Hire landscape designer who's licensed, bonded
Ricky Kemery
Q. I had some sewer work done recently, and my small backyard is a mess. I need help with replanting the area, and I am also worried about drainage as there are mounds and sunken areas everywhere. Lots of friends on social media have offered advice and recommendations, but I am unsure if they are qualified to fix these issues.
A. Anyone you hire should be licensed and insured/bonded and have a good reputation and experience locally. It appears as if you are more interested in sustainable landscapes, and there are folks who specialize in that area.
