When’s the Best Time to Start Landscaping?

The best time to start planning is now — especially if you’re building a new home. Even if construction isn’t finished, early planning helps ensure a smooth transition from house to garden.

At Unearthed Landscapes, we recommend starting design conversations well before you’re ready to build. This gives time to refine ideas, confirm pricing, and book in work. Autumn and spring are ideal for planting, while hardscaping, earthworks, and construction can happen year-round with the right planning.

If your garden is existing, starting the conversation with a site consult now allows us to help you figure out the best timeline for your specific project — and make sure your landscaping is done right, without rushing or cutting corners.
