The landscape design team from Lawn Innovations has helped overhaul hundreds of lawns in the Dayton, OH, area. If you want to add beauty and utility to your lawn, hiring a great lawn maintenance company is key. But there’s a big difference between what a landscaper, landscape architect, and landscape designer can do for your property.

Here’s a handy guide to the three types of lawn professionals from the experienced team at Lawn Innovations:

• Landscapers Offer Maintenance & Planting Services: Standard landscaping companies offer regular lawn maintenance, like pruning and grass cutting, as well as planting services. If you know what you want but don’t want to do the dirty work yourself, a landscaper is a great choice.
• Landscape Designers Offer Specific Blueprints & Planting Plans: Unlike most landscapers, landscape designers typically have a background in horticulture and design. In addition to doing the planting for you, they can help you create a beautiful blueprint and tell you where different plants should be placed for optimal aesthetics and plant growth. 
• Landscape Architects Can Manage Complex Building Projects: If part of your landscape design is to completely alter the terrain of your yard, add in complex decks, or lay down a patio, you may need to hire a landscape architect. Landscape architects are qualified to work in tandem with engineers and traditional architects, so they’re your best bet for ultra-complex lawn renovations.

Before you hire a landscaper, make sure you know exactly what their background is and what they offer their clients. The team at Lawn Innovations offers everything from custom patios, fire pits, and hardscape design to residential and commercial lawn maintenance.
