After an extensive discussion with our client and surveying the existing property, we set out by putting our clients wishes and our expertise on paper. Landscape designs are very challenging, because the decisions that are made relative to the type of planting and landscape features will be in place for a very long time. Its an expensive and time consuming process, so we are committed to make sure that our client is completely satisfied with their choices and the eventual outcome of the project. Here's where the process starts to take shape........on paper!

1. Assess your site first. Take a look around the land surrounding your home with an objective eye toward understanding sun exposure, drainage patterns, soil type and wind direction. 2. Evaluate the type and style of existing structures. Is your house built in the colonial style, or does it evoke a Mediterranean villa? Will the garages, garden sheds, and patios remain in place, or do they need enhancement or camouflage? 3. Make a list of problems with your property you would like to solve. Do you need more parking space for cars? Is the house being suffocated by overgrown planting and trees? Does your fence match your home’s design? Does your property lack natural features that add grace and beauty? 4. Ask if you can see examples of your designer’s finished work. A garden designer will create a lovely world for you, but you should carefully assess the fit between his/her vision and your needs. We strive to create the landscape of your vision, not ours. We’ll create a plan that may be installed all at once, or take months or years to unfold. It’s your choice. 5. Choose a firm that has solid credentials and satisfied customers. Flowers come and go, trees can be cut down or planted, but driveways, steps, and walkways are permanent structures. We've been in the landscape installation, planting and tree care business for more than 15 years. We’re confident we can create and install a landscape design that will beautify your home, and provide lasting pleasure year round. For a free consultation, please contact us today. |
