Landscape consultants are an integral part of establishing a successful and healthy landscape, either before or after construction. At Sutton Consulting Arborists, we've worked with companies and individual homeowners to redesign and rehabilitate landscapes; we can also perform appraisals to help determine a particular landscape's value. Landscape survey and mapping is a very useful tool for a company's management in terms of its value for future insurance claims, as well as for predicting hazards and future landscaping costs.

From landscape appraisals to surveys and mapping, we can provide a wide variety of valuable consulting services. We've helped La Preserve (a premier housing development in Fort Lauderdale) create a community with more recreational space, lakes, and open green space than other city neighborhoods. Our landscape consulting here involves tree inventory, grading of the property's trees, management of tree preservation efforts, removal and relocation of existing trees, as well as the design and placement of relocated material. We can also help you with any of these services.

Which Vegetation Is Right for Your Property?
Landscape consulting also entails ensuring the right trees or plants are used in a particular location. Soil sometimes has to be amended before particular plants can be planted; if the soil is shallow or compacted, it will affect the growth of many plant species. The purpose of the tree should also be taken into consideration--do you want a tree to provide fruit, shade, or simply a pleasant background? What level of maintenance can you provide? We can work with you to help you plan a landscape that not only fits in with your desired look, but also fits in with the soil conditions and lighting attributes of your property.

As your landscape consultants, we can also help you care for the plants and trees on your property. We can help you set up a maintenance schedule for your landscaping, and can even provide you with a map of your property that details the exact location and relative health of the various components of your landscape.
