Frequently asked questions
Before the first design meeting, the designer will usually prepare:
Several reasonable plan layout options tailored to your property, with clear explanations of why each works and what benefits it brings. A 3D view may also be included to help you better visualize the space.
An outline of the design process and next steps, so you know what to expect from concept to final plan.
Initial guidance on construction approaches, such as materials, methods, and what may suit your site conditions best.
This ensures you can make informed choices about both the design direction and how it can be built.
Moisture retention: Compost helps the soil hold water, reducing the need for frequent watering.
Weed control: It suppresses weed growth by blacking sunlight.
Temperature regulation: Compost absorbs more heat, helping to warm the soil earlier in spring and extending the growing season for some plants.
Price: Same price as Triple Mix
Safety: Open pipe ends can be tripping hazards or leave unsightly gaps on the lawn. A Pop-Up Emitter stays closed and flush with the ground when not in use.
Aesthetics: The low-profile design blends seamlessly into the landscape without disrupting the look of your yard.
Prevents clogs: Because it only opens under water pressure, it helps keep out leaves, soil, and small animals.
Controlled water release: Directs water exactly where it’s needed, preventing erosion and puddling compared to uncontrolled runoff.
Low maintenance: Requires minimal upkeep compared to open drains or surface channels.
