Your questions answered about garden landscape services near you

What is garden landscaping?

Garden landscaping is the process of changing the visible features of a garden, yard or land.

These changes can include living elements like grass, trees and flowers or non-living elements like stone, concrete, soil or water.

It turns messy areas into functional and relaxing outdoor spaces. Whether you want an outdoor play area, an outdoor dining area, or a vegetable garden, a garden landscaper can help.

What do garden landscapers do?

Garden landscapers carefully design and rearrange an outdoor space's living and non-living elements.

Your garden landscaper will start by discussing your needs and intended use. Then, they create a design that considers factors such as soil conditions, slope, terrain, and climate.

Once you agree on the design, they can install vegetation, trees, grass, living walls, patios, etc.

How much do landscape gardeners charge?

The size/complexity of your project, the materials, prep and experience level of your landscape gardener can affect the daily rate.

Whether you need new turf laying, hardscaping, or drainage systems will also affect the cost.

What is the difference between a gardener and a landscape gardener?

A landscape gardener focuses on the design and layout of your garden's living and non-living elements (including hard materials).

It's essential to determine whether you need a landscaper or a gardener.

A local gardener may be all you need if your garden needs some TLC and no alternations.
