Landscaping generally refers to the design and maintenance of outdoor spaces. This can include everything from gardens and flower beds to lawns, trees, and shrubs. Most landscaping services will include weekly or monthly maintenance visits, but some may also offer one-time services such as fall clean-ups. Some common services that are included in most landscaping contracts are: mowing, trimming, edging, blowing debris off of walkways and driveways, weed control, fertilizing, and planting/mulching. However, each company is different so be sure to ask about specific services before signing a contract.
Landscaping services vary depending on the company, but often include design, construction, and maintenance of outdoor spaces. Maintenance can include mowing lawns, trimming plants, weed control, and leaf clean-ups. Some companies may also offer snow removal or pest control services. Fall clean-ups are not always included in a landscaping contract but can often be requested as an add-on service. Leaves will typically need to be raked and bagged or mulched before winter arrives. Snow removal is usually only necessary in areas with heavy snowfall.
