What Are Landscape Services
Interested In ?
Landscaping is a planned activity to modify the natural features of a well determined area.
The main 2 landscaping subcategories are hardscaping (the installation of artificial landscape elements) and softscaping (the installation and maintenance of plants, trees and shrubs).
Landscaping VS Lawn Care
There is some confusion between landscaping and lawn care.
Lawn care deals with caring for your turf, including, but not limited to weed control, fertilization, etc. Lawn care is a subcategory of landscaping, which covers a much wider range of services, such as installing fences and decks, but also caring for gardens , trees and plants.
