Why hire a landscape designer?

Why hire a landscape designer?

The decision to hire a professional landscape designer can be one of the smartest investments you'll make toward enhancing your home. A landscape designer can work with you to transform a neglected corner into a garden sanctuary, or help you completely plan and furnish your outdoor living spaces through the creative use of plants, hardscaping, and other garden elements, that will result in a unified, balanced environment that you'll enjoy for years to come.

Using design education and hands-on experience, advanced horticultural knowledge, graphic and drafting skills, a professional landscape designer will translate your dreams into reality. Working closely with you, the designer will create a customized design that is best suited to your home, its site, and your lifestyle. The landscape designer will create a scaled graphic plan that will enable you and others to visualize your new landscape and will provide clear instructions for its construction. Without a professionally prepared plan you may be disappointed if the end results do not meet your expectations. The lack of a well thought out design plan can also lead to higher installation costs due to change orders, modifications, and rework.

APLD® New Jersey Chapter members continually hone their design skills. Some of our members are certified, which means they have submitted their work to a rigorous, juried peer-review process. A consultation with a professional landscape designer will help you take the next steps with confidence. To locate a designer near you, please visit APLD-NJ's chapter member's list below.
