Good design is one thing. Good engineering is something no one talks about.
80% of the jobs done will be spending major money in 3-5 years. This is just a sad fact. Too easy for someone with no real education in REAL landscaping, to get a few easy power lines to answer all your questions and sell you a job. What? your neighbor/ frien used them and they did great? Oh, but your neighbor/ friend is calling another landscaper in 3 years because the 'great' landscape had poor engineering and installation practices. Escapes or Jamie's in my opinion. The rest just wish they knew what they were doing, but are enjoying the easy money.
