Price

What drives the cost of landscape design in Sylvan Lake

  • Property size and how much of the yard is included
  • Level of detail: concept sketch vs full construction plan
  • Number of revision rounds and meetings
  • Grading, drainage or lighting plans added to planting design
  • 3D renderings or presentation drawings
  • Whether the design fee is credited toward installation
  • The age of the home: the typical Sylvan Lake home was built around 1956, so older materials, lead-safe rules and hidden damage can add time

Before you hire in Sylvan Lake

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in Sylvan Lake was built around 1956. Painting, window, siding and remodeling work that disturbs paint in homes built before 1978 must follow the EPA lead-safe (RRP) rule. Ask any contractor for their RRP certification before work starts.

Older plumbing and sewer lines

58% of homes here were built before 1960, when cast iron drains, clay sewer laterals and galvanized supply pipe were standard. A sewer camera inspection before buying or remodeling is cheap insurance.

Permits: check with the Sylvan Lake building department before work starts.

  • Confirm how many revisions are included.
  • Ask the designer to flag items that need permits or engineering.
