What is the most important feature of a landscape?

Why engage a professional, independent landscape designer?
  1. A full set of design plans will enable you to ‘shop around’ for the most suitable contractor for the job. All contractors and suppliers will be quoting from the same plans.
  2. Landscaping companies may charge more for a job when building plans are not available, and they may build something you don’t like. Design plans tell the contractor exactly what the job entails, and they can bid accordingly.
  3. If you are a DIYer you will be able to build your new garden for a much-reduced price versus what a contractor would charge.
  4. If the landscaping plans are to be carried out over several years, the design plans ensure continuity.
  5. As a professional designer, I will design your new garden to be attractive and functional, and to meet the demands and requirements of your own lifestyle.
  6. The planting plan is carefully composed to take into account soil type and climatic conditions, and reduce garden maintenance.
  7. As an independent designer I am working only for you. I am not working for a plant supplier or a landscaping company. I am not interested in selling you plants, decks or paving. My only agenda is to design a garden that specifically suits your needs and desires.
