Evaluating the Landscape Site
Site analysis is a big part of what we do. We can walk your property and gather the information that will be important in designing your landscape plan. We take time to identify any potential assets or problems.
We investigate the site’s topography, the drainage the site provides, how much sun and shade it gets each day, the soil type, and existing landscape elements. All of these factors will be taken into consideration before we put pencil to paper to begin your design.
After evaluating your site, we can begin designing your dream landscape if you decide to hire us.
Designing Your Ideal Space through Hardscaping
Once you have decided to contract with us, we will begin designing a plan that meets your goals as well as your budget. We will consider the hardscape designs you might be interested in first. Some examples of hardscape designs are as follows:
- Walkways
- Driveways
- Paths
- Patios
- Outdoor kitchens
- Firepit areas
- Retaining walls
- Pergolas
- Arbors
- Garden walls
You may also want to consider a water feature. These add beauty, and a delightful sound, bring wildlife to your garden, and add an overall sense of serene calm to an area. You can use a simple fountain, a pond, a pool, bubbling rocks, spillways, waterfalls, or streams to add an unexpected, inviting element to your garden.
Your hardscaping elements can use a variety of materials. The McKinney, TX, landscape experts with Siara Designs can show you your options and help you determine the look you want that is available at multiple price points and the pros and cons of each.
