The First Step in Designing Your Landscape
Your first step is an on-site meeting and consultation. This is where the fun begins! A walk-through on your property will reveal important aspects for your project, such as house aesthetics, soil type, sun and shade spots (and where you want to minimize or maximize their effects). You can also discuss your own ideas and receive helpful insight for your landscape potential.
After that, preliminary and conceptual plans will be drawn. This is where all your dreaming and scheming come alive on paper. Communication is key here! Be willing to ask questions, make suggestions, and even disagree with an idea. This is your home; the more feedback you can give, the better your finished landscape will be.
Final plans will be presented based on the feedback provided. All hardscape elements and plantings will be included as well as constructions details.
Next comes the bid documentation. Bid documentation is where all your plans, services and estimates are assessed before finalization. Your budget is important and will be respected! This step will show how to maximize your project goals within your parameters.
Once that process is complete, your project officially begins! Now you can sit back and enjoy watching your dream landscape come to life. You can relax knowing all the details are being managed for you, since you were involved every step of the way.
After completion you will have follow-ups at three-month, six-month and one-year intervals to make sure the landscape stays at its finest.
Now that you know the process, what will you create?

“I seldom write reviews, but am making an exception in Susie Thompson's (of
Susie Landscape Designs) case. I want to get the word out to everyone
regarding the exceptional service I have received from Susie… I have to say
that I am pleased beyond words at the results of her hard work and
dedication. The yard is now a place of pleasure and pride in our house, and
friends/ guests never fail to compliment us on how beautiful it looks...
Bottom line, Susie (Landscape Designs) will be the right choice for anyone
looking at a landscaping project... Her work is nothing short of
perfection, and her service is always friendly and polite.”
