We hired LCM to help with an erosion issue in our backyard, and while our main focus was resolving that problem, Landon’s design went far beyond what we imagined was possible for our space.
Read the whole review
With a smaller yard and the challenge of a retaining wall, we didn’t think our backyard could ever feel so special, but Landon and his team completely transformed it into something magical. Our backyard now feels like a private retreat of resort quality, and our family will enjoy it for many years to come. I never would have dreamed of having a waterfall in my backyard, but Landon made that dream a reality.
Both Landon and Joe were not only talented but also friendly and personable, which made the process such a pleasure. Joe and the crew were incredibly attentive and meticulous with every detail, we were amazed watching them work. They are truly artists. Every rock, every square inch of the yard was placed with care and precision. The crew's work ethic was also unmatched: the team showed up bright and early every day, often before 8 AM, and worked until 5:30 or 6. In less than two weeks, they completely transformed our yard.
Our gratitude cannot be stressed enough. We are so grateful for their dedication, vision, and personalized service. This project has been the best investment in our house we've ever made, and we cannot recommend LCM enough!

Water features during water restrictions?
In dry climates like Colorado, homeowners are increasingly concerned about water usage during drought conditions and seasonal restrictions. What many people don’t realize, however, is that a properly built recirculating water feature typically uses far less water than a traditional lawn, especially thirsty turf varieties like Kentucky bluegrass. Research from Colorado water and turf experts shows that Kentucky bluegrass lawns often require 24–26 inches of irrigation per growing season to stay lush and green in the Front Range climate. In contrast, a professionally installed pond or waterfall continuously recirculates the same water rather than constantly consuming new water. At LCM Outdoor Living, water features are built with long-term durability and efficiency in mind, including high-quality liners, reliable plumbing systems, and construction methods designed to minimize leaks, evaporation loss, and the need for frequent full drainings. In many cases, homeowners discover their lawn irrigation system consumes dramatically more water over the course of a Colorado summer than their pond or waterfall ever will. Thoughtful design, efficient circulation, and durable construction allow water features to remain a responsible and sustainable part of outdoor living, even in an arid climate.

Water-efficient gardening
When we think about creating beautiful landscapes that thrive with minimal water, xeriscape landscaping comes to mind. We’re passionate about designing gardens that not only capture the eye but also conserve precious resources. By focusing on native and drought-resistant plants, we create outdoor spaces that flourish under the sun’s warm embrace. Imagine a garden where vibrant colors and diverse textures come together, all while using considerably less water than traditional landscaping. Our approach to water-efficient gardening begins with soil preparation and smart plant selection. We carefully choose plants that naturally thrive in the local climate, guaranteeing they need minimal irrigation. Mulching plays a critical role as well; it locks in moisture, reduces evaporation, and keeps plant roots cool. As we lay out each garden, we consider practical aspects like slope and drainage, designing a space where water is used wisely and efficiently. Finally, we incorporate innovative irrigation systems that make every drop count. Drip irrigation and rainwater harvesting are just some of the methods we employ to promote sustainability. These systems deliver water directly to the roots, minimizing waste and maximizing impact. As we shape these landscapes, we’re not just creating gardens, we’re developing ecosystems that celebrate the beauty of nature while respecting the environment.
The essential role of xeriscape landscaping in sustainable living
Xeriscape landscaping is more than just a trend; it’s a significant component of sustainable living, especially in areas prone to drought. At LCM Outdoor Living, we’re passionate about creating beautiful, water-efficient landscapes that not only enhance the aesthetics of your property but also contribute positively to the environment. By minimizing water usage, we can help conserve this precious resource while still achieving stunning landscape designs. When we adopt xeriscape principles, we’re committing to a more eco-friendly approach. Here’s how we do it: 1) We select drought-resistant plants that thrive in the local climate. 2) We incorporate soil amendments that improve water retention. 3) We design efficient irrigation systems that reduce water waste. 4) We use mulch to maintain soil moisture and temperature. These strategies guarantee that our landscapes are not only visually appealing but also sustainable. Serving the Colorado Springs area, we recognize the unique challenges and opportunities presented by the local environment. Our award-winning landscape design focuses on creating outdoor spaces that are both functional and beautiful, while also being mindful of water conservation. By choosing xeriscape landscaping, you’re not only investing in your property but also in the future of our planet. Let’s work together to create a landscape that reflects your values and enhances your outdoor living experience.

We moved to a new build last summer and started with a literal blank slate of sand and a serious water run off.
Landon took the time to assess our needs and work with us in designing a yard that was functional and beautiful and water friendly. We'll continue to add and grow this oasis and will definitely come back to this company for that work.
