Our Process
You’ve decided on your next landscaping project, and you’re ready to hire a landscaper. Maybe you want to add a patio, create curb appeal, get a seasonal clean-up or bring a bit of nature into your yard with a custom water feature. While every landscaping company will have a slightly different approach, it is helpful to know what the typical process is and what you as the homeowner can expect.
Over our 30 years years in business, we’ve broken down our tried and true process into four parts: 1) Initial On-Site Meeting 2) Design & Proposal 3) Installation and 4) Final Walk-Through
Initial On-Site Meeting
This meeting serves a few purposes. It allows us to see the property in person, to analyze the current site conditions, take pictures and get measurements. But, the most important part of this in-person meeting is for us to learn more about you, the intended project and long-term goals for the property. Our goal is to take the time to listen and ask questions, propose ideas and offer suggestions on how to achieve your dreams while keeping your budget in mind.
This meeting is key to determining if we are a good fit and will work well together throughout the process. Some landscapers will charge for this initial meeting, and others, like us, offer this service for free.
Design & Proposal
After the initial on-site meeting, we will create a design (if needed, some jobs such as a seasonal clean-up don’t require a design) and a detailed proposal based on your input, site conditions and budget. We can provide both CAD and 3-D, full color, computer generated designs. The proposal will lay out all the details and materials needed to bring the design to life, including total cost and payment structure.
We also offer a landscape design for a fee without installation if you’re looking for a professional landscape design that you install yourself.
Installation
After the design is approved and the proposal has been accepted, we will schedule the installation and let you know how long the project should take from beginning to end.
The landscaping crew will consist of a foreman who accompanies the installation crew as they implement your design. The foreman will either be on-site or available at anytime during the process to answer any questions and solve any issues that may arise.
Final Walk-Through
Once the job is completed, the foreman will walk through the project with you to ensure that everything was completed to your satisfaction. Additional care instructions will be shared with you as needed.
