Explanation of Design Services and Fees

Recognizing that excellent landscape design is critical for projects of all sizes, we offer a range of design services:

• The In-Store Design Consultation is recommended for small do-it-yourself
  projects in which design solutions can be generated without visiting your property. Please bring pictures, measurements and a sketch of the area to be worked on.
  
  Our experienced garden center staff will show you the recommended plants and materials, assist you in selection and, if desired, arrange for delivery.
  
  The fee for this service is $50 and is returned to you in the form of a $50 Sargent’s gift card.

• The On-Site Consultation is recommended for projects of limited area and complexity. In these situations the design solutions can be communicated verbally or with a quick sketch.
  
  A designer will meet you on-site to review the area(s) you need help with. They’ll offer suggestions or draw a quick sketch and provide approximate cost estimates for materials and labor. The designer can also offer basic do-it-yourself instructions and, if desired, make arrangements for delivery of materials.
  
  The fee for this service is $100 and is fully refundable with a minimum of $500 in installation costs or purchases at either Sargent’s location within one year of the consultation.

• The Landscape Plan Service is recommended for comprehensive projects that require design solutions which need to be communicated using a detailed, scaled drawing.
  
  With this service, one of our designers will walk your property with you and discuss what your needs and desires are. After the meeting they will measure and photograph the site as necessary. Finally, the designer will prepare a landscape plan and cost estimate listing all materials, labor and equipment necessary to build the project.
  
  The fee for this service begins at $300 and is fully refundable with a minimum of $1500 in installation costs or purchases within one year of completion of the design.
  
  A particularly extensive project may require a slightly higher design fee. This will be determined by the designer after assessing the scope of the project on-site.
