How to choose the best landscaping professional for your project?

Choosing the right landscaping company or professional can be challenging in New Zealand with many professionals operating in the field. You want to find a professional whose skills match your needs and expectations. To help you make an informed decision, there are some key tips you can follow for choosing the best landscaping professional for your project. The first is to always look at the company profile, previous projects and customer testimonials, all easily done on ArchiPro. From there you can create a shortlist of potential candidates that suit your project. Next, arrange meetings with the shortlisted candidates and ask the following questions:

  • How long have you been involved in landscaping in New Zealand?
  • How long will my landscaping project take?
  • Do you foresee any challenges with my landscaping project?
  • Do your services include irrigation systems?
  • Will you be on-site during the landscaping, or will it be other members of your team?

Can landscaping be done in winter?

The answer to this question is yes, but only if you know what you're doing. Winter is a great time to add new plants and trees to your property, as long as you consider the weather conditions. If you live in an area that experiences heavy snowfall or where temperatures are very low, it's best to wait until spring to plant. But if your area only sees moderate rain and temperatures aren't too cold, you can plant them.

What should a landscape plan include?

In New Zealand, a landscape plan is an integral part of any garden design. It should include the location of the garden (where it will be located on its site), a sketch of the property including any existing trees, shrubs, and fences, a list of plants that will be used in the garden and their specific needs (e.g., soil texture, sun exposure) and a list of common pests that might affect those plants and how you plan to deal with them.

How does landscaping affect the environment?

Landscaping can significantly impact the environment, both in terms of reducing pollution and improving air quality. Using plants and trees to create a more sustainable landscape can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted into the atmosphere while releasing oxygen into the air at the same time.
