When
looking to hire a landscaping contractor, the experts at
Lowcountry Classic Gardens in Beaufort suggest you ask the following
questions:
1. Are plantings selected based upon
their respective
sun/shade requirements?
2. Will your contractor use plant
materials grown to
industry standards; free of disease & pests?
3. Does the sprinkler system provide
complete head-
to-head coverage?
4. Does your contractor provide as-built
drawings
of the plantings and sprinkler system?
5. Does your contractor offer a warranty
period for
the materials used in your project?
6. Can the contractor provide a
reference list of
installation and repair/service customers?
7. Can your contractor provide you with
"Certificate of Insurance" demonstrating they are fully insured for all
operations on your property; are the employees
covered by this insurance?
Hiring a landscape contractor is serious
business. Don't be afraid to shop around. Remember, your home's
surroundings are just as important as the home itself - an ongoing
source of comfort and inspiration, an expression of who you are and how
you want to live.
