4 Tips for Hiring a Commercial Landscaping Service

There's nothing quite like a freshly landscaped property. When was the last time you hired a commercial landscaping to make your business look its best? If it's time to upgrade your curb appeal, it's also time to reach out to local landscapers.

But how do you find a commercial landscaping company that's right for you? Let's talk about it. Read on for our top four tips for finding and hiring commercial landscaping services.

1. Clearly Define Your Needs

First, determine what it is you're looking for from a commercial landscaping service. What's your budget? What specific services are you looking for? What's your ideal timeframe?

When you know these things, it will be far easier to find commercial landscapers that work for you. If you start your search without knowing what you're looking for, you'll just end up spinning your wheels.

2. Ask Around

Make sure to use your resources when you're trying to find commercial landscaping services in your area.

Your first helpful resource is the internet. Research local landscaping companies and create a shortlist of potential candidates. You don't have to deep-dive into any one website yet (that's the next step), but you may want to check star ratings to make sure that the business is, at the very least, reliable.

Ask for recommendations from colleagues or other businesses in your area. People you know can be fantastic resources and they're often more reliable than online reviews. If you see a business with fantastic landscaping, don't be afraid to ask which company was responsible for it.

3. Browse Landscaping Company Websites

Now it's time to browse websites from the companies you've narrowed down in the previous step. There are several things to look for here.

First, services. Make sure that the company offers all of the services you need, whether it's hardscaping, snow removal, water features, retaining walls, or anything else that falls under the landscaping services umbrella.

Next, verify that the landscaping company is licensed and insured. Ensure they have the necessary permits and certifications to operate in your area.

Check to see if the websites include portfolios of past work. This way you can evaluate their experience.

4. Call With Questions

Once you've settled on one or two companies, it's time to call with any questions you have. Remember that these companies expect prospective clients to call and there's no such thing as a silly question.

This is the right time to discuss specific services and your budget before making a commitment. You do not need to commit right away.

Find Your Ideal Commercial Landscaping Company

If you're in need of commercial landscaping services, use these tips to help you find the perfect landscaping company for you. Remember, define your needs, use your resources, evaluate company websites, and don't be afraid to call with questions. You'll find the perfect commercial landscapers for your business in no time.
