Common Questions
What is the first step in the landscape design process at Sylvia's Landscape?
It starts with a consultation to understand your vision, the unique characteristics of your Winnetka property, and your budget. With over 25 years of experience, I work closely with you to develop a design plan that balances aesthetics, functionality, and long-term sustainability, ensuring your investment enhances your home for years to come.
My shrubs are struggling or dying. Can you help diagnose and fix the problem?
Absolutely. Unhealthy plantings are a common issue in our area, often due to soil conditions, drainage, or improper species selection. We assess the health of your existing landscape, identify the cause, and provide solutions. This could involve soil amendments, strategic replanting with hardy native species, or adjusting irrigation to create a more resilient garden.
Do you handle storm cleanup and landscape restoration?
Yes. Following the severe weather common in the North Shore, we provide efficient storm debris cleanup and landscape restoration services. We carefully remove fallen branches and debris, assess any damage to plants and hardscapes, and develop a plan to repair and restore your outdoor space to its pre-storm condition or better.
