What project details are required before landscaping begins?

Clear and accurate property information is needed before any landscaping work gets underway. Buksh Landscapes asks for measurements, layout details, and any available site drawings so the design and quotation fit your space like a glove. These are usually provided by your builder, architect, or developer. If they are not on hand, our team can point you in the right direction so nothing slips through the cracks.

How should I care for my newly installed turf or lawn?

Water your lawn right after installation so both the grass and soil underneath stay nicely moist.
Water daily during the first week, then every second day during the second week. After two weeks, watering can usually be scaled back to once a week or as needed depending on weather. These steps help roots take hold and keep the lawn looking fresh. Hot or windy days may call for extra watering. Skipping these steps can affect growth and may void warranty coverage.
Try to stay off freshly laid turf. Too much walking can press the soil down and disturb root growth or leave footprints because of moisture below the surface. Once the two week settling period is over and the ground feels firm, normal use is perfectly fine.

How much watering does a fresh lawn require?

A handy trick is to place a small cup or container on the lawn and water until about one inch collects inside. Rainfall can be checked the same way since light rain often does not provide enough moisture. Make sure sprinklers are not drenching nearby plants or flower beds, as too much water can harm roots and may lead to plant loss that is not covered under warranty.

How should newly installed garden plants be maintained?

Fresh plants need a little time and care to settle into their new home. Water thoroughly when planting and check soil moisture several times each week. The amount of water required depends on soil type, drainage, and temperature. Water only when the soil feels dry about 5 cm below the surface. Overwatering can drown roots and damage plants, which is not covered under warranty.

How do I care for newly planted feature or shade trees?

Trees should be watered well right after planting so the root ball is fully soaked and the soil settles snugly around it. If the top few inches of soil feel dry, water slowly and deeply so moisture reaches the roots. Deep watering helps trees grow strong roots compared to quick surface watering. Checking soil regularly is the best guide for timing.
Look at the soil around the base twice a week. Keep the area tidy by removing weeds and fallen leaves, and gently loosen the top layer once or twice a month. Avoid piling mulch directly against the trunk during the first year.
During warm weather, trees usually appreciate weekly watering, though soil condition should always guide you. If the weather turns cool and rainy for several days, watering may not be needed. Paying attention to soil moisture makes all the difference.

How should patios, paving, or stone features be maintained?

Hardscape areas like patios, walkways, and stone features need a bit of upkeep now and then to stay in top shape. Joint material between stones can settle or wash away over time, especially where gaps are wider. If joints start to look low, refill them with matching sand or polymeric sand following product directions to keep everything steady and neat.

What type of materials are used in your landscaping projects?

Materials come from trusted suppliers known for reliable quality and performance. This includes paving products, soil mixes, plants, turf, aggregates, and installation supplies chosen to suit each project. Using dependable materials helps ensure the final result looks great and stands the test of time.

What is covered under your service warranty?

Problems are uncommon, but if something related to workmanship pops up, it is handled quickly under our workmanship assurance. Examples include shifting pavers or structural movement that does not match the approved design. Even with careful preparation, settlement in newly filled soil or around foundations is outside contractor control and not covered. Hardscape work includes a two-year coverage period from completion.
Turf and plant materials are covered for one year from installation. Grass may not thrive in deep shade, near walls, or in high traffic spots, which can affect growth.
Warranty does not apply to issues caused by poor maintenance, pests, disease, or not following care instructions. Proper watering and regular attention keep everything in good shape. For full details, check the Terms and Conditions page or reach out to our team for guidance.
