"Eric responded immediately to my e-mail request for landscape design. He met with us and we went over what we wanted to do and he offered suggestions on how to improve the landscape. His designer than completed a plat showing the plants selected and their position. After reviewing the design and the estimate we met with Eric again to make some minor adjustments. His crew came out and worked a very long day in removing the existing plantings and preparing the front yard for the turf. The sprinkler sub-contractor, H20 Sprinkler Systems, was very efficient and meticulous in adjsuting the sprinkler patterns, adding new heads and replacing bad ones. H20 also did the drainage and sump pump work. The stone work for the bed edging was very professional and the crew worked extremely well with us in making some minor variations as the work was ongoing. The turf and plants were installed in one day with a 4 man crew who worked probably 13 hours straight. A flagstone walkway was also installed in the front yard in an area that gets very little sunshine. We are extremely pleased with how the process went from start to finish and the yard looks fantastic. I highly recommend MetroTex Landscape and Eric in doing any landscape work. We will be using him again soon to install new landscape lighting and later to complete the work in the back yard. Eric and his crew and subs are all very courteous, prompt, and hard working."

6 employees. Uses Licensed subs for irrigation, lighting, brick work and carpentry. You plant around your design, not design around your plants. Confusing? Upon meeting with a new client, most people will typically tell me of their favorite plant(s). Putting plants in the lead position of the design process will guarantee you a landscape that resembles your neighbors and every other house on the street and across the community. It’s like determining the colors you will use in your new house and you haven’t yet designed the house! Like colours, plants are a medium. You must provide context in order to give meaning. This is the hardscape or ‘bones’ referred to in garden literature. Be it a simple graveled path, a grouping of boulders, or obedient deference to existing topography, this is what will provide year-round interest. It is also the framework that will suggest and therefore help you choose which plants and their placement. The end result is an aesthetic and harmonious integration of hardscape and softscape elements. The Walkabout Way acknowledges the on-site environmental realities (ecozone, drainage, sun, shade etc..) and integrating these along with the clients desired outside intentions (active/passive use) as the basis for formulating a design theme. The end result is a naturalistic approach that is environmentally and ecologically sensitive, yet aesthetically pleasing regardless of the season.

Look for walls that run perpendicular to floor joists, directly above foundation walls, or other walls stacked above them on upper floors. Walls with large beams or posts are load-bearing. However, visual inspection alone isn't always reliable. The safest approach is to consult with a structural engineer or experienced contractor who can examine your home's construction, possibly review building plans, or perform small exploratory openings to make a definitive determination.
Most municipalities require permits for wall removal, especially for load-bearing walls. These permits ensure that structural changes meet building codes and safety standards. Even non-load-bearing wall removal might require permits if electrical or plumbing modifications are involved. The permitting process includes submitting plans, paying fees, and scheduling inspections. Working without required permits can result in fines, complications when selling your home, and potential insurance issues if problems arise later.
A non-load-bearing wall removal project might take only one to two days for demolition and basic cleanup. Load-bearing wall projects require three to five days or more, depending on the complexity and need for structural support installation. The timeline will extend if your project involves rerouting utilities or extensive finishing work. Larger projects in multi-story homes may take up to two weeks to complete. Additionally, obtaining permits can add several weeks to your project timeline before work begins.
