questions you may have about the design process and discuss the scope of your project. If the scope of work is focused in one area, this fee will cover the design fee for the project. If you want to address multiple areas around the house, there will be additional design fees, at a rate of $100 per hour.

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.21.1″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”10px” z_index_tablet=”500″]

Completing the Design

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=”#083d5c” divider_position=”center” divider_weight=”3px” height=”6px” _builder_version=”3.21.1″ max_width=”35%” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”|||” /][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.21.1″ z_index_tablet=”500″]

During the initial consultation the designer will give you an estimate of hours required to complete the design and the associated cost. Payment is then required upon delivery of the plan. A typical 1/2 acre residence will cost $300 – $1000 to develop a detailed design. This cost is dependent on the size of the yard and the level of detail required for the masterplan. Costs will vary accordingly. This amount will be discussed at the initial consultation and agreed upon by the client and designer. Upon the completion of the design, the client may request changes to the plan. If the changes are minor, one revision will be completed with no additional cost. If the changes are extensive, then the same $100 hourly fee applies.

Planting and Construction

When you decide to move forward with construction or planting, design fees will be credited back to you when billed for the project. For every $1000 you spend with Ted Lare Design Build or Ted Lare Garden Center, within one year of delivery of the plan, $100 will be credited back to you. So, if you spend $300 in design fees, you would have to spend $3000 in the first year to get your $300 credited back to you.

Out of Town Work

A minimum of $500 will be charged for design work located outside of town, defined as more than 35 miles away from our office. This covers the initial visit and design work focused on a specific area of the home. For larger projects and masterplans, this fee could be $1000 or more. Your designer can answer any questions about this process prior to scheduling a meeting.
