"OGS - The guys did a fantastic job – I'm absolutely delighted with the results. Mike is a real artist. Mike and talked about him coming back next spring to condition the pond correctly and to plant some plants. I'll look forward to that. Great job, thanks again." ~ Nina K.

QUESTIONNAIRE: LET'S GET STARTED
OGS Landscape Services needs your help!
Before any good designer can begin, there are a few things that you as the client need to consider.
A patio is not ‘just a patio’ if you entertain 10 people frequently, and the patio only sits 6 comfortably. It becomes a disappointment, and we at OGS Landscape Services like to anticipate your lifestyle so that we can design with it in mind.
A few moments of consideration to answer the following questions will help us give you exactly what you’re looking for … and feel confident to leave the design part up to us!
|
Let’s get started!
When we meet, we will discuss your answers, take measurements of the area(s) involved, and with permission take a few pictures. (Please note that it is extremely rare for a landscape design to be completed on site.)
We realize that not all questions will apply to everyone, but if you could take note of the answers to questions that do apply, we will be able to serve you better.
Thank-you

Plant Selection
Gardens can make a landscape complete by softening the stone and creating a more natural setting. They do not need to be elaborate, but the right plants in the right place can create a wonderful and relaxing atmosphere in the landscape!
How much you landscape is optional to everyone! Some clients like us to prepare the garden beds only, while others like them to be planted, and still a few others don't want a garden at all!
