Benefits of Landscape Construction

Adding new landscaping is one of the single most important things you can do to increase your home's value. The American Society of Landscape Architects recommends homeowners spend around ten percent of their home's value in landscaping. You'll get a great deal out of that investment, as the right landscaping can add as much as 20% to your home's value.

Landscaping also makes it more likely that you will want to spend time outdoors. This, in turn, provides a number of health benefits, namely improving concentration and mental clarity. Those who spend time outside are also less likely to experience a Vitamin D deficiency.

Enhancing your outdoor living space is good for you socially. Imagine spending time with family and friends around a cozy fire pit during a cool autumn or winter night. Or enjoying delicious meals made in your outdoor kitchen or grilling area. In doing so, you'll create wonderful memories that are bound to last you a lifetime.

Enhancing Littleton, Colorado's Natural Beauty

Landscaping work should always complement the surrounding terrain and plant life. Maybe you have mature Western catalpa or Glenleven Linden trees you would like to highlight by planting some Green Gold or Lime Krinkles hostas underneath. You may even desire some flowering shrubs such as leadplant or shadbush to accent a retaining wall or flower garden.

At The Landscaping Company, we can help you choose plants that will show off other landscaping features or create a backyard focal point. We take into consideration other hardscaping features such as garden paths and walkways as well, ensuring that everything flows well together and you achieve the exact look you desire.

Including native plants adds an element of beauty, making it more likely you will want to spend time outdoors. Schedule a consultation so that we can help you design the backyard oasis you have always dreamed of.

Experience You Can Count On

Many landscape construction jobs are more detailed than what they appear to be on their face. This is why you should trust your outdoor living project to us. Our owner, Clay Brooks, has more than 20 years of landscaping and landscape design experience. He'll use the extensive knowledge he has gained to ensure your project is completed to perfection.

When planning new construction, we'll consider whether or not you need site grading, tree removal, fill dirt, irrigation design or any other type of prep work. We'll never skip these important steps just to save money or get the work done faster. We do things right so that you can make the most of your outdoor living project for years to come.

Maintaining your Littleton, CO Landscape Design

Our service to you doesn't end with construction and installation. We also provide year-round maintenance to help you keep your landscape in great condition. Our landscaping technicians can ensure the good health of your plants by providing:

• Mulching
• Weed control
• Fertilizing
• Trimming and pruning
• Integrated Pest Management
• Snow removal

Xeriscaping on the Front Range

Here at The Landscaping Company, we also practice xeriscaping. Xeriscaping involves the use of native, drought-resistant plants that are well-suited for Colorado's climate. These hardy plants require less water and are highly resistant to common pests such as aphids, Japanese beetle, and mealy bugs. As such, your plants will thrive longer, so you can enjoy an amazing garden without worry.

Xeriscaping Choices for Colorado Homeowners

You may think that xeriscaping would limit your plant options. That's not at all the case, as there are several that are well-suited for the alkaline soil and warm summer continental climate that is so prevalent here in Littleton. A few of the plants you have to choose from include:

• Yarrow
• Fernbush
• Spanish Gold Broom
• Iceplant
• Mojave Sage
• Blue Avena Grass

If you have other plants in mind and are wondering how they might fare, we would be glad to answer questions about them as well. Allow our knowledgeable team of landscaping professionals to come up with an arrangement that best suits your lifestyle and personality.

Make the most of outdoor living in Littleton by reducing the amount of upkeep and maintenance that's required. Contact us today to schedule a consultation with a member of our design team.
