A quick and easy checklist to keep in mind when searching for your structural landscaper!
Perhaps you have purchased and working on an investment property? Or designing and building your ideal home? Finding the perfect team or individual can be difficult – so we have put together a list of services and experiences you should look for in a professional. Finding that suitable match for your structural landscaping needs can make all the difference.
But first… what does a structural landscaper contractor do?
This usually depends on the size of the business, their resources, and their years of experience. A small and independent business might concentrate on small projects like pathways, timber frames, and decks – along with generic landscaping services like managing and maintaining your garden, assist with planting or installing lawn drainage and sprinkler systems. Larger structural businesses focus on the construction of external landscape features, and non-habitable structures. However if asked, most companies will perform soft-scape landscaping if required.
