Thinking of redoing the landscape design of your Twin Cities outdoor living space, but are unsure where to start? Here are some simple tips from Environmental Design Inc. to help you get started:
Make a plan
You don’t want to rush out to the store and buy anything before you know what you’re doing. Sketch the design on paper, and you’ll know how much you’ll need and won’t waste any money.
Speak with a professional
Talking with an experienced landscape designer will save you from making costly mistakes. Get their input if you’re going to do the project yourself. This way, you can lock in an estimate if it becomes too much for you to handle.
Cheaper isn’t always better, but it’s sometimes good enough
Yes, you’ll want to save money, but when it comes to a project like this, you want quality. Talk to a local specialty shop about plants and ponds rather than going to a big chain store. On the other side, those stores might be better for things like mulch and pavers, as there’s little difference in quality.
