Landscaping Services: A Love Letter to People Who Know What They’re Doing
Opening: After my third failed attempt at "simple" patio landscaping (RIP, uneven pavers), I’ve accepted the truth: some things require professionals. Like, say, anything involving levels, weights, or living plants.
The Problem: My DIY enthusiasm often outpaces my skills. The "charming rustic path" I built now looks like a drunk stonecutter’s fever dream. My "water feature" is just a perpetually clogged birdbath.
The Discovery: Got lost in Griffins’ services page while fantasizing about a yard that doesn’t embarrass me: Our Landscaping Services. The hardscaping section made me realize professionals use actual engineering – not just hope and spare bricks.
Takeaways:
Proper base materials prevent the "sinking patio" effect
Drainage planning is a thing (whoops)
There are plants that actually thrive here (not just the ones I think are pretty)
Closing: This summer, I might finally call in reinforcements. My dignity – and my back – will thank me.
