How to talk to a Landscape Contractor: “Demo”

Here’s the first in a series of landscaping definitions. Sometimes a landscaper who’s worked in the industry for years will drop confusing jargon pertaining to the specifics of landscaping. Here we want to help clarify some of that terminology over the course of a few new blog entries.

Landscape Demolition

What does “Demo” mean?

Our word for today is “Demo.”  This is a shortening of the word “demolition” and can range from pulling out pre-existing plants and turf, to an extensive excavation to prepare for a landscape remodel.

Some “demos” are delicate and require manual removal, whereas concrete removal requires the use of tractors and tools like jackhammers.

Basic Demo usually only takes a day once the plans have been finalized and the property is ready.  More intense demo projects can take more than one day, but it’s always easier to tear things apart than build them up!

Next time you need some landscape demolition, remember TRU Landscape Services the only name you need to know in Orange County Landscape.
