Landscapers
What is Landscaping?
Landscaping is the act of designing and constructing any type of outdoor area, such as a garden or courtyard. When talking about landscaping, there are two main elements associated with it; hardscaping and softscaping.
Hardscaping is referring to any part of the landscape that is not living, such as retaining walls, decks, and water features. Softscaping is referring to the living parts of the garden, such as plants, trees, and shrubs.

What does Landscaping include?
Like when hiring someone from any trade, it is important when booking your landscaper that you let them know what it is exactly what you would like done. This way, they will be able to design something to fit your needs, as well as make you an offer. If you are unsure where to start, grab a pen and paper, then go wander around your outside area.
Make a note of anything that needs to be done, as well as ideas that you may have. A landscaper can perform these tasks, as well as give you helpful advice.
Another way to approach your landscaping project is to break it down by the skillset you need your landscaper to have, or the service that you need done. Here are some examples of jobs that you can have your landscaper perform, and what you can expect from the process.
Landscape Planning and Design
When you are undergoing a big change in your outside living space, it is a good idea to start with planning. A good landscape designer will be able to help you come up with ideas, as well as map everything out before beginning.
Most designers will draw up a design for your approval that will bring your vision to life, and enhance the look of your outdoor space. This can include fora choices and locations, as well as elements of design such as paving, pathways, water features, and so forth.
Gardens and Horticulture
A fundamental part of landscaping, horticulturalists or landscapers with knowledge of horticulture will have a background in natural sciences. They will have extensive knowledge of the size that plants will grow to, the color variations, and the sustainability of certain plants and trees.
If you are wanting to reduce the amount of grass you have to mow, or are wanting to have a vegetable garden, you can get some help with your garden landscaping and garden edging to get your perfect landscape design done sooner.
Trees
Although trees are a wonderful thing to have around, in some cases they will need to be discarded or cleaned up. If you are not experienced, you should not attempt to do this yourself. A knowledgable landscaper will be able to do this for you, as they will have the right equipment and knowledge to do so.
Landscape Project Management
Like any large project, a project manager can ensure that your landscape project is completed on time, on budget, and to a high standard. Sourcing one of these project managers is an important aspect to consider, especially given the fact that they will manage and coordinate the contractors on-site that are working on your landscape design.
Earth and Rocks
Regardless of how little or extensive your landscape project, don’t worry about trying to do everything yourself. Landscaping contractors have the tools and equipment to do your trench digging, leveling, and excavations.
Water
If there are plants and other flora, there will be a need for water. You will want to have a good watering system in place, without needing to haul a hose around with you every time you water. This can be done with a drip or irrigation system that will be carefully thought out and executed by your landscaper.
Additionally, they can make your garden even more beautiful with a garden pond, waterfall, or other water features. Regardless of what your water needs are, having a landscaper on hand will ensure that it is completed that much faster.
Landscape Building and Installations
A major component of the landscaping process is to install things that will make your outdoor space more functional and beautiful. This can include things like retaining walls, artificial turf, landscape lighting, or even garden benches to sit on.
It is always a good idea to have a landscaper on board to help with things like this, as it can involve heavy lifting or specific tools. You will be able to start enjoying your outdoor space much sooner, as they will help with the installation safely and efficiently.
Once the design has been finalized, they will start the construction; if they are working on a new property, this will be done from scratch. Or alternatively, existing spaces can be either renovated or enhanced.
Construction usually will involve the use of heavy machinery and tools, particularly if there is leveling or rock-moving that needs to be completed. If it is part of the design, then brickwork, joinery, and tiling may also be done.
