What to look for when hiring a landscape architect |
Your exterior space is one of the first impressions that your home or business present to the public. In order to get the most of your time and investments in your landscaping potentials, it is helpful to hire a professional landscape architect to bring your landscaping ideas to fruition.
Start with local firms.
Be clear in communicating your visions, concerns, requirements, and expectations with the landscape designer. Look for designer with good communication skills. Also good oral communication is essential in conveying ideas and tasks with other professions.
Be honest about how much you want to spend, but choosing a designer based solely on a fee schedule is a big mistake.
Always interview the landscape designer. Trust is the key to the successful outcome of any design project. A designer should be hired only if the rapport between the clients and designer is a good one.
Ask for reference from past clients. Trustworthy professionals will be glad to provide list of telephone numbers of local clients satisfied with a job well done.
Request to see certificate of liability and workman’s compensation insurance and check that they are current. Phone the insurance company to verify current policy information. |
