Designing a landscape that suits your home, as well as your budget, is an important part of home ownership. Without careful planning it’s easy to watch your landscaping budget get away from you. When you start thinking about what you want and what it might cost, it’s important to remember an investment in professional landscaping will greatly add to the value of your home.
Effective budgeting is more than just planning. As a responsible homeowner you’ll want to monitor the budget closely and be conscious of the investment you’re making, regardless of who is actually performing the work. Make sure you build in some flexibility wherever possible to ensure your landscape project can handle the unexpected. Depending on the size of the land and the complexity of the design, a landscaping budget doesn’t need to be lengthy, but it should be detailed enough to be reasonably accurate.
Don’t be afraid to share this info with us – it’s better to envision and create a design to meet your budget, than to be scared away by a higher quote, out of your budget. We’re here to help you!
