What People Say

FAQs

You should hire a quality landscape designer because we have the knowledge and expertise to create a beautiful, functional, and sustainable outdoor space that meets your specific needs and preferences. A quality landscape designer can help navigate the many options and decisions involved in landscape design, from plant selection and hardscape materials to irrigation systems and outdoor lighting. We also help create a cohesive design that integrates the various elements of the outdoor space, such as the lawn, garden beds, and patio. In addition, we choose plants and materials that are appropriate for the local climate and soil conditions, ensuring that the landscape will thrive for years to come. Ultimately, working with a quality landscape designer can save time, money, and stress, while creating an outdoor space that enhances the beauty and functionality of your home.

A clear and carefully thought through landscape design is a great first step prior to breaking ground on installation. The national average cost for a landscape design varies from $2,600 to $4,500 with some landscape architects charging upwards $11,000 for residential projects.

While we design for a vast variety of parcels, we charge $1,900 for our 2-D package for parcels in the ballpark of 5,000 sq ft. This is our most popular option. The package consists of 2 different design options and includes 1 revision. If a design merely is desired for either the front or backyard, the price drops to $1,600.

Having a design is not always essential when it comes to landscaping. For instance, if the landscape regions are already established, it is possible to have a detailed discussion about the installation items during a preliminary site walk. This can help to create an estimate that is based on the specific needs of the site. However, it is important to note that even when a design is not necessary, it is still advisable to work with a qualified professional to ensure that the installation is done correctly and to prevent any potential problems from arising.

In cases where a design is not necessary, the professional landscaper can rely on their expertise and experience to recommend appropriate plants, hardscaping materials, and other installation items that will best suit the site. A preliminary site walk also provides an opportunity to identify any potential challenges or limitations that may affect the installation process, such as poor soil quality or limited space.

It is important to emphasize that while a design may not be required, it is still critical to work with a qualified professional to ensure that the installation is done correctly and to prevent any issues from arising in the future. A professional landscaper can provide valuable guidance on the best practices for installation and maintenance, as well as recommendations for ongoing care and upkeep of the landscape. By working with a professional, homeowners can ensure that their landscape investment is both beautiful and functional for many years to come.

A 2D architectural grade landscape design is often considered superior to a 3D rendering because it provides a clearer and more precise representation of the landscape design. 2D designs use scaled drawings to show the location of all the elements in the landscape, such as plants, hardscaping features, and irrigation systems. This level of detail is critical in ensuring that the design is accurate and meets the client’s needs. On the other hand, 3D renderings can be less precise and may not show all the details necessary for accurate installation. While 3D renderings can provide a more realistic visual representation of the design, they may not show the same level of detail as a 2D design, leading to potential issues during installation. Therefore, a 2D architectural grade landscape design is typically preferred by professionals as it offers more accurate and detailed information for a successful installation.

Yes, drip irrigation is necessary for drought-tolerant plant schemes to ensure that the plants look their best. While drought-tolerant plants are naturally adapted to survive with minimal water, they still require sufficient moisture to look their best and thrive. Drip irrigation systems provide a slow and steady supply of water directly to the root zone, which ensures that the plant receives the necessary moisture to look healthy and vibrant.

Furthermore, drought-tolerant plants can become stressed and lose their vigor if they are not watered properly. This can result in a lackluster appearance, with stunted growth, yellowing or brown leaves, and fewer blooms. Drip irrigation can help prevent these issues by providing the plant with a consistent source of moisture, which helps maintain the plant’s health and overall appearance.

Additionally, using a drip irrigation system helps to conserve water, which is especially important in drought-prone areas. The slow and steady application of water provided by drip irrigation reduces water waste due to runoff and evaporation, making it an environmentally sustainable irrigation option.

In summary, while drought-tolerant plants are designed to be water-efficient, they still require sufficient moisture to look their best and thrive. Drip irrigation systems provide a precise and efficient means of delivering the necessary water to the root zone of plants, promoting their growth and overall health, which in turn, results in a vibrant and attractive landscape.

Soil amendment is rarely necessary when planting plants because most soils naturally contain sufficient nutrients and minerals to support plant growth. Additionally, excessive soil amendment can disrupt the soil’s natural balance, causing issues such as nutrient imbalances and drainage problems. It is recommended to only amend soil if soil tests indicate a specific nutrient deficiency or if the soil is compacted and requires loosening. In most cases, adding a layer of organic mulch can provide sufficient nutrients and improve soil structure without the need for extensive soil amendment.

Drip delivers water directly to the root zone, minimizing water loss due to evaporation or runoff. Drip irrigation also allows for precise control over the amount of water delivered, ensuring that plants receive only the amount they need. By minimizing water usage, drip irrigation helps conserve water and can save money on water bills. Additionally, because the water is delivered directly to the root zone, there is less risk of fungal diseases developing on plant leaves or stems, which can be caused by overhead watering methods. Overall, drip irrigation is an efficient and effective way to deliver water to plants while minimizing water waste and promoting healthy plant growth.

We are a boutique-sized construction company, and we are deeply committed to our ongoing projects. We take great care to avoid overextending our workload. We provide complimentary site visits to personally assess the site, with the aim of minimizing unexpected challenges. It’s important to clarify that this does not encompass free landscape consultations.

We assess the necessity of on-site visits based on the preliminary project information we have gathered. This enables us to ensure that the expected scope is likely to align with our core business objectives. However, due to time constraints, we cannot always guarantee that we will be able to schedule a site visit. There may be instances where properties are located outside our current service area or where the scope does not align with our primary focus.

An on-site consultation with Artscape Gardens goes beyond a simple site visit. While a site visit is a free service focused on assessing the property for a clear construction scope of work, our on-site consultation is a comprehensive, paid service designed to provide you with personalized expertise, efficient project planning, and tangible benefits.

As a reputable landscape construction company, Artscape Gardens has developed a streamlined process to ensure that we fully understand your requirements and deliver the best results possible. Our commitment to excellence has led us to introduce a flat consultative fee for on-site visits, which we believe provides added value to clients like you.

The consultative fee for a one-hour on-site visit is $300 which will be applied as a full credit towards the cost of a design or installation. During this dedicated time, I will focus on evaluating your property and engaging with you to understand your unique preferences, ideas, and objectives. I will draw upon my expertise in landscape design and construction to offer tailored recommendations and creative concepts that align perfectly with your vision.

The consultative fee is an investment in delivering the highest quality service to our clients.
To demonstrate our appreciation for choosing us as your landscape partner, we offer the following benefits:

1. Personalized Expertise: By investing in the consultative fee, you ensure a focused and thorough evaluation of your project.

2. Efficient Project Planning: The time spent during the on-site visit allows us to gain a deeper understanding of your project, enabling us to create a more accurate scope of work and pricing.

3. Credit Towards Installation: Should you proceed with our design or installation services, the consultative fee will be fully credited to your project’s installation scope. This credit will directly reduce the total cost of your landscape design or construction project, making the fee a valuable and beneficial part of our collaboration.
