Landscaping is an exciting part of designing your home and, with a great landscaping com- pany, it is easy to beautify your yard and accen- tuate the look of your property. According to the National Association of Landscape Profes- sionals, most people feel it’s important to keep their yards well-maintained. Americans place great value on professional landscaping servic- es – but how do you go about choosing the best one? Not all landscaping services are the same and you want to be sure you are work- ing with a company you can trust to do a great job and that values you as a customer. UPFRONT AND HONEST PRICING Every landscape company has a different pric- ing model. A good landscaping company will account for all known costs and will try to anticipate unexpected ones when estimating the cost of a project. The company should give you an accurate idea of project costs upfront so that there are no surprises at the end of the job. Unprofessional companies may lowball the esti- mate and then tack on a lot of extra charges for supplies, labor and more at the end. You want to be sure that you are working with a compa- ny that is giving you a straightforward price estimate before any work begins. When comparing landscaping companies, make sure to ask about potential surprises in pricing before signing on to any projects. Com- panies with a transparent pricing model may seem a little more expensive at first but often produce an end result that is high quality, meets all of your expectations and lasts for a long time. PREMIUM PRICING ENSURES OUTSTANDING RESULTS Getting professional assistance with your land- scaping can help make your ideal vision of your home and garden a reality. The benefits of hir- ing a good landscaping company far outweigh the money you might save by going with a dis- counted service. Paying premium prices means you'll be working with a company you can trust and on whose work you can depend. Here are just a few of the advantages of work- ing with a top-tier company: • Outstanding results: Top-notch companies in the landscape industry tend to cost more because they pay more to recruit and hire great employees, have added umbrella insurance to protect their companies, have a staffed book keeper and also spend money to continually train staffing. If a company goes bankrupt due to a liability or poor management/financial wherewithal, you will suffer the consequences with a job that can- not be finished or a warranty that is no longer honored. A successful company with highly skilled employees will allow for a superb finished product. • Great customer service: Quality landscap- ing companies provide exceptional customer service due to their professionalism. Great leadership generates helpful staff that will be happy to offer you assistance and infor- mation throughout the landscaping process. Trustworthiness: Choosing a landscaper with a strong reputation means you'll be working with someone you can trust. This extends all the way from offering straight- forward pricing before the job begins to tak- ing painstaking efforts to complete the job the exact way that you envisioned. Quality landscapers will be bonded and fully insured, so you won’t have to worry about any potential liability during your project. When choosing a professional landscaper, remember that companies vary widely in both expertise and approach. Look for a trusted, skilled landscaping company that will treat you with respect and be honest with you about its pricing model. You will be glad you opted for a premium company when you see the results!
