6 Reasons Why Regular Landscape Maintenance Matters
The Value of Regular Landscape Maintenance
Vacillating through the grueling Friday rush hour gridlock on the north Dallas Tollway following yet another 80-hour work week, you long for the solace of your serene veranda. As your Range Rover careens down Royal Lane, you rejoice, recalling that today was your first estate management service with Bonick Landscaping. Easing up the basalt gravel drive, you marvel at the vivid, variegated snapdragons and salvia, freshly planted in your cast stone containers. Prismatic petunias, geraniums, and fountain grass spill over your pristinely groomed garden beds, and the faint scent of freshly mowed grass lingers. After changing into comfortable clothes, you ascend the back steps, cradling a cocktail in hand, and recline in a lounge chair before the children return from soccer. The soothing harmonies of horned owls and songbirds intermingle with the delicate dance of wind chimes as the fragrant plumes of wisteria waft through the breeze. This is the life. This is exactly why you enlisted in regular landscape maintenance.
1. Enjoy a Life of Leisure
Many dream of a low-maintenance landscape, however low maintenance is not no maintenance—everything requires care. Concrete needs to be periodically power-washed; artificial turf requires regular raking, ground covers such as grasses or gravel must be cleared of occasional debris. The only real way to experience a low-maintenance landscape is to create a custom plan of concierge services and leave the regular landscape maintenance to us. The net result is the sublime scenario above enjoyed on repeat.
2. Preserve Your Investment
Did you know that on average, investing in high-quality landscape design for your home can extend its resale value to 15-20% or more? In fact, the most lucrative landscaping projects that marry extended living space with low-maintenance gardens can even increase your estate’s value by 30%. Combine that regular landscape maintenance and our current real estate trends, and that is a recipe for ideal returns.

3. Enhance Your Estate’s Beauty
Seasonal color enhancements can be included as part of your concierge services. Imagine picturesque pops of year-round beautiful blooms surrounding your sanctuary. Delightful annuals and ornamentals are an easy way to change up your scenery with the seasons just as you do with your decor. From begonias and zinnias to pumpkins and cabbages, appending splashes of chromatic color installations add awe striking curb appeal and resplendent refuge to your estate.
4. Sustain Your Garden’s Longevity
A gorgeous garden design is only as good as it’s care. Regular landscape maintenance ensures that you can experience sensational surroundings year-round. Our knowledgeable experts possess the ability to forecast the future of a design and properly care for plants as they grow. This includes pruning, feeding, and nurturing every aspect of your landscape. We also practice responsible water management that strikes a nuanced balance between nourishing your gardens and conserving our natural resources. Water management is both an art and a science—while it’s impossible to design the perfect smart sprinkler system for every plant, over the years, we’ve developed a lot of practice and have learned how to adjust accordingly.
5. Prevent Potential Hazards
With over 40 years of redefining service, our landscape professionals are veterans in combatting the challenges that Mother Nature throws at them. Between the intense summer heat, pest and disease problems, and unpredictable winters with sometimes 50-degree temperature differentials, having trained professionals who understand how your landscape reacts to such uncertainty is crucial. Your landscape concierge services include a personal garden manager, who is a trained horticulturist with extensive plant knowledge to determine which plants are suited for what areas of your yard, how to care for them and diagnose and treat disease. We pride ourselves in a proactive approach to monitoring for pests and diseases rather than springing into action after a problem has already taken over. We only treat as needed because treating preventatively only devours our already delicate environment.
6. Nurture Your Relationship with Nature
When we’re kind to our environment, it returns the thank you and it’s kind to us. Hiring sustainability experts to perform professional landscape maintenance helps harness nature’s natural powers. From knowing which native and well-adapted plants to incorporate to create an ecosystem for beneficial bugs and wildlife, to navigating how to properly plant in layers to protect our pollinators, our trained team can create a sustainable environment from your natural surroundings. Creating and maintaining a climate-resilient garden can not only boost sustainability, but it can help to do your part in protecting our natural habitat by mitigating climate change. Plus, your gardens will become more resilient to our unpredictable weather.
