FAQs

Common Answers To Your Questions
  • What Factors Affect The Cost of Landscaping Services?

    The cost of landscaping services can vary based on several factors, including the size of the project, the complexity of the design, the types of materials and plants used, the equipment and labor required, and the project's location. Additional factors that can impact the cost include the need for site preparation, excavation, or specialized equipment. For more information about residential or commercial lawn maintenance in Littleton, CO, give us a call.

  • How Do I Find A Reliable Landscaper?

    You can start by asking for recommendations from friends, neighbors, or local businesses. Online reviews can provide additional insights into previous clients' experiences with different local landscaping companies. In fact, according to IBISWorld, there are over 647,000 landscaping companies in the United States as of 2023. With that in mind, carefully consider a company's experience, portfolio, certifications, and client testimonials before hiring them. If you're looking for reliable commercial lawn maintenance in Littleton, CO, contact us today.

  • What Is The Benefit Of Having Artificial Turf?

    One reason to consider artificial turf in Colorado is its water-saving benefits. The state is known for its arid climate, limited water resources, and periodic drought conditions. Installing artificial turf can significantly reduce water usage compared to maintaining a natural grass lawn. Since artificial turf doesn't require regular watering, you can conserve a significant amount of water, contribute to water conservation efforts, and potentially save on water bills. Additionally, artificial turf remains green and lush throughout the year, even in Colorado's dry and fluctuating climate, providing an aesthetically pleasing landscape without the need for excessive watering. Contact us today to learn more about the work our landscaping contractors in Littleton, CO perform.

  • What Is The Difference Between Landscaping and Hardscaping?

    Modern landscaping refers to the design and construction of gardens and other features that create usable space for outdoor activities and enhance the appearance of a home. Hardscaping includes constructions made from non-organic materials like stone. These often include retaining walls, decks, firepits, and more. For a team of landscaping contractors Littleton, CO loves, give JRM Landscape & Design a call today.

  • Should I Have A Water Feature Installed By A Certified Aquascape Contractor?

    While it is not mandatory to have a certified aquascape contractor install a water feature, hiring such a professional can offer several advantages. Aquascape certification indicates that the contractor has undergone specific training and has demonstrated expertise in designing and installing water features.
