Landscapes, Lawns, & Lies: How to Avoid Shady Practices That Cost You Time, Money and More

So, you've decided to embark on a landscape project! Now who do you call to lend you a hand? A landscaper? A landscape architect? A landscape designer? A landscape contractor? What criteria would you use to select that landscape professional? Have you considered the potential risks and how to mitigate them? Landscape professionals, John and Sondra Wright, help answer these questions and more in their informative book, Landscapes, Lawns, and Lies. With over thirty years of experience in all aspects of landscape construction, design, and property management the Wrights are here to impart invaluable, indispensable advice as only industry insiders can. Through its demonstrative style and entertaining scenarios, Landscapes, Lawns, and Lies directly confronts the many preconceptions, deceptions, and misconceptions consumers face in selecting a landscape professional. Learn from C. D. Guy, the nefarious owner of a sketchy landscaping company, how to spot a bad deal from a mile off, and explore the unnecessary risks so many property owners take that land them in a jam, or worse, endanger themselves or others. From doing business on a handshake to underestimating what a DIY project really takes, seemingly small actions present major consequences in the world of Landscapes, Lawns & Lies.
