While many believe that a landscaper is nothing more than someone who comes in and mows, trims and weed eats the grass, then neatly blows everything away so no one will ever know it was there, is misinformed. People who do nothing but this are people who mow, trim and weed eat your lawn and blow the remains away.
A landscaper is someone who works with the lay of the land and the flowers of your choice to bring about a desired affect. While there is a good deal of "yard work" that is done within the realm of landscaping, there is also a great deal of gardening and hardscaping that is done as well.
The gardening part can be anything from planting flowers, trees and shrubs to pruning and replacing dead or no longer wanted plants. It can also encompass sprinkler and other types of watering systems, designing gardens out in the yard or container gardens on your patios and decks. All of these things will need to flow into an overall landscape design and can be addressed and needed and/or wanted.
People forget that your landscape might also include arbors and pergolas to driveways, irrigation issues, laying of new patios, building onto your home in the form of a deck or sunroom and numerous other ideas that can be incorporated into your overall outdoor design. These hardscape items encompass a wonderful part of you home and outdoor decor.
So the next time you think about doing something different with your yard from putting in water features such as a pond or fountain to filling in a swimming pool and turning it into an organic garden; building retaining walls to keep your yard in or another yard out to weeding and making sure your plants are healthy and happy, thank of your local landscaping company. You may be surprised at what they can do and do well!
