Our Approach

A Process That Thrives

We are dedicated to serving local governments, commercial businesses, and homeowners through our thoughtful yet functional landscape architectural services. Our landscape architects and designers marry form and function, transforming outdoor spaces into places of purpose and enjoyment. 

The first objective of landscape architecture is to develop a sense of place—it should draw people into the space, whether that’s your friends and family, the local community, or your clients. Next, we incorporate codes, regulations, and design best practices, in collaboration with design team members, to meet municipal standards.

Even after the design phase, our landscape architects and designers remain by your side. From the first conceptual drawing to construction observation, our processes seek to make your vision a reality, bring people to the space, and leave a thriving landscape that lasts for years to come.

What We Do

Creating Spaces Where You Want to Be Today and Tomorrow

Landscaping is not an afterthought for us—it’s at the forefront. We imagine how people will interact with the space, how they may live, eat, and play. We consider the way sunlight moves across the space, where rainwater drains, and how plants will grow over time. Soil quality, garden beds, gathering areas, walkways, irrigation, and lighting all work together to form a complete, beautiful outdoor design.

Beautiful spaces create common ground where people peacefully interact with each other, whether their interactions are recreational, commercial, or neighborly. We balance the natural features of the area with your goals to provide a design that brings everyday enjoyment and fulfills your vision. Our team believes a well-designed landscape is the foundation upon which a successful project—and a successful community—is built.

Problem-Solving

Every site or space is different—its terrain, soil, sunlight, and trees present both opportunities and challenges. Some characteristics are natural, while others are man-made or emerge after reviewing the municipal code. Often, form and function come into conflict. Our job is to bring harmony to both.

We strive to understand every site through meticulous research and discussions with you and, if needed, local officials and community stakeholders. Our landscape architects and designers possess a combination of skills to best suit your vision, ranging from freehand sketching and building digital 3D models or assessing soil quality and selecting the right tree for the right place. These tools help you visualize how your new outdoor space will look and feel—and how it will solve the challenges you face now. The end result is a space that efficiently achieves our client’s needs and fulfills the community’s standards.

Serving Your Project

Our landscape architects and designers create designs for your home, municipal, or commercial project, such as retail centers, industrial sites, and residential neighborhoods. From cozy garden retreats and family-friendly backyards to custom park designs and landscapes that spotlight native plants, we can provide thoughtful designs that will bring your vision to life! 

Our approach starts by assessing the space’s existing vegetation and natural resources to practically design around what we wish to preserve. Our team provides concepts and designs that start from the soil and grow to the height of the tallest trees. We also coordinate materials and features—whether custom-built or sourced from trusted manufacturers—to make the most of your investment. Throughout the process, we offer detailed drawings, 3D perspectives, and even drone flythroughs so you can “walk through” your new space before construction begins.

How We Are Different

Our landscape architects and designers provide several specialized services that result in resilient, beautiful outdoor spaces tailored to your needs and vision. Whether it’s making use of the land’s natural assets, sketching out ideas and plans, or handling the logistics, we are passionate about enhancing the space to its full potential through landscape design.

What Our Clients Say About Us


I have been pleased to work with JBPro on many successful jobs, from minor subdivisions, gated residential communities, to student rental projects encompassing full city blocks. I have been extremely impressed with their team approach to value engineer our projects. I can’t say enough how invaluable our relationship with JBPro has become–they seem to find ways to help us achieve the impossible.

We have worked with JBPro for many years. They have been an important part of many of our projects’ success and the quality of their work has always been excellent. We have relied on their strong engineering expertise and continue to be extremely pleased with their knowledge, teamwork with our staff, and ability to integrate their drawing packages with our team. We recommend, without reservation, JBPro to any client seeking great results and fantastic teamwork.

Since we started working with JBPro, they have been an instrumental part of our team. Through all aspects of the project, they are quick to respond, knowledgeable, and willing to work through any issues as they arise. We value our relationship with JBPro and everything they bring to our projects.

I’ve used many great surveying companies over the years, but no one responds as quickly as JBPro. Their work is excellent, and I always can trust them to make our deadlines.

For over 30 years, we have been privileged to experience JBPro’s dedication and professionalism. They are the hardest working engineering company in North Central Florida with an uncompromising commitment to getting it right. Their team is always up for the challenge of creating beautiful and successfully built environments in our area.

I’ve worked with JBPro for almost 15 years, and they have designed numerous successful projects for our company. They creatively solve big-picture problems and detail-oriented issues, using their deep understanding of local codes and their close connections with the planners who enforce them. This gives our team the ability to negotiate solutions that make our projects look great while satisfying regulations in a cost-effective way.

We have provided transportation support services to JBPro for many years and supported their efforts on numerous development projects throughout Florida.  Their company maintains the highest professional standards of quality work and timely delivery of reports or final products to their clients. We know the best interests of the client will always be the focus of their work product. When asked for engineering company referrals in North Florida, we always recommend JBPro.

Working with JBPro and their staff is always a pleasure. They handle every project with a sense of professionalism and a collaborative spirit. I’ve worked with their team for over 8 years on countless projects and can say without reservation that they are reliable and make every client feel like a priority.

JBPro was integral in developing the 4-restaurant anchored Colonnade at Gateway Crossing. They surveyed, master planned and permitted the entire 28-acre mixed-use development. Their relationship with local, state, and federal agencies and their understanding of the site development approval process was invaluable. JBPro took a holistic and cost-effective approach and proved extremely responsive when providing us ongoing site layouts as we developed, leased, and sold our development parcels. I highly recommend the JBPro team and would not hesitate to use them again.

Over the last 30 years, we have developed hundreds of projects in over 40 states. We have literally hired and/or supervised multiples of hundreds of engineering firms in the process of creating and developing these projects. In that connection, and based on our experience, I would like to clearly endorse JBPro as “the best of the best.” In short – Jay and his team are all phenomenal and I cannot recommend JBPro highly enough. They are the best I have seen. Hire them. (I sure will!)”
