Hi everyone,
I’ve been planning a full refresh of my backyard this season — thinking about a mix of hardscaping (like a small patio and maybe a retaining wall) along with some gardening features (raised beds and low-maintenance plants).
The problem is, I don’t know if I should try handling parts of it myself or bring in a professional landscaping service. I want the work to last long-term and not end up redoing things every couple of years.
For those of you in the Vancouver/Coquitlam area:
Have you hired local landscaping companies before, and was it worth the investment?
Did you notice a big difference in durability/finish compared to DIY?
Any tips for choosing the right company?
While browsing, I came across this local team that offers a wide range of landscaping services in Coquitlam with project photos and details: https://www.landviewbclandscaping.ca/
Would love to hear your experiences before I finalize my decision. Thanks!
