It’s the height of summer, the ideal time to get landscaping done for your property and finally get around to making your home more beautiful. With so much time spent indoors and outdoors during the season, planning is essential for a smooth landscaping installation. Although hiring residential landscaping services is a sure way to go, you should also get your yard ready for a building:
Organize Pathways & Entryways
Please clear all obstacles from your property’s entrances and pathways for the landscaping crew’s convenience. Take away any potential obstacles, like toys or furniture. Remove any vegetation from the walkways; replant elsewhere in the yard. There should be no rocks in the way of the landscaping work, so any found should be moved to a safe location nearby.
Evaluate Existing Trees & Shrubs
Before beginning installation, inspecting the existing trees and shrubs for any signs of disease or damage is vital. To prevent the spread of disease, the destruction of existing foliage, or the relocation of existing plants, it is essential to treat and prune them before installation.
Break Up Hard Surfaces
Before landscaping is installed, the pathways and hard surfaces should be broken up. Your plants and foliage’s stability and safety will increase significantly with this. Clear the yard of any weeds or trash and till it to a depth of 8 to 10 inches. After that, you should rake the soil to even it out and get it ready for planting.
Remove Overhanging Branches
It is essential to clear the area of any low-hanging branches as part of the prepping process. This will prevent the components from interfering with the landscaping installation and the foliage from causing any damage to nearby structures.
