With the springtime now arriving across Calgary, many homeowners are now planning their landscaping design work to ensure a fresh appeal to their lawns for the months to come. To ensure success in their landscaping projects, it’s imperative property owners work with trusted landscaping professionals. Our Calgary landscaping designtips are highlighted in this quick guide to successful spring landscaping.

Start Small

One of the most important pieces of guidance we can provide to do it yourself landscaping designers is to start small with a small patch of land. This will ensure that any problems with the grass or the lawn space can be identified before they become a large-scale issue that damages the entire area. Select an area of the lawn and then begin the design work focusing solely on that area.

Review Designs with a Specialist

Even if they plan on completing the design work themselves, homeowners should review their designs alongside a specialist before they begin the project. The specialist can then highlight potential challenges faced during the design work and can ensure that all project elements are streamlined.

Consider the Weather

When choosing sod for upcoming landscaping projects, make sure to consider the weather patterns for the coming weeks and months. Cooler, dryer weather can make it more difficult to plant the soil successfully. It’s better to begin the work during a week when many days of sunshine and warmer temperatures are expected.
