Question 1

Are there some landscape designers that might be better for my type of project?

Accepted Answer

Most certainly. For example, some landscape designers may focus on gardens, while some with formal education in landscape architecture are qualified to take on larger projects for municipalities, corporations, or developers. The best option for you is one experienced in the type of landscape improvements you are looking to make on your property.

Question 2

Who does Nest Outdoors cater their landscape design services to?

Accepted Answer

At Nest Outdoors, we focus exclusively on residential landscape design-build services for homeowners who want to improve their quality of life through better outdoor living. Our projects typically include patios or decks, shade structures, outdoor kitchens, stone walls, perennial gardens, and outdoor/landscape lighting.

Question 3

Should I hire a qualified landscape designer before a pool installer or other specialty contractor?

Accepted Answer

Hiring a landscape designer before a pool installer or other specialty contractor is smart because a pool is a major outdoor living project. It involves a lot of considerations and usually needs to coordinate with multiple landscape features or elements like patios or decks, adjacent gardens, recreational areas, and outdoor structures. The design process can determine the ideal pool placement, size, shape, and elevation. Working with a landscape designer creates a cohesive design that integrates your pool and outdoor living areas into a unified plan.

Question 4

Do all landscape design companies offer landscape construction services?

Accepted Answer

Not all. There are some landscape design companies whose services end in design. The design produced gets outsourced for construction by putting it out to bid to other landscape companies. Conversely, some landscapers focus only on construction and either take on less complex landscaping projects or outsource the essential design creation. At Nest Outdoors, we offer complete design-build services because we know they bring our clients the most value. Our team is keenly aware of every design decision, its impact on the budget, and how a project needs to be constructed. As such, no detail slips through the crack or is left unattended, and every project is built to complete the design intent with maximum return for your investment.
