Testing Refresh Procedure

Does anyone have a standard procedure for doing db refreshes that they'd be willing to share? I'd be going from Production down to test and development dbs. These were usually done by a co-worker who recently moved on to greener pastures. He didn't leave any desk procedures, so I've been winging it, but it seems like I'm making it harder than it needs to be.  

Should I drop relevant schemas before importing, so it's basically from scratch?  

I know the pastures guy would essentially do two imports, one just of table structures - no rows - then one just of data. Does that seem like a sound procedure?
