What Does Landscaping Cost?

We ask our clients a question to determine our design approach:

1. Would you prefer to only include those elements that fit an exact dollar fee budget?
2. Or do you want us to include all of your wish list into a concept design and cost it, and then adjust for budget?

Most people choose to include everything. And what happens then? – Sadly, it is part of the process and for some clients, they fall in love with the design and know it is exactly what they want but cannot invest that amount of money.

What happens next?

• Client’s source additional funds through re-finance
• Clients have actually decided to sell their home and move and do what they want to achieve
• Some give up and never landscape their garden
• And for most, it comes down to compromise. I work with the client to modify the design, keeping the essence of the design, but perhaps changing stone clad walls to rendered walls for example. Using different materials or reducing perhaps the paved area and increasing the grass area, to bring the budget more in line
• And for others, elements are removed, with the decision to build them into a later stage two project
