Natural Elements DOES NOT build water gardens for its clients, but we can be of assistance to you in the theme and overall design of your water garden, assist you in overseeing the actual construction and completion of the water garden, and help with the final placement of plantings and garden accessories in and around the water garden. Most tasks range from $30 to $50 per hour. Contact us to discuss costs on your project.
What can Natural Elements do for you as consultants?
- Natural Elements can help you determine the initial design, develop a budget, and interview and hire contractors who will do the work. We can assist you in monitoring the work through to completion.
- Natural Elements can help with the selection of plants in tune with your design, as well as provide assistance in the actual purchase of plants. We can go to garden centers and nurseries with you to pick out plants, or we can catalog shop with you.
- Natural Elements can help you fit the water garden design and plantings into the overall landscape of your property.
- Natural Elements can help you determine the supplies and accessories you need after construction and planting, narrowing the field of thousands orf traditional and non-traditional suppliers on the market.
- In short, Natural Elements can save you time, money and stress as you develop and build your new water garden feature. Knowledgeable help on the front-end translates to maximum enjoyment for you and your family and friends on the back-end.
