It’s hard to imagine that summer is over. The leaves are falling and the air is colder, meaning it will be months before we get out to enjoy our backyards again. If bidding adieu to your outdoor space until next spring doesn’t make you just a little bit sad, perhaps it’s time to consider a landscape makeover to turn your property into your own summer oasis by next year.
Fall is the perfect time to plan and execute a backyard makeover:
- You are using your outdoor space less, so landscapers won’t be in the way of your day to day life.
- Landscape professionals are generally less busy in the fall and early winter, so you may have more success with availability than you would in the summer months.
- Many bulbs and plants require planting in fall in order to flower in spring – allowing you to have colour and vitality in your gardens from the very beginning of the season.
- Complete stonework, retaining walls and structures with plenty of time to allow grass and greenery to grow.
How do I plan my revitalized yard space?
In order to design the perfect outdoor entertainment area, it’s important to think about how you would like to use your yard. Do you like to have friends over in the afternoons for barbeques, or for late-night cocktails on the patio? Do you have small children who need space to play, or pets who may damage grass and foliage? Are you looking for a water feature for ambience or a fire table for sipping hot cocoa on a cool evening? All of these are important considerations that help to shape the look and feel you are after for your yard.
Armed with your ideas and our expertise, we can help you to design the ideal space to entertain, relax in and enjoy. We will advise you on feature placement and materials, plant choices and irrigation systems to ensure that your final product is everything you wanted- and more.
