You know that you need some help with your home’s lawn and landscape, whether it’s because your front yard needs work, your side yard needs retaining walls or you just want a beautiful landscape to enjoy and enhance your home’s appearance. But how do you decide which landscape company you should hire? This post will help you find the right full-service landscape experts to do a great job at design and install of your home’s new or upgraded flower beds, lawn care, and hardscaping
7 Qualities To Consider When Hiring a Landscaping Company
1. Experience
A landscaping service that doesn’t have much experience may not do as good of a job as you need or may take significantly longer, requiring the billing of more hours for the project while costing you more in the long run because they didn’t do part of your project properly.
2. Reputation
A company that has a solid reputation has already shown its dedication to quality service, design, and installation. This makes it easier to trust them to do a good job on your front yard, retaining walls, or flower beds. Ask around for recommendations from friends and family or check online reviews.
3. Communication
If a landscape company has poor communications, it can impact a lot of different areas of your project. You’ll have a hard time checking up on the progress of special item orders, seeing how the project is going, disputing a billing error, or getting a customer service issue resolved.
4. Services
Do the landscape experts provide all the services you’re looking for? If not, you may end up having to juggle multiple landscape companies while trying to complete your project, and it may take longer because of these issues. Try to find a landscaper that can complete your entire project in-house.
5. Work Quality
It doesn’t matter how wonderful those new retaining walls look now if they fall down in a year or two. One way you can check this with a landscape company you’re going to hire is by driving by their older projects and see how they’ve held up over the years, taking into account owner damage and negligence.
6. Flexibility
If you’re not comfortable having a lawn and landscape company working at your house while you’re on vacation if you need to change the design a little before work begins, if you need some light accommodation, the landscape company should be happy to work with you as much as possible.
7. Customer Service
If something goes wrong on your project, knowing that the landscape experts have a solid customer service department and policy to follow up with can give you peace of mind and provide options if something doesn’t work out. Don’t be afraid to check out online reviews to help review this aspect.
