Guest Post: Things you should know about Landscape Maintenance ...

Landscape Maintenance

You have just returned from a three month round the world cruise and your garden is in a mess with overgrown trees, shrubs, plants and the grass is up to your knees. You have three choices:

• Do nothing
• Role your sleeves up, get the gardening tools out and get cracking!
• Pay someone to do it

You choose the later and contact your local landscaping services firm who come around to inspect the garden and discuss the services they offer and how much they charge.

You have lived there for ten years and decide that now is the time to have a complete re-designs of the garden.

The company have many years experience and explain that they can discuss your requirements and put together a set of plans to re-design the garden incorporating all the features that you require such as a garden pool, decking area, lawn and flower borders. They even have a horticulturalist that can advise you on the most suitable types of flowers to provide colour all year round.

Not only can they advice you, but they have an experienced team of staff who can do all the work. The landscape maintenance service they provide covers the following: -

• drawing up a design of the garden
• lay paving
• construction of stone walls, install fencing, water features, build barbeque area, decking, supply and erect garden shed etc
• cutting down trees, prepare ground for laying turf and creating flower borders to then lay turf and fill borders with plants and flowers.

Basically, the landscape maintenance firm can deal with the whole process from designing the garden to creating it and then enter into a contract with you to maintain the garden on a regular basis i.e. mow the lawn, trim the lawn edges, top dress the lawn, weed the borders, prune shrubs and replace plants as and when required. An added benefit is that they would bring all their own garden tools, lawn mower and supplies with them when they come to maintain the garden. Obviously you can then reimburse them for the cost of the supplies.

Yes, you could do all this yourself, but think of the time it would have taken you to complete all the work. By getting a landscape maintenance firm in to do the work, you know that they will undertake the garden re-design in a timely manner and to an excellent standard.

So, next time you are thinking of having something done to your garden, put down the shovel, and take off the gloves, and call a landscape expert to do all the dirty work for you.
