Every season we build many different types of landscape projects. It can be a small paver patio or a 150′ long retaining wall. It can be a complete design build for an entire back yard project or a simple planting project. This year we feel that landscape renovations will be the big hit. Defining planter beds, adding some plants, curb appeal and patios for out door rooms will most likely be the top concerns our clients want.

Innovative ideas in landscape construction are desired by our clients. Sometimes it is hard to keep up with fresh new ideas as a landscape contractor. It takes work on our part to stay fresh and keep new looks coming to our over worked minds. Since we are landscape contractors, our forte is not necessarily making sure you are getting a lot of innovative ideas for your landscaping, but landscape designers do. We do however, make sure that all of our clients get landscape designers or architects that we trust and work with. Our feeling at woodyscustomlandscaping.com is that we can select a designer or architect that suits our clients wants and personality. Let’s face it, not everybody gets along with everyone. So we try to hand pick a designer to your particular situation and project type.
Not every landscape estimate calls out for a landscape designer, but we feel that designers offer fresh ideas for our clients.

I feel each landscaping project we finish is unique and designed personally for our clients. The above photograph shows a horizontal slab bubbler in which the client found a Edgar Allen Poe style Raven in which he thought really added his personality. He was right and indeed it is a very unique look.
Landscape construction really means any type of construction in the landscape. It could be a retaining wall, fire pit, patio or outdoor kitchen. I suppose you could push the envelope and include all softscaping which would be lawns, planting and irrigation. The point being is that all landscape construction installed should be unique to the client.

How do you as a client make sure that the landscaping you wish to get installed is unique to you? Get a landscape design. A landscape design will be made to your own life style desires. There should be a charge for it since there really is no such thing as a free landscape design. This is true even if you have a landscape contractor say he will draw up a free design if you install the landscape with them. Those hours it takes to draw up the design and consult with you have to be paid by somebody. It most often is included in the proposal with the actual work portion. Nothing is for free. I’m sure you have heard the quote, “If it seems to good to be true it probably is”.
Consider getting a landscape designer before getting your landscape bids. It will lesson confusion about multiple bids, You will have a plan of action and not a bunch of landscape contractors coming out all seeming to say and think different ideas, and methods of approach.

In the last 5-6 years outdoor rooms and the phrase outdoor living has hit a all time high in the landscaping industry. Almost every client wants to be able to go into their backyard and enjoy their outdoor environment with some hardscaping. For some it’s just a matter of a larger patio with some turf. I call turf, “soft patios”. For others, a large outdoor living area, is on the agenda. These outdoor rooms offer such options as a BBQ, large patio space, covered areas, seating areas, fire pit, water features and of course planting.

In the photo below is a project that has a small water feature, natural gas fire pit and a large interlocking concrete paver patio.

The next photograph includes the outdoor kitchen we installed.

The next photograph shows the outdoor kitchen again, but with two covered pergolas we constructed.

This next photograph gives a good view of the entire upper outdoor living area that we built.

The landscape designer for this project was Outman’s Landscape Design, based in Vancouver Washington. We were thrilled to be able to work as a design build team with Troy Outman.
For quality landscape construction choose Woody’s as your landscape contractor.

A good symbiotic relationship between a landscape designer or architect and landscape contractor is obviously the best design build relationship for the homeowner. It should be a relationship that when you add both the designer and landscape contractor together, you get more than a simple math problem, but something that adds value, usefulness, and a beautiful landscape project. Many landscapers claim that they design build, but I feel that it takes two to tango. We all have our areas of expertise. As a landscape construction contractor, I feel I offer the best in construction. Does a designer usually have the expertise in construction? No, they may but there level of expertise is mostly found in the creation of ideas. Our level of expertise is in the implementing and construction of the design.

The following photographs show either a landscape architect and landscape contractor design build effort or with a landscape designer. All of the work is work we constructed.

Why bother to get a landscape design or start a design build relationship in the winter months? There are a few very good reasons to get a landscape design in the winter.
1. Landscape designers are usually not that busy during the winter months. This makes the process of designing your landscape quicker and you usually get a better design because the designer is not
overly busy.
2. Chances are landscape construction companies aren’t very busy and there might be some discounting available. A perfect time to get several landscape bids and your landscape contractor!
3. Winter is a great time to plan, save money and get a financial overview of what your landscaping may cost. The pressure is off trying to make a quick decision on getting a design and estimate before
the industry gets very busy in spring. The design and estimating process can take a good solid month before it can be implemented.
You may be thinking that you don’t need a landscape design. If the job is of any size make sure that the landscape contractors are all bidding the same quantities and sizes. For example: There is a difference in costs of a 5 gallon shrub and a 2 gallon shrub. Make sure the contractor has a accurate planting list with sizes and quantities. Without one there is no way to know which landscape contractor is offering the best price and service. How big is the proposed patio? One landscape contractor may bid for a 250 square foot patio and the other a 300 square foot patio. For a paver patio, that may mean a $700.00 difference.
A landscape design will pin point quantities and sizes of plants. A landscape design will also spell out exactly how big that patio may be.
I do stress heavily on a landscape design implemented for most landscaping jobs. Do not expect landscape designs are at no charge. A landscape design is the best insurance that a prospective client can get. A landscape design will help you know what exactly is being proposed for your home as well as give you a apples to apples bid from your landscape contractors.woodyscustomlandscaping.com

Below is a review for a landscape job we installed. They had a landscape design which made the work easier for us, since there was no guessing on what or where.

Jason and crew made us very happy with a large project on our property. We had extensive design preparation, sprinkler installation and tree planting completed. Jason was helpful with ideas, and freely included our desire to do some of the work ourselves to save on costs. Crews arrived on time, were courteous, and left the job-site very clean after they were done. All of the crew thanked me for giving them the job, (a first for us) and were happy when I told them how pleased I was with their work. Woody’s guarantees their plants for a year, and I have no doubt if I have issues in the spring, they will make it right. I found Woody’s through Home Services Network of SW Washington, and would recommend any of the contractors in their group. Thank you Woody and Jason!
