Landscape Design After a Hurricane in Houston Texas Hou

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008
Jeff Halper asked:


When a Hurricane like Ike blows through your neighborhood and 100 mile an hour winds destroy your prized trees, maybe you loose several tall pines or have a prized oak that gets uplifted. The loss of large trees, storm debris and the damage they do are horrific but as the sky clears there are possibilities to make the new landscape design better than before.

Trees Damage

The first thing after a storm rips through a property is to assess the yard for tree damage. Trees may need special attention to properly prune the canopy shape that may have been damaged or compromised. Landscape lighting fixtures may need to be repaired or relocated to new limbs. Trees that have been uplifted may have root damage and should be seen by a certified tree professional to assess damage and future care, protection and deep root feeding.

Hardscape Damage

These include decks, patios and walkways. Damage here is usually done by fallen trees, uplifted roots, or drainage and water damage. Here it is important to assess whether or not repair can be done to the existing damaged area, if it can be replaced (assuming a match in material is still available) or if new materials that either contrast or compliment the old should be integrated.

Re-landscaping from shade to sun

With tree canopies opened up, trees completely down or existing trees properly pruned to even out the canopies and prevent future storm damage, you may find your garden has more sun than shade. In terms of the landscape design, it would be important to determine which landscape plantings can tolerate more sun and keep those as an overall part of the existing design and replace those plantings that were made for heavy shade. In this way you can keep the overall landscape design and only change the most intolerant plantings to the new sun conditions.

Consulting with a landscape professional

After the devastation of a large hurricane you may want the advice of someone who understands landscape design and installation so you have a coordinated and priority approach to repairs. An experienced landscaper , landscape architect or garden designer will know what contract services to call first, second and third. Also, someone who is in the landscape design and landscape business has strong relationships with subcontractors which can influence the scheduling priority of your work. In addition if more than one service is required, they will know who is reliable and the scheduling involved. A full service landscape design and construction consultant will know:

• Tree arborist

• Large tree removal services

• Tree stump grinding services

• Irrigation repairs

• Drainage repairs

• Landscape lighting and electrical work

• Concrete, brick, stone and other hardscape repair

• Design services to address repairs

New Landscape Design and Planting

If you have several trees that have fallen down and pathways and walks have lifted up from tree roots, it may make much more sense to start over again. Now is a time to think about:

• Now that I have sun in my backyard, how do I want the new landscape design to utilize this space? Lawn, entertainment, seasonal color.

• Do I want to create a better relationship with the garden design and the home

• What types of plants can I now enjoy with the new sun, are there more opportunities?

Commercial Landscape Maintenance in Houston Texas

Monday, June 23rd, 2008
Jeff Halper asked:


Integrity. Professionalism. Fiscal stability. Operating efficiencies. Ethical standards. These concepts are key traits of all top commercial real estate management companies. Not surprisingly, they describe top commercial landscape maintenance companies, as well.

As a commercial property manager or owner, you want to find a commercial landscape maintenance company who will partner with you in reaching your long- and short-term goals. With your daily priorities of meeting the needs and demands of tenants, establishing property security and controlling budgets, time management is critical. Therefore, it will make your job easier to work with a provider who honors your time. Finally, every property is unique, and so you want to work with a landscape service company who will maintain your property so that its strengths are maximized and, just as important, its weaknesses minimized.

Components of a Commercial Landscape Maintenance Program

First, the benefits. A quality maintenance program provides these four advantages:

• Presents a positive image to your customers or tenants and their customers

• Protects your investment

• Extends and retains tenants by maintaining beautiful grounds

• Helps conserve and enhance property value

The basic components of a commercial landscape maintenance program involve:

Landscape design services and installation-

1. Design and installation. In the landscape design phase, a landscape service provider will work with you on the program elements, permitting issues, design approach-including your likes and dislikes-and aesthetics. The next phase may include landscape layout, planting plans and cost studies. In providing landscape services, a true professional should work diligently and patiently to help you define the scope of your project, determine the scheduling, coordinate vendors, assist in the selection of materials, and develop a final budget.

