When it comes to landscaping for your home or commercial property, there are many elements to consider. Your focus is likely to be on the aesthetics of the design and what atmosphere and look you envision. Aspects like cost, time, and quality are the things you should not have to worry about during your landscaping work. To create a pleasant experience, you should select the best landscaping company to tackle your projects. But how do you know how to choose the right company?

Here are a few clues to look for to determine whether or not you’re choosing a top landscape designer:

An Innovative Vision

The best landscape designers possess an innovative vision–a desire to continually improve their craft and break new ground. Designers who are stuck in old-fashioned methods, techniques, and ideas will not give you the beautiful, functional landscaping results you’re looking for. To understand whether a designer has such vision, it can be helpful to look through a portfolio of work. You can also determine through conversation with a landscape designer, discussing your potential project, whether the company is committed to innovation and open to new ideas.

A Can-Do Attitude

Speaking of new ideas, many times we at Insight Landscapes find that our clients have wonderful, unique ideas for landscape design they would like us to implement. Some landscape companies may be hesitant to try new things or to take on a challenge. A great landscape designer will relish it! Look for a design company with a can-do attitude; one that won’t stop until your idea comes to life.

Reliable, Efficient Work

A top landscaping company will have a history of reliability and dependability. Smart companies have a strong web presence, so a simple Google search can help you locate online customer reviews. Reviews can say so much— clients tend to leave reviews when highly satisfied or greatly dissatisfied. Reading honest reports of local landscape designers can help you see who in your area does the best work, who is the most efficient, and who provides the best value. Reviews may be a good way to measure whether a potential landscape company offers a fair price for the quality of work promised.

Fair Pricing

The cheapest landscape design companies are not necessarily the best option. While you want reasonable prices for your projects, it is important to get the best value for what you pay. A good landscape designer will be up front about the expected costs and will also demonstrate a willingness to work with you to stretch the budget as needed. In addition to the quality of work, a designer should supply you with an approximate timeline. You want to know your project will be completed swiftly and efficiently. A tighter project deadline provides a better value for your dollar.

Cutting-Edge Skills

You absolutely will want to select a landscape design company with a commitment to continued skills development. Ask your landscape designer about certifications they may possess or new technologies they may be working with. A great designer will be happy to share this information with you, and will demonstrate a desire for continued success and improvement.

You’ll Know: Reputation & Friendly Service

When you consider the elements above, you’ll soon discover not all landscape designers are created equal. The best way to determine whether a company is the best for your project is to meet the team. A great reputation will lead you to the top landscapers, and then you can meet and decide for yourself which company to choose. Friendly, personalised service is an excellent indicator that you’re selecting one of the best designers in your area.
