Sound Landscaping Ecology
Lower maintenance costs and a thriving landscape depend on things that most homeowners
never see.
Landscaping plans that take site resources and situations
into consideration yield consistently 'happier' and more successful outdoor spaces: proper soil
characterization, amendment and site planning increase vitality and ease of care, while proper landscape design and installation
of irrigation components allow water to be used more efficiently and for the greatest benefit.
Water Management and Irrigation
Water conservation is an important aspect in Fort Collins landscapes and in the arid Colorado climate,
so Waterwise offers cost-saving irrigation options, specialized plant recommendations and
Xeriscaping. Waterwise provides service and installation of irrigation systems that
include both residential and commercial properties. Our techs are up to date on the latest technologies and understand the intricacies
of systems both new and old.
We utilize the latest technologies on our new installs. This includes using a wireless controller called a “Rachio” system.
This device connects the client’s irrigation system to a powerful cloud-based system. The benefits of having a cloud-based controller
is that the user will automatically receive the most up to date information on weather patterns that will affect the water requirements
of your outdoor living space.
Soil and Plant Health
In order for plantings to thrive, the soils must first be characterized and amended for
proper pH and nutrient balance. Then, we ensure a healthy landscape for years to come by applying proper mulching and
fertilizing techniques.
Ecologically Minded Products
Environmental impact and
green landscaping practices
are a priority for us, and for many of our clients as well, so we utilize ecologically safe products
and practices whenever possible, and make the extra effort to incorporate homeowners' special requests.
