Garden Landscaping Contractors
Key to any garden design and landscaping project is the implementation of the design and specification that as the designer, we set out for our clients. It is therefore vitally important that we work closely with the contractor to ensure the end result for the client is all they dreamt of. Communication is key!
A Garden Designer and a Garden Landscaper
As an entirely independent Garden Design services business which is not a part of a landscaping contractors organisation, our sole intention is to create the best garden design process we can for our clients and find the best value for money solution with a contractor to build and implement it for them, to an exceptional standard. I am a professionally qualified Landscape & Garden Designer, and the skill sets between myself, and any landscape contractor are quite different, but complement one another to deliver the ideal garden professionally designed and implemented for our clients – think architect and builder. See what the differences between a garden designer and a landscaper are within our detailed article.
Working with Commercial Landscape Contractors
We work independently with a number of excellent local garden landscape contractors so that when it comes to the tendering stage of the process, we can look at a variety of options to present to our clients. This ensures that the client receives the best quote possible, something an ‘all in one proposal’ will not achieve. Firstly, most garden landscape contractors won’t be professionally qualified to design, secondly, the client will receive only one quote for the build. We will ensure that the landscaping contractors invited to tender have understood the project scope through detailed plans and specifications, thorough communication, and pre-quote site visits. We will check the tenders over and present options. Decisions can then be made on costs, availability and best fit to ensure that the ideal contractor for the specific job is selected.
A Stress-Free Garden Build Process!
We are then able to manage the contract with the landscapers on behalf of our clients to ensure a stress-free process. This can include checking invoices, checking, and signing off work completed, answering any questions throughout the garden build, and managing the final ‘snagging’ inspections with the landscaper.
By working independently but closely with some excellent landscape contractors, our clients will enjoy their beautiful gardens across Hampshire including Winchester, as well as in Sussex, Surrey, Dorset or Berkshire for years to come!
