Searching for a landscape service for your property? Here are few things that you should keep in mind - the first being not all landscape services companies are created equal.
We have an inside joke at NKO…”When you have been disappointed by the rest …call the BEST! NKO routinely get calls from homeowners and property managers who are dissatisfied with the results of their current landscape and often they are paying a fair amount for service.
Care for your property should be something to take seriously. After all, it provides enjoyment, beauty, effects property value and can save (or cost) you money on energy and water.
If you decide to hire a landscape service, make sure you get the right one for you. Different properties have different needs for their landscapes. Some simply want someone who will mow the lawn and fertilize it on occasion. Others want perfect yards with lush lawns and weed-free flowerbeds.
If all you are looking for is basic lawn mowing and maybe some leaf raking and debris clean up, then the neighborhood kid who mows lawns is probably landscape service enough for you. And that is just fine. It helps a young kid learn the value of working for her or his money, and you have an easier time of caring for your lawn.
If you like to have a nice yard, but do not want to do anything with it yourself, then a more full-service operation is probably what you need in the way of landscape maintenance.
When choosing who will take care of your landscape maintenance needs, the first thing you should do is seek out a reputable company. A reputable company is one that has reliable references, and one that has a satisfied customer base.
Another thing to look for in a landscape maintenance service is the equipment. Does it look to be in good shape? You want a company that takes good care of its equipment; that shows that they are more likely to take good care of your yard.
Do not necessarily go with the cheapest service. The cheapest may not always be the best deal. If you are habitually dissatisfied with the cheaper work that may affect you in ways that make it worth it to pay more for landscape maintenance that is of higher quality.
Find a company that cares about customer service. Companies that do not care about customer service will probably not do a good job on your yard.
You should look for a service that takes pride in its work. If the company says it specializes in lawn care ask if they guarantee their results.
Look for a company that has a “sustainable” approach to maintenance. The “right plant in the right place” is a way of looking at landscaping in a modern view. This approach will reduce the use of precious water, plant native to your climate and reduce the amount of additives to save money and the environment.
