Frequently Asked Questions

As a Denver homeowner with a struggling lawn, how can ALCC member firms help with irrigation and bare patches?

ALCC member firms are experts in addressing common local issues like faulty irrigation timers and bare lawn patches. They start with a professional assessment of your system and soil. For timers, they can upgrade to smart, weather-based controllers that automatically adjust watering for Denver's conditions, preventing over- or under-watering. For bare patches, they diagnose the cause—which could be soil compaction, drainage, or improper watering—and provide solutions like aeration, soil amendment, or reseeding with drought-tolerant grasses suited to our climate. Their focus is on creating a resilient, healthy landscape that uses water responsibly.

What is the advantage of hiring an ALCC member for a landscape design project in Colorado?

Hiring an ALCC member firm ensures you're working with a landscape professional committed to the highest standards in the industry. These firms have specific qualifications and a deep understanding of Colorado's unique climate and water challenges. Whether you need a full greenscape design, a new patio, or a water-efficient irrigation plan, they create designs that are not only beautiful but also sustainable and built to last. As part of an association focused on raising professionalism since 1959, you benefit from their collective expertise, adherence to best practices, and focus on maximizing your investment through responsible resource use.

Does ALCC only work with large commercial properties, or can they help with residential projects?

ALCC serves a wide range of clients, including Denver homeowners, urban dwellers, and gardeners. While our 700+ member firms do serve commercial properties and property managers, a significant portion of their work is residential. Whether you're looking to renovate an existing garden, design and install a new landscape, or create special features like a xeriscape or outdoor living area, ALCC can connect you with a qualified local professional. The association provides resources to help homeowners understand the value of professional landscaping, from initial design through long-term maintenance, with an emphasis on saving water and protecting your investment.
