Most homeowners start planning their landscape in April... and regret it by May when crews are booked solid and material costs have spiked. Smart planners know January is when the real advantage begins.

Crew Availability

Winter calendars are still flexible, ensuring your project receives dedicated attention and expertise.

Faster Turnaround

Early booking places your installation at the front of the queue, ready to begin as soon as spring arrives.

Material Sourcing

Secure plants, lighting, and stone before peak spring demand and potential supply chain delays impact availability.

Budget Control

Lock in pricing at the start of the year, effectively avoiding seasonal surcharges that can inflate costs later.

What You Can Plan Now

Landscape Lighting Installs

Design and stage transformers, wiring, and fixture layouts for an illuminated space.

Hardscape Projects

Benefit from early material selection for patios, walkways, and retaining walls

Planting Plans

The structure of the garden is easily identified and enhanced winter interest can be a focus.

Seasonal Enhancements

Schedule patios, water features, or fire pits for spring installations to enjoy the entire year.

Don’t Wait Until March

By spring, landscape crews are often fully booked, and desired materials can become harder to source. January planning ensures your design is finalized, your spot is reserved, and your yard is perfectly poised for transformation the moment the ground thaws.