2. Landscape lighting. A well-designed landscape lighting system gives a commercial property 24/7 visibility. Since lighting is a big deterrent of crime, one of the most important services that it delivers is safety, thereby providing an invaluable service to establishments that conduct business at night, such as hotels, country clubs, social clubs, colleges, schools, museums, and restaurants. Ultimately, though, the main propose of landscape lighting is to create a beautiful nighttime vista of the landscape.

3. Irrigation systems. Money savings and convenience are the two main descriptors of an irrigation system. It supplies the appropriate amount of water to the appropriate plant material. It separates the lawn, beds and color areas into different zones that require different watering conditions due to the various plant types and sunlight conditions. Finally, it utilizes controller box technologies, such as timers, time delays and rain sensors, that let you set an automatic schedule based on your landscape needs while, at the same time, allowing you to switch to manual for unplanned events.

4. Drainage systems. With Houston’s heavy soils, low-lying areas and torrential rains, a proper landscape drainage system is essential for three reasons: a) to protect your property from flooding b) to protect the foundation of the building(s) from cracking and uneven shrinkage or swelling c) to properly drain roofs and landscaped areas to avoid standing water that can cause slippery surfaces, breeding grounds for mosquitoes or drowned landscaping. A landscape drainage system should be viewed as a whole to ensure that its appropriate functions and fixtures work together properly.

Regular maintenance-

1. Turf maintenance. One of the most basic features of a commercial landscape maintenance program, turf maintenance is more than just cutting the grass. It is edging, feeding and treating-all activities that promote healthy growth. And it is meticulous clean-up so that your tenants can quickly return to enjoying the grounds once the crew leaves.

2. Trimming hedges and ground covers. As part of a thorough commercial landscape maintenance program, hedges, shrubs and bushes should be trimmed regularly to the desired contours. Ground cover and vines should be edged to maintain a neat appearance. The intention is to ensure that all elements conform to the overall plan of the landscape design.

3. Tree care. A top-notch commercial landscape maintenance company will attend to trees, which are valuable assets. Houston summers can be very stressful for trees, so deep-root fertilization is important because it promotes healthy trees. Aeration also encourages root growth. Trees should be inspected regularly for any insect infestations. Insects, such as pine bark beetles and boring insects, can be tree killers, sometimes striking very quickly, especially when Houston’s weather turns hot or if trees are suffering due to construction duress.

4. Fertilizations. Critical to plant health, regular fertilization is a form of insurance for your plants. Commercial landscape maintenance providers should have a methodical feeding program that insures the health of tropical, acidic and seasonal color plants. The feeding program may also include spring and fall aeration of lawn areas with the application of fall rye grass.

5. Herbicide and insecticide treatments. These programs are also critical to plant health. Continual observation and diagnosis of plant pests and diseases are the last part of a complete and proactive commercial landscape maintenance program.

Seasonal Color-

1. Seasonal plantings are an important part of presenting a positive image for any commercial property. You will want to work with a commercial landscape maintenance company whose extensive knowledge of plant material, color, and texture creates eye-catching designs.

Preventive Maintenance

Preventive maintenance can be your best defense against potential landscape and property damage-or something going wrong just when you need it to go right. In the long run, preventive maintenance saves money.

As a precaution, a professional commercial landscape maintenance company will make periodic surveys of your property to ensure that everything is in good order. Items on the checklist include:

• Tree inspection. Watch for branches touching the building or overhead wires. Dead limbs need to be trimmed to promote vigorous growth. Trees should be regularly checked for disease, decay or wounds and swift action taken as needed.

• Irrigation inspection. It is critical to have irrigation systems working smoothly as proper maintenance minimizes large amounts water pouring out of broken lines and heads. Jeff Halper with Exterior Worlds says, “This service is so important for commercial properties. For some of our clients, it has meant savings of as much as $5,000 to $10,000 per month.”
