Design & Build Landscaping

When a customer inquires about new landscaping ideas, there is a certain level of design and planning capabilities that are needed to demonstrate and visualize their dream. In this specific example (see picture), the customer wanted a cleaned up front yard for parking and a laid back backyard with sand, palm trees, hammocks and a fire pit to enjoy views of the water. They also wanted to clean up the sides of the yard with low water plants and a plethora of color (does this sound appealing?).

Of course, the next question is always cost and protecting their investment. Only companies that have proper design capabilities and an installation and maintenance division can rightfully answer these questions when they are addressed without consulting a third party. With a budget and a plan in place, the home owner knows they have a vision and can "phase in" the new landscaping over a couple of years, knowing where they are going. This vision is critical so if you intend on doing this, make sure you take a look at your place and contact an experienced and capable company (Reef Tropical) to help you re-do your yard to achieve your Tropical Paradise!
