Landscaping…what value! But you first have to appreciate all the factors.
Have you ever asked yourself why landscaping costs so much? Many homeowners are shocked when they receive a bid so I hope to shed a little light on the subject.
Landscapers Bring Their Shop to You
Landscapers, as well as many other professional services, are in the business of selling labor hours. However, in most instances, you take your car to the mechanic or your clothes to the dry cleaner. However, landscapers must bring their shop to your home. Rather than working in a predictable environment, they must juggle a variety of weather, soil conditions, equipment access route problems and material changes daily all while managing a sequence of events that is most efficient for the homeowner’s project.
Did You Know?
Landscaping is a growing investment. According to real estate experts, a well designed landscape can easily increase the value of your home by 12 to 15% according to Total Mortgage. Landscaping can enhance your home’s largest living space as well as adding dollar value to your property. The popularity of outdoor kitchens, fireplaces and water features may all contribute to the lifestyle benefits that come with this wise investment.
Why Hire a Professional?
Landscape design and implementation takes knowledge, experience, resources and a time commitment that a homeowner simply does not have.
