5 Signs Your Landscape Needs a Renovation

Your landscape is one of the first things people see when they look at your home. But after a while even the nicest yards can start to look old, get too wild or become a hassle to take care of. If you have been thinking that your yard is just not what it used to be, you might be wondering if you need to do some upkeep or if it is time for a renovation.

In this guide we will go over the 5 signs that your landscape needs a complete makeover and what you can do about it.

1. Your Plants Are Overgrown, Dying or Do Not Match

* Shrubs that have grown too big and are blocking windows or walkways

* Plants that are dead or struggling to survive

* Random plant varieties that don’t flow together

* Flower beds that are too crowded or too empty

What this means:

A full redesign with proper spacing, plant selection, and layout.

2. Your Landscape Looks Old

* Mulch beds that are old and do not have edges

* Plants that are old or have been used much

* Things that have faded

* No features to look at

What this means:

Modernizing your landscape with clean lines around the flower beds, new plants and features like patios or walkways.

3. You Have Problems With Water Drainage or Standing Water

* Water that collects in your yard after it rains

* Spots that are always soggy

* Soil that is washing away or mulch that is being washed out

* Water near your house foundation

What this means:

Needing to fix the way your yard is graded and put in a good drainage system.

4. Your Hardscape Is Failing

* Patios that are cracked

* No places for seating areas

* Walkways that are worn out

* Space not being used

What this means:

Adding elements of an outdoor living space like patios, walkways or fire pits.

5. Your Landscape Needs Much Work (High Maintenance)

* Consistently pulling weeds

* Always trimming plants

* Your yard never looks clean

* Do not use your yard

What this means:

You need to design your landscape so it is low maintenance with space between plants and the right plant selection.
