What is your vision for the project?
Your landscaper should know exactly what you want from your new landscape design. Would you like to be able get outside to relax more? Are you interested in entertaining a crowd of friends several times a year? Do you want a design that brings you joy each time you look out your window? Whatever your dream is, the landscape company should ask you detailed questions, so they’ll know exactly what you’d like.
How much maintenance are you willing to put into your landscape design?
Are you someone who loves being out in your yard for hours every weekend? Would you be open to paying someone to perform regular maintenance like pruning, planting, and weeding? Or do you want minimal maintenance when it comes to your landscape? A good landscape design company will ask thoughtful questions to find out exactly what and how often you want to maintain your property and will be clear about the cost and physical labor it will take to perform regular upkeep on it.
How is your property laid out?
You could have the most attractive outdoor design in the world, but if the sun will be setting directly in your eyes as you sit enjoying it, or it’s located in a space that is hard for people to get to, it won’t do you much good. A good landscape design firm will perform a thorough survey of your property, taking into consideration factors such how you can best view the colors of each season and which parts of your property lend to good traffic flow, comfortable sitting areas, or eye-catching hardscape installations.
