The area gets around 771 mm of rain per year. Roos sits at about 17 m above sea level. The climate in Roos averages 10.6°C a year, with January around 5.1°C and July near 16.3°C.
Call the local utility locator before any digging deeper than 300 mm to avoid hitting gas, water, or electrical lines. Retaining walls over 1 m tall often require a permit and engineered plans. Tree removal near power lines should never be handled by a general landscaper without certification. Ask for proof of liability insurance covering property damage and worker injuries on site.
Patios need a base of compacted crushed stone at least 100 mm thick topped with 30 mm of bedding sand to avoid sinking. Borders should sit 10 mm above the turf to allow easy mowing without scalping. French drains 150 mm wide filled with gravel resolve most backyard puddles. Request a slope of 2 percent away from the house foundation to protect walls.
Most flowering shrubs should be pruned within 2 weeks after blooming ends, not on a calendar schedule. Cuts larger than 25 mm in diameter on trees benefit from a sealing compound and must follow the branch collar. Avoid topping cuts, which stress the plant and cause weak regrowth. Request that the crew disposes of clippings and never leaves stubs above 10 mm.
Landscaping includes lawn care, pruning, planting, irrigation repairs, mulching, and small earthworks like leveling or building a raised bed. Ask for a written list that separates ongoing maintenance from one-time work. Confirm whether the quote covers debris removal, because hauling branches or old sod often adds a separate fee. Get the area measured in square meters before signing anything.
Patio and walkway quotes depend on base preparation, material thickness and access for a wheelbarrow or mini excavator. A 30 m² flagstone patio with 10 cm of compacted crushed stone base and polymeric sand joints typically takes 4 to 6 working days for a 3 person crew.
Annuals give colour for 1 season but need replacement yearly. Perennials cost more up front yet return for 3 to 7 years. Ask which species suit your soil pH and sun exposure, and request a planting plan on paper showing spacing in centimeters, not just a rough sketch.
A weekly visit covers mowing at 7 to 10 cm height, edging along hard surfaces, line trimming around trunks, blowing clippings off pavement and a quick weed pull in beds. Fertilising, pest control and hedge shaping are billed separately, so confirm in writing what each visit delivers before signing.
Ask who supervises the crew on site, what happens if a plant dies within 30 days, and whether the contract includes a maintenance plan with monthly visits. Request copies of insurance, licenses for pesticide application, and a written warranty on installed materials. Clarify payment terms, since reputable landscapers rarely request more than 30 percent upfront before work begins.
Low bids often skip soil preparation, use thin mulch layers under 30 mm, or schedule only 4 visits per season instead of the 6 to 8 that warm-season turf needs. Hidden fees appear for edging, leaf cleanup, or hauling. Ask each bidder to list the exact number of visits, cuts per visit, and services included, then compare line by line, not by total price alone.
A 50 to 75 mm layer of shredded bark mulch suppresses weeds, holds moisture, and regulates soil temperature around plant roots. Avoid piling mulch against the trunk, since volcano mulching causes rot and attracts pests. Topsoil should be tested for pH before planting acid-loving species like blueberries or azaleas. Ask whether compost is being mixed in or just surface-applied without incorporation.
