Maximizing Curb Appeal: Landscaping Tips for Commercial Properties

Draw Attention to the Entrance

The first and most important goal of any landscape should be to provide a welcoming entryway that easily draws people in and directs them to the entrance. This can be done in a number of ways, including using a variety of materials and contrasting colors in your walkways and lining them with flowers, shrubs, and other plants to add an even more beautiful and inviting look. 

Every person who enters your property will have to go through the entrance, so putting the extra effort into the space is one of the best ways that you can maximize your commercial property’s curb appeal. 

Compliment Your Signage With Landscape Enhancements

Another way to boost curb appeal is to use landscape enhancements to complement the property’s signage. The signage on your property plays a crucial role in telling people what your business is. If done well, it can make a great first impression to new customers and employees. 

From seasonal flower beds that can provide an instant color boost that draws eyes to your sign to shrubs and other plants that can provide a lush frame and background for it to sit in front of, going the extra mile to make the most of the landscape around your signage is a no brainer.

Add Variety With Well Maintained Trees, Shrubs, and Flower Gardens

While wide open spaces may provide a certain level of visual appeal in their own right, the lack of variety that comes with them can also be quite boring to many. Using trees, shrubs, flowers, and other landscape features can shake things up. 

Do not go overboard with this. After all, no one wants their property to be completely hidden behind a forest’s worth of trees. You may be surprised to know how much a single, well-placed tree or colorful flower bed can transform a landscape's look. Make sure that you are able to give these features the water, trimming, and other maintenance they need to stay healthy and beautiful.

Keep Your Landscape and Parking Lots Clear of Debris

Nothing can ruin a landscape faster than having a bunch of fallen branches, leaves, and other debris scattered around. Ensuring that the landscape, walkways, and parking areas on your property are free of debris requires little time and effort making it one of the easiest and most simple ways to boost a property’s curb appeal.

Take Good Care of Your Lawn

Lawn maintenance is often one of the first things that people think of when they think of landscaping. In most cases, lawns make up the majority of a property’s landscape, so ensuring that they stay lush and green all year round is crucial to maintaining curb appeal. 

Keeping your lawn well groomed with regular mowing and trimming is a given when it comes to proper lawn care. You will also want to implement proper irrigation, turf fertilization, and weed control measures if you strive to have the perfect lawn.

Ensure Proper Water Management and Drainage

Stormwater management is an often overlooked part of landscape management. Unless you want your landscape to turn into a muddy swamp every time it rains, properly managing this excess water flow is essential. 

From trench drains and other drainage systems to sediment controls, rain gardens, and more, if you want your beautiful landscape to last, you need to think carefully about all of the different ways that you can mitigate flooding and better control the stormwater.
