Your Guide to Landscape Demolition

1. The First Steps

To prepare your yard for a fresh new design, the landscaping contractor may need to demolish some of the space to accommodate a new patio or retaining walls. They’ll inspect the land extensively before this work begins and evaluate the location of existing structures, such as the foundation of the home in proximity to your landscaping project. This allows them to create a useful blueprint that won’t delay the project or lead to development problems.


2. Duration of Project

The project blueprint often serves as a guideline for determining the duration of the project. While placing plants and trees isn’t necessarily time-consuming, installing elements like water features and retaining walls does take more time. Your landscaping contractor’s experience plays a role here, too. Ask for examples of the work you’re interested in beforehand, and find out how long the work took to complete. This will give you an idea of what to expect.


3. Potential Site Problems

There’s always a possibility that a problem may arise, usually due to an unforeseen structure below the ground. Sometimes it’s a pipe that isn’t immediately evident or some wires that are indiscernible. It may take some time to determine their roots and, if necessary, rework the blueprint. This might slow things down a little and result in increased labor costs.
