Every exceptional outdoor environment begins with a thoughtful vision and a team committed to bringing it to life for years to come. Whether you're creating a new outdoor living space or transforming an existing property, your investment should continue growing in beauty, function, and value with every passing season.
At High Prairie Outdoors & Pools, that's the purpose behind the Legacy Program.
As the nation's only Class-1 Certified Outdoor Living Contractor, we design, build, and care for complete outdoor environments through one proven system. Working alongside your landscape designer in Kansas City, Missouri, you'll experience a collaborative process where every decision supports your long-term vision, from the initial Discovery Meeting through ongoing Estate Stewardship.
Unlike the traditional approach of treating design, construction, and maintenance as separate services, the Legacy Program brings every phase together under one trusted team. Our High Prairie Pros self-perform 95 to 98 percent of every project, providing exceptional craftsmanship, consistent communication, and a seamless experience from Discovery through Continued Care.
The result is more than a completed project. It's an outdoor environment thoughtfully designed for the way you live today and continuously cared for to become more beautiful, more functional, and more valuable for generations to come.
The Three Phases of the Legacy Program
1. Discovery
Every successful outdoor environment begins with understanding how you want to live.
Your Discovery Meeting is an opportunity for our team to learn about your goals, evaluate your property's architecture, grading, soils, drainage, and existing landscape, and uncover opportunities that support your long-term vision. Together, we'll create a plan where every element works together as one complete outdoor environment, not a collection of separate projects.
2. Implementation
With a thoughtful plan in place, our High Prairie Pros bring your vision to life.
As the nation's only Class-1 Certified Outdoor Living Contractor, we build with the craftsmanship, precision, and attention to detail that define the Legacy Program. Because nearly every aspect of construction is completed in-house, your project benefits from consistent quality, dependable communication, and one team that understands every detail from start to finish.
3. Continued Care
Construction is only one phase of your property's story.
Through Estate Stewardship, we continue caring for your outdoor environment long after installation is complete. Fine gardening, irrigation management, seasonal enhancements, pool care, landscape improvements, and ongoing evaluations help your property remain healthy, beautiful, and true to its original vision while continuing to improve year after year.

The High Prairie Process:
From Discovery Through Estate Stewardship,
Every Step Supports Your Legacy
Our processes create customized solutions to help you master the art of the experience-driven lifestyle. This is what to expect when you work with us on Design/Build projects or all-inclusive Maintenance:
Get In Touch
Fill out our online form to get started. We'll be in touch to discuss the details of your project to make sure we're a good fit for you. If so, we'll set up your Discovery Meeting and provide a pricing guide to help you know what to expect.
Discovery Meeting
This is a free meeting at our design studio, where you'll select a design package. You'll have an opportunity to meet your designer and share details about your unique design style. We'll learn about your priorities and preferences as we help you discover your many options and possibilities. At this time, we'll collect half of the design fee.
Site Analysis
The Site Analysis breaks down the three pillars of memory making: how you relax, play, and connect. It includes measurements, drainage and grading considerations, architectural and existing element analysis, soil analysis, and a review of design opportunities, all seen through the lens of your three pillars.
Concept Reveal Meeting
At our studio or remotely, this is where you'll review your detailed design and discuss material options with your designer. If there are budget considerations, we can discuss phasing the project as needed.
Final Design Reveal and Proposal Presentation
We'll finalize the materials and order your selections upon your approval. Your Prairie Power Team will create a project plan, complete with milestones and target tasks. As we work through planning and permitting, you'll receive weekly updates, and after you sign, we'll get you on the schedule.
Crafting Your Space
The team will work diligently and according to schedule. You can track our progress and watch your landscape unfold via our project web platform.
Final Walkthrough + Ongoing Maintenance
You'll do a final walkthrough with the designer, and we will accept the final payment. You’ll learn more about our worry-free maintenance program options and we can schedule your Lawncierge project check-ins for proactive attention and monitoring of your new space.
Design, Construction, and Estate Stewardship Through One Proven System
All of our services are completed by highly skilled crews equipped with specialized tools and landscaping know-how. With stonemasons, pool builders, horticulturists, and more on our team, we can complete 95 percent of our projects completely in-house, which means you’ll enjoy a stress-free build! As certified General Contractors, we can bring in electricians and plumbers as required, eliminating the need for you to juggle multiple contractors. This is what we can do for you:
Pools & Spas
Custom pools, spas, and water features designed as part of a complete outdoor environment. Our team creates spaces for relaxation, recreation, and connection while integrating every element into a larger vision for your property. Through our Legacy Program, your aquatic environment is cared for and improved long after construction is complete. Visit our Pools page to learn more.
