Tips for Finding the Best Landscape Construction Services

Tips for Finding the Best Landscape Construction Services

Your landscape is a big part of your property that’s why, it should be aesthetically pleasing. In order to get the positive results that you are looking for, consider employing a garden design expert. Unfortunately, there are many people who decide to go with mediocre landscape solutions, thus wasting them a lot of money; the amount that could have been redirected elsewhere more important.

Employing a professional garden expert greatly matters. If you don’t want to waste your time, money and obtain unsatisfactory results, don’t ever disregard the ease of hiring a professional landscape construction company.

Professional

The very first tip is to go with a pro! There are too many people who are willing to cut corners when it comes to the professionals that are being sent their way. Don’t go with landscape construction services that are not good enough because there is a lot more at play.

You have to ensure that the professionals are as you want them to be. This all begins with how they are in person and how they are presenting themselves to you. Make sure they are as professional as they can be because this plays a huge role throughout the whole process.

Patient

Collaborate with the best and most patient service provider as you may come up with some changes and requests during the process. The team must be patient enough to deal with these scenarios. Some people do not pay much attention to this, after all this is not something tangible where you can gauge it immediately.

Allot time to read the reviews of their previous customers in relation to this service and what people have to say about them. Are they patient with their clients or are they always in a rush to make a quick buck?

Proven

Employ a team with a proven service because that is going to end up working in your favour. There are just several individuals who are not proven, and this can be quite frustrating. Don’t just go with any old solution.

A proven service will save you a lot of money that would otherwise have gone to waste. Don’t get stuck in this kind of rut.

Credentials

The credentials that are being presented in relation to the company should be spotless. You should be willing to take a look at them as most clients don’t until it is too late. Make sure that you do ask for them as they are often obligated to hand them over. If they are not willing to do so, take your business somewhere else.

This is a big part of the service, and they should be confident to make their credentials available. The best services are always going to be willing to do exactly this.

Experience

Landscaping requires comprehensive experience, and most people even get confused as to what the right landscaping approach is. This can cause more worries than benefits, which is never a good thing. Don’t get stuck in this miserable situation by making sure that you are going with a service provider with the right experience. Work with a reliable team with years of proven experience in this field. They should have sufficient experience to provide you excellent landscape design, as that is what matters most in the end.

Rates

The final but not the least tip is the rate. Always get an estimate before any work is done. You might be surprised to pay beyond your budget if you don’t ask the quote beforehand. Also, go for reasonable rates. There are several companies that provide high-quality service in an affordable amount. So, take time to research such companies. Now, this does not mean you should start bargaining them into the ground and then get mad when they don’t give in. There is a limit to which a company is going to remain flexible after which, the margins just don’t make sense.

Try to be reasonable (by researching) and ensure that you are willing to go down to a price that is good for both parties. You shouldn’t be making any sacrifices, but neither should they as that is not going to create good will.

These are six of the most important tips you’ll come across when finding the best landscape construction services. There are indeed many factors that come into play when you are in search for the best solution in town, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. Be sure to do enough research into the solution being presented to you. Of course, you don’t want to go with landscape construction services that are not good enough and are just going to end up becoming a real waste. Hence, keep these helpful tips in mind.


OUR REFERRALS

    We knew that we would need a landscape designer with imagination, creativity and the ability to listen to our requirements. When you came to our house you took time listening to what we wanted and the scale of the project. This was important to us, because we were on a budget and timeline. You then offered wonderful suggestions within the scope and offered details. You have transformed our featureless front garden into a beautiful space where the plantings and lovely stone features enhance the natural contours of the yard and existing trees. Our front yard is now more welcoming and complements the look of the house. You gave us a yard that is easy to maintain and and is beautiful in every season. We are extreemly happy with the quality of the workmanship, and your professional nature, and highly recommend you to all our friends. We couldn’t be happier. Thank you!

    In November 2012 we commissioned Teedo Beggs to landscape our property in Mount Macedon. The distinguishing qualities that determined our decision to go with Teedo (over other companies we had approached) were his knowledge of indigenous/native horticulture, his understanding of and familiarity with the gardens of Mount Macedon, and his ability to help us to articulate and visualize our own garden on what was a modern architectural structure on a sloping building site. The ‘landscape challenges’ Teedo took on were significant, beginning with a sharply sloping block, significant ‘drainage’ issues, and the presence of large forest eucalyptus trees that we wished to keep. Teedo was able to masterfully incorporate our desire to create a garden that would complement or enhance the sharp angular features of the architecture, protect existing vegetation, include and incorporate native/indigenous plantings, build dry rock retention walls, and provide us with a beautiful outdoor living space that we desperately needed. Teedo’s approach to his work impressed us from the outset because of his uncompromising high standards and attention to detail. Whilst the end results in mid-March may have reflected Teedo’s detailed landscape designs to a T, they far surpassed our own expectations and dreams. Our house on a slippery red slope of Mount Macedon had been transformed into a home with a truly beautiful and functional garden. We are exceedingly proud of what Teedo was able to realize and we highly recommend his work- without reservation.

    Teedo Beggs responds to each garden space as an artist, the plants are his media and the landscape is his canvas. He introduces sculptural elements through natural and constructed materials. The result is an ever-changing work of art. How do we know this? Our family was fortunate enough to be able to commission Teedo to transform our country garden into a magical place. Using existing plant forms, such as established trees he creatively introduced new excitement into the landscape. The keyhole design of the formal front lawn added a theatrical element to the entry of the property. Visitors were drawn into a green, scented walkway off the sweeping drive through rendered pillars with the promise of more beyond. This opened out into the drama of the larger garden where the eye was greeted by a sensual vista full of wonderful perfumes, colour and graduating forms that complimented the enormous Golden Elm. A wrought iron handmade bench seat embedded in a hidden position ensured a comfortable view. Visitors were then coaxed downwards to the unfolding garden scenes around the house. Beautiful features were integrated into the many gardens created on the property. A graduated fishpond with its babbling waterways was set in a ‘Fairy Garden’. A tennis wall on the court beyond was superbly engineered and constructed to appear as a ‘crumbling ruin’ from another era. A post and rail fence of cypress enclosed a kitchen garden that featured generous raised beds of vegetables, accompanied by fruit trees and red brick pathways. This was a joy to work in and allowed us to feed our family. Teedo Beggs was not only artistic in his vision and execution of his ideas, but he was very professional, sensitive to our needs as a client and respectful in the way he conducted himself and his team throughout the project. We would highly recommend him

    We have engaged Mr Beggs (Teedo) now for three different landscaping jobs at our residence in Woodend. All jobs have involved both design and construction. In respect of design, Teedo impressed us with his ability to listen and understand our requirements. This lead to a number of design ideas of which we were very pleased. In all cases we then engaged Teedo in the construction. We found his work to be both competitively priced and was completed on time as agreed, despite some minor modifications, at our initiation. The work was finished to a high standard and we have had no reservation in recommending him to our friends and colleagues.

    Being determined to make a garden from an overgrown bush block on the steep slopes of Mt. Macedon had/has it’s challenges. Luckily there is a community here of skilled garden loving and knowledgeable peoples. Most of them think that they are gifted and a few of them actually are. Teedo has an abundant and creative mind that can spit out real and never thought of options and can even more importantly manage these ideas and concepts through to a smooth and real outcome. His forte’ is structural garden design and then the project management/implementation of that design. He has an accurate and unusually quick eye for land/earth contours, levels and drainage. These lines evolve into structure, light and shade, harmony and reflections. Working with him has been a straightforward and professional affair. I have never given him a cheque without feeling pride, happiness and goodwill.
