What you should know about doing a project with us!
During our initial meeting we will look at your site and discuss your ideas
and budget. I will share my ideas and vision with you.
Depending on your site, we will discuss many practical issues such as:
- Grading
- Drainage
- Traffic flow (cars and people)
- Parking
- Winter use
- Hardscapes (walks, steps, retaining walls, patios, fire pits)
- Location and size of plant beds, lighting, irrigation , maintenance,
etc.
Design is extremely important
I like to focus on practicality and aesthetics.
- With a strong knowledge of plants and trees, I will plan and plant in the proper conditions and space accordingly. We want your landscape to mature nicely over the coming years and decades.
- We will discuss your level of involvement with your landscape and design
so that you know what maintenance needs to be done in the future.
- Watering needs of plants and turf are addressed. (I prefer to use
native and low water plants when practical.)
- We then formulate a design or plan and agree on what work needs to be
done.
- We will schedule your project and keep in touch.
- Once we start your
project we generally stay on your site until it is completed.
