1. What is a Landscape Designer?

Landscape Designers are professionals trained to provide design ideas for the outdoors. We provide Landscape Plans, Planting Plans and Lighting Plans. Landscape Designers provide the conceptual ideas for the hardscape layout, irrigation plans, and the concepts for garden structures such as walls, overheads, outdoor kitchens and more. A Landscape Designer works mostly with Residential Landscape Design.

2. Why choose a Landscape Designer?

There are many reasons to use a Landscape Designer. I believe the following are the most important reasons:

·  Formal Education: Landscape Designers are educated to analyze the property architecturally, environmentally and aesthetically. My education is a Bachelor of Science in Landscape Architecture- my degree focused on Horticulture, Design, Construction, Irrigation, grading & drainage, and Soil Science. Landscape Designers can determine site specific solutions to problems or opportunities specific to your site using education, experience and imagination and incorporate your needs into an aesthetic outdoor space. They also discuss appropriate materials for the budget, site and design goal.

·  Design Process:  a Landscape Designer listens to your specific needs and creates a plan to allow the visualization of your needs.

·  Construction Documents: these are clear instructions of your landscape for a landscape contractor to install from. This helps avoid disappointment in the final landscape if designed as you go. It also helps avoid higher installation costs or costs associated with change orders, modifications to your design ideas or re-work. This also allows a project to be built in phases per your budget.

·  Homeowner Advocate: Landscape Designers work with the Homeowner and the Landscape Contractor to maintain the work is built and installed correctly and per local laws and codes. That no short cuts are made that affect the integrity of the finished product.

3. Do you have the Education and expertise I need to design the outdoor space I want?

I graduated in 1998 with a Bachelor of Science in Landscape Architecture from Washington State University. Upon Graduation I worked in the field doing Landscape Installation and Landscape Maintenance. This experience was invaluable to me to see hands on what can make a landscape design successful- both aesthetically after installation and from a maintenance stand point. I took that experience with me over 10 years ago and have applied it to my job as a Landscape Designer. I have designed numerous residential projects as well as Multi- Family Projects, Community Parks, Streetscapes, and Schools.

4. What services are you limited to provide me as a Landscape Designer?

There are limitations to what Hammett Design can provide for you as a Landscape Design Company. While I can provide the design ideas and concepts for a variety of situations that might occur in your residential design, sometimes Engineers and Architects might be needed to complete your design needs. Such limitations occur when working with retaining severe slopes or when major grading and drainage occur. Architects would be needed if the design would be enhanced if the home were incorporated into the exterior design. Once I meet with you and discuss your ideas and see your property I will be able to determine when other design professionals are needed.

5. What type of Landscape Design projects can I provide for you?

Hammett Design can provide Landscape Design services for a multitude of projects. I specialize in Residential, any lot size from a small Garden Patio to a home with acreage. I can provide renovation of existing landscapes or new construction. I also work with Light commercial properties wishing to update the current landscaped areas. Please look at my portfolio for the range of projects.

6. How much will it cost for a Landscape Design?

Because of the wide range of services that Hammett Design might provide for you, it is too difficult to determine a price prior to meeting with you. I do offer a free consultation to meet with you and review the scope of services you are interested in. From there we will be able to determine the price of your Landscape Design.

7. Will you provide Landscape Design where I live?

Hammett Design is based in Carmichael, CA and can easily work on projects in a 60 mile radius. But depending on the scope of work you need, I probably am able to provide you Landscape Design Services where you live if it outside that immediate area. Please give me a call to discuss your project.

8. What are your hours of Operation?

Monday through Friday 8am - 5pm.  For more information or to arrange a meeting, please call (916) 972-1947, send an email or click here for our online information request form.
