Master planning and Installations
Stage 1: Initial client meeting
This is typically a 15-30 minute in-person consultation with the owner reviewing property photographs, goals and vision for desired outcome. This appointment can be on premise with the customer for a fee, or free during the “Ask the Doctor” hours.
Stage 2: General design plan
Requires a deposit of $500, and the client will receive a graph design of an area of the yard to be design. Examples: a front foundation, outbuilding complete design, front garden area, one large island or 2 smaller areas. This is not a full property design.
This stage requires the client to provide pictures and rough measurements of the existing site area.
It includes a list of plants that appeal to the client.
Note: The $500 deposit includes a $350 gift certificate for plants to use anytime and does not expire.
Stage 3: Nursery services / Installation
Planting cost, under normal situations, the charge is 2/3rds the cost of the plant , example is if the tree is $100 then the planting cost is $67 not including preparations of the site or access issues, nor does it include delivery or equipment needed. Each job has its own circumstances for charges.
Stage 4: Full master plan
This stage produces a full detailed landscape design drawing on architectural paper or computer-generated to scale.
This typically ranges from about $1800 and up, and depends on scope of the project.
