Why Purchase a Landscaping Plan for Your New Construction Project
You can purchase a Landscaping Plan and Plant List under the Ultimate tier architectural design home plans because we know that these are the customers that want the full package of the entire plan. But why should you purchase it? For a few reasons:
- Landscaping directly relates to excavation and civil engineering. As they excavate for your home, we can determine where any good fill can be located, retaining walls for grade heights, and create walk-out basements etc.
- Locating the septic / well needs to be planned at the beginning of the project in order to have it where you want it or the contractor will place it in the easiest place but not the most functional for you.
- Your budget will be the most accurate if the contractor can see what you actually want to do with the exterior.
- When it is not part of the project, the landscaping goes by the wayside and is not done in phase one of the project. Having the plan will at least allow you to chip away at it if you are planning to do as much of it as possible.
- Considering where you are located geographically you might need to plan sooner than later. In New England, we stretch the season as much as possible but once the ground is frozen, we have to wait to plant until spring.
I’m passionate about landscaping plans because they will make a new construction house look like a home. To me, there is nothing okay about seeing a foundation with nothing planted in front. These are simple, easy-to-install plans, as part of your purchased home plan, that work directly with the home from the interior to the exterior.
