Xeriscape Transformation
REDUCE WATER USAGE BY 80%
- We locate the sprinkler heads and any drains that may be in the area to be xeriscaped. Then we use a sod-cutting machine to remove old grass/weeds and unwanted vegetation.
- The old grass and weeds are moved by wheelbarrow to our trailer. We take this material to a legal green waste dump in the area.
- The area is raked off and final graded and prepared for the concrete borders that make up the xeriscape design.
- The concrete borders are installed per the xeriscape design created by the homeowner and our company.
- The plants are installed with time-release tablets and B-1 to reduce transplant shock.
- A drip irrigation system is installed. This will provide water at the exact plant location and reduces water loss.
- The area is cleaned up; the timer is programmed to deliver the right amount of water for the season. We monitor the new installation for 4 weeks. We can continue to protect your investment through an on-going maintenance program.
