We hope this guide gives you the information you need to make the best choice when it comes to hiring, evaluating and working with a professional pool or landscape contractor. Before you consider hiring any pool or landscape contractor, ask them these questions and ask them to provide all the documents to support their answers. We live by our guide. We know this sets a standard that we can be proud of, and that the majority of our competitors can't match. Upon request, we will gladly provide you with our proof of compliance. Note that an unusually low price usually means that the contractor has cut some corners on quality. To insure that you get the best deal, make sure that the contractor you hire complies with every question. We are San Antonio's landscaping company. We offer infinite possibilities from pergolas and pools to patios and plants. You've invested countless hours in the search for the perfect home. Now that you are happy with your dream house, you settle in and notice the front and backyard need something -- perhaps a nice flower bed for the front with pottery and native plants or for the backyard, putting a green or waterless pond. You may want to go all out and have a backyard oasis created that includes a swimming pool with custom landscaping and an outdoor kitchen, or you may just want a simple stamped concrete patio installed for entertaining. There is no concept the designers at Artscapes can't help you with. Best of all, we'll keep within your budget and inform you of your costs up-front with no surprises; we promise.
