Backyard design FAQ

How do I design my backyard landscape?

Upload a photo of your backyard (taken from a corner or doorway works best), answer questions about your style, budget, intended use, and privacy needs. Buy a $29.99 Design Pack and Yardcast creates one complete backyard design in both bed options, plus a free redo.

How much does backyard landscaping cost?

A basic backyard makeover runs $5,000–$20,000 installed. A professional design plan costs $2,000–$6,000 alone. Yardcast gives you a complete printable design package — including patio recommendations, privacy planting, and plant quantities — for $29.99.

What's the best way to add privacy to a backyard?

Fast-growing privacy plants include Leyland Cypress (3–4 ft/year), Green Giant Arborvitae (3–5 ft/year), Bamboo (clumping varieties), and Nellie Stevens Holly. Your Yardcast design identifies the best privacy solution for your yard size and climate.

How do I create a backyard outdoor living space?

Start with a patio or deck as the anchor, then layer: dining area → seating/lounge area → fire pit → garden beds → privacy screening. Your Yardcast design creates zones based on your yard size and how you want to use the space.

What plants work for backyard shade?

For shade planting: Japanese Maple, River Birch, Serviceberry, or Dogwood for small yards; Red Maple, Sweetbay Magnolia, or Crabapple for medium yards. Your design accounts for existing shade and where you want to create it.

Can I design a backyard on a small budget?

Yes. Your Yardcast design includes a phased plan: Year 1 essentials ($500–$2,000), Year 3 expansions ($1,000–$3,000), Year 5 full build-out. The phase plan lets you spread cost over 5 years and DIY what you can.
