We are Looking to hire an experienced crew immediately who can complete part 2 of a landscaping project that began 2 years ago.
*****Please have a website, Facebook page or at the bare minimum, photoshop and videos of you, your crew, your truck and trailer and jobs you've done recently where you show some plantings, xeroscaping jobs, plantings, hardscaping, etc.****** If you have written reviews on YELP, Google, Thumbtack or other....please let us know this!
See photos of the home and the vision we have for a lovely Xeroscaped yard. You will want to salvage good quality mulch to be
used to provide moisture around new plantings only. There will be approximately 8 smaller 1 -2 gallon Colorado native or very drought tolerant plants/perrenials/agave-type plus a couple of native grasses and small dwarf evergreens in the front yard combined with some artificial turf I have left over from a couple of previous projects. These pieces are mainly long strips of 10-20' long and 3-4' wide. In the back, it will be a similar look to the front with perhaps 3 dwarf evergreen bushes, 2-3 grasses native, agave and native perrenials. I’m guessing there will be 4 areas (1 in front and 3 in back) that required actual plantings so maybe 32 plants total with amended soil.
All old gray weedguard can be covered up by new 5 ounce professional weedguard and stapled down! The old flagstone dark red little pieces removed and discarded, and the chicken wire around the back fencing removed and discarded snd a few trimmings of lower branches of pine trees removed.
We will be using a variety of decorative rock instead of mulch hearty enough that won't blow away with Colorado winds or leaf blowers, mainly decorative as shown in the "after" images attached. The existing lighting needs to be removed and replaced after the plants are in with new soil, new weedguard of TOP quality is down and a drip system in front and back is attached to the hose bibs in front and back with timers. The goal is to drip water these new plants for 3 years until their roots have taken hold and they can survive in the Colorado climate without watering. If you have knowledge of the best plants to survive our crazy climate, I would love to have you join us on the shopping excursion to Alameda Nursery to select them.
We would like existing trees and plants cleaned up especially the pine tree in front brought up off the ground and the pine needles removed. All old branches and pine needles need to be discarded.
Please provide me some photos of other jobs you've done that might be similar in nature. Before and afters are even more powerful!
The HOMEOWNERS will pay for all materials from Alameda Wholesale nursery, but we need you to have the ability to pick up the plants with LOTS of long nails driven into the ground to hold it in place, soil, artificial turf (in Louisville) and such.
You are only quoting LABOR for this job plus factor in a run or two to the landfill. For the rock, we will have that delivered from Pioneer or another similar landscape materials company. We can provide you the address to see the job in person, provided you provide us with recent jobs you've done and please no stolen glamour landscape jobs photos from the internet! I like when I can see you working on the jobs IN PROGRESS with your crew, truck/trailer, wheelbarrows and such in some of the photos.
