Getting Started on Your Landscape
GETTING STARTED ON YOUR PERSONAL LANDSCAPE PROJECT:
Take a good look at your home and make note of trees, shrubs, other plants and assets you may
want to preserve and incorporate into your new landscape.
Look at what direction your new landscape will be facing. What type of sun or shade will it get?
Consider what time of day you might be using your new addition.
Determine what it is you want. Do you envision an "outdoor living area," with an outdoor kitchen,
a firepit, seating, or perhaps a relaxing water feature? Are you looking for something to freshen up
the front of your home? Or perhaps your goal is to address a problem area - such as a drainage
issue. Steps? Lighting? Shade? Make a "must have list" and a "wish list."
Determine the size of the area to be included, and an estimated amount you want to spend.
Fill out an Inquiry form. Answer as many questions as you can about what you want the designer
to do.
The designer will give you a call after receiving the Inquiry Form, usually within 24-48 hours. We
will set up a time to meet with you at your home or business for a FREE consultation. From this
meeting, the designer will create a design and proposal for your new landscape. (This usually
takes 1-2 weeks).
When your design is completed a meeting is set up at the Nursery for you to review your project
and plants chosen. (Please have all parties responsible and able to make a decision present for this
review.)
Once your decision is made to move forward with your project, a deposit of 35% is required. Your
project is scheduled on the job board at this time. We will keep you updated on when your project
is scheduled to begin. Another 25% is due on the date they are to begin the job. The balance is
due upon completion of your project.
(Please understand that weather plays a major factor in getting jobs completed - we apologize if a
delay is necessary due to weather conditions)
