How We Work

Michael Weishan, Host (2002-2007) |
Starting the design process couldn’t be easier. Simply call or our office to set up an initial consultation. Either I or one of my associates will then come out to your home, and spend an hour or two with you on site, evaluating the area, assessing the potential problems and possibilities, and most importantly getting to know you, your lifestyle, and what you envision for your property. We’ll also discuss project/design costs, and define the time frame for the design and construction process. We do charge for this initial consult – generally around $200 depending on your location – but the amount is entirely refundable should you proceed with our firm.
If you decide that you’d like to work with us, we’ll then develop and present to you an initial scaled set of drawings called “bubble plans,” so named from the large, cartoon-like dialogue bubbles that show how we envision using the various portions of your property. This money-saving step ensures that before we’ve proceeded too far in the drawing process – time is money, after all – everyone is in agreement about what specifics the final design will contain. Once everyone is on board, a second set of detailed plans is produced, showing hardscape and planting details, as well as budget estimates. At this point, you, the client, can decide what portions, if any, of the design you wish to implement. Should you decide to begin construction, a final set of drawings is produced for the various contractors involved. And of course, we'll be there supervising the project until the very last plant goes in the ground.
