There are many details to consider when planning a custom landscape; establishing a good relationship with your landscape contractor will pave the way for a successful project.
At Adrian Landscape, we want you to have the confidence that comes from “knowing what to expect.” Below you’ll find an overview of the steps that generally make up a custom landscape project.
Initial Meeting and Site Assessment
We’ll come to your location to observe the property, make notes, and offer our advice where it’s helpful. This gives you a chance to “test the chemistry,” and decide if the elements exist for a strong working relationship. It also gives us a chance to determine if our skills are well suited for your project.
Creating a design
We always start a custom landscape project with a plan. This takes the form of a unique Landscape Design. After the initial session, the design process may include 2-4 additional meetings. These meetings allow you to provide input for the design, from concept through detailed working drawings. The last design meeting can be held at a nursery, where we make the final plant selection. This allows you to see and evaluate these plants first hand, prior to installation.
Landscape designs start at $500, and the price can vary based on the size and complexity of the site.If your project is simply an addition, color planting or smaller job (one that wouldn’t require a landscape design), please visit our ( Maintenance Division ).
Establishing a budget, submitting a bid, creating a timeline After the landscape design has been completed, we will submit a detailed proposal which outlines all costs associated with completing your project. Your specific budget will determine whether the work is done all at once, or in multiple phases.
