As a trusted commercial landscaping company in Calgary, we at Mirage understand the many benefits a well-maintained business property provides. A visually appealing landscape that functions well creates a positive impression for employees, clients, and potential customers, and lets visitors know that you are serious about attention to detail. This, in turn, instills confidence and trust in your services.
Beautiful commercial landscaping makes your business property stand out from competitors, attracts attention, and increases foot traffic. It also plays a part in your brand image. A carefully crafted commercial landscaping design can align with your company’s values and reinforce its identity, allowing you to further resonate with your target audience and the surrounding community. By encouraging people to spend time outdoors on your property, you are helping to promote social interaction and develop positive relationships with your neighbours.
If you also own the property on which your business stands, great commercial landscaping can even result in higher property appraisals.
Key qualities of a good commercial landscaping company
If you are on the hunt for a commercial landscaping company, those that are able to display the following qualities (such as us at Mirage) will be the ones to provide you the most satisfaction with their work.
Expertise and experience
A reputable commercial landscaping company should have a team of experienced professionals who possess in-depth knowledge and skills in landscape maintenance and construction. Mirage has been a family-owned company for three generations, and we have decades more experience among our dedicated and talented staff. Our people stay with us because we provide opportunities for professional growth and development as well as continuous safety and equipment training, fair wages, and benefits. We know that the longer we are able to keep our great employees the more beneficial it is for our customers, and so their job satisfaction is top of mind for us at all times.
Good communication
Good communication with our clients is the foundation of what we do at Mirage. If you are planning a landscape redesign or considering a landscape construction project, we are there with you every step of the way through the process: from the conceptualization of the plan to its final execution. We expect a high level of professionalism from our employees, and that means adhering to schedules and design concepts and a commitment to delivering quality work. In fact, we always 100% guarantee our results.
Strong work ethic
A good commercial landscaping company must display a strong work ethic, as this is what gets projects done on time and within our high standards. We show up on time and fully prepared, with all the necessary tools, equipment, and materials ready to go, plus employees who are ready and willing to roll up their sleeves and work hard.
Creativity and attention to detail
Landscape maintenance and construction is intricate work that requires very specific attention to detail. Sure, we use a lot of big tools and heavy equipment, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be operated with the utmost care and attention. We know that overall impressions can be marred by even the smallest omission or mistake, which is why we train our employees to take ownership over every job. Every plant, stone, brick, and landscape feature is meticulously placed and installed.
Adaptability
Our commercial landscaping clients can be confident in that our experience and expertise also allows us to be completely adaptable when needed. We know that sometimes plans change and we have the problem-solving skills to handle unforeseen circumstances effectively. There really is no obstacle we can’t overcome when beautifying our clients’ properties.
Sustainable practices
With growing environmental concerns, a reputable commercial landscaping company should prioritize sustainable landscaping. This includes using eco-friendly materials, installing water-efficient irrigation systems, promoting native plants, and practicing responsible waste management.
Sustainable landscaping also includes such practices as companion planting, using mulch, leaving areas of your property to “go natural,” xeriscaping, and planting for food.
Insurance and licenses
Our commercial landscaping clients can feel confident in that we at Mirage are fully insured and licensed. This protects both us and you from any potential liabilities. When searching for a commercial landscaping company, always ask to see appropriate documentation.
Good reviews
It really only takes a few minutes to do some homework and check out the reviews for a commercial landscaping company you may be interested in doing business with. Keep in mind that companies that refuse to be reviewed online are likely protecting themselves against negative commentary. Companies that are happy to have their customers talk about them, and who react quickly and appropriately when criticism arises, are the ones you want to deal with.
