Selecting a Landscape Contractor



Where to Start?

Get Project Ideas

  • Look at books, magazines, and websites for landscape ideas
  • Think about what you would like in terms of Structure, Access, Aesthetics, Budget

Finding a Landscape Designer

  • Get referrals and recommendations from friends, neighbors, and family members
  • Look at contractors’ websites and online reviews
  • Find a designer that will listen and and understand your needs
  • Design Fees are a standard practice with professional landscape designers

Selecting a Landscape Contractor

  • Compare Quotes and Designs- Try to meet with at least 3 companies
  • Be sure to compare quotes ‘apples to apples’
  • Beware of a quote that is ‘too good to be true’ Use your gut feelings- A contractor that makes you feel comfortable will usually be a good experience.

Working with an Experienced Professional Landscaper

  • You will have the best outcomes with a Design/Build Company
  • Be sure the landscape company offers contracts and warranties their work
  • Change orders are a standard practice with professional landscape contractors and they protect both parties from costly misunderstandings.

Preparing for Adjustments

  • A good landscaper will plan for it ahead of time, but often unknown variables may affect your project. o Examples: Water flow, nature, weather, material pricing and availability, neighbors, associations, and government regulations.
  • A good landscape designer will use the landscape plan as a starting point, and will make adjustments based on variables and unknowns encountered on the job.
