Landscape Design Process
landscape design you can trust
The JM Mento Landscape Design process includes three phases to complete a successful landscape design project from the South Shore to Boston. Read more about our landscape design process below!
Initial Site Meeting
Every project begins with a walkthrough of your property to determine your needs. We want to find out how you envision using your space- whether you need more room for children to play, a space for pets to run, a patio for entertaining, a quiet retreat amongst nature to relax, or a privacy screening from your neighbors. We pay special attention to the details with design issues that you may not have thought about, and offer innovative and environmentally friendly solutions as part of your landscape plan. We also aim to get a sense of your aesthetic preferences, as well as your project budget, so that we are able to implement the perfect design for you and your family.
Design Proposal
After the initial consultation, we conduct a thorough site analysis and will provide you with a design proposal. Client then accepts the proposal and pays the job deposit. The deposit amount for your landscape design depends on the project scope and total cost. All design fees will be credited back to the customer if they sign on with JM Mento Landscape Design for the install.
Design Presentation
Once the design has been completed, the designer will either meet with you to present the design, or will email the design. We will continually work with you to revise the project until we have created your perfect landscape. After the design has been finalized, we will provide a cost estimate for your project and if you accept, we will schedule the installation promptly.
Installation and Build
When the proposal is signed and a deposit received we will schedule your installation. Our crews of highly skilled and experienced employees will implement your design in an efficient and professional manner. Your designer will be in close contact with the installation crew throughout the installation to facilitate the process.
Final Walk-Through
Upon completion of your landscape installation your designer will set up a time to walk through the job to be sure everything was done to your satisfaction.
