If you are buying a new commercial building, you need to make sure everything looks great for your customers. One thing you may not consider is the landscaping. This is important as the first thing customers see is the exterior of your building. To do this, hire a commercial landscaping company. Below are different ways they can help you make everything look great.
Plant Flowers
The landscape contractor may start with flowers. There are flowers that are easy to care for and will come back each year in some cases. Daylilies are often used as these are easy to grow and bloom each year on their own. Their bright yellow blooms also look great. The landscape contractor may plant a few of these at the entrance or near the front of your building.
Annual flowers, such as petunias, pansies, and more, are also used in different areas. No matter what is chosen, mulch is used to make the flowers look neat. The landscape contractor will also choose flowers that grow well where you live.
Use Hardscaping
Hardscaping is an important part of landscaping your building. Hardscaping includes things like adding a bench to an area, installing a new concrete parking lot, or installing a new patio. What you choose will depend on your budget. The landscape contractor may suggest replacing the sidewalk or path customers use to walk to your door. Adding a patio along with patio furniture gives customers a place to sit during the warm days. The landscape contractor may choose to put a water fountain near the patio.
If your parking lot is in bad condition, the landscape contractor may suggest replacing it or making repairs. This is important, especially if you have a large parking lot. Customers can damage their cars if there are potholes, or people can trip when walking on the parking lot.
Plant Hedges and Bushes
The commercial landscape contractor may suggest planting hedges or bushes on the front side of the building. If so, they will ensure all bushes and hedges are trimmed so they are uniform in size.
There are bushes that stay green during the growing season. There are also bushes that will flower part of the year, such as rose bushes, hydrangeas, and more. Bushes are an easy way to increase the look of your landscaping.
