Finish the exterior after the groundwork is clear

Commercial new-construction landscaping in a workable sequence.

WBS can quote defined landscape scopes for new commercial construction, redeveloped sites, and newly completed managed properties. Plans, completed elevations, trade handoffs, access, materials, and scheduling conditions are reviewed before the preparation and finish work is confirmed.

  • Rough-condition and landscape handoff review
  • Grade and soil preparation within the accepted scope
  • Sod, rock, mulch, and garden-bed installation
  • Cleanup and transitions around completed exterior features

Where this commercial service fits

Treat the landscape as a coordinated construction handoff.

New commercial exterior work depends on more than an install date. Issued information, completed grades, utilities knowledge, site access, other trades, retained surfaces, material requirements, and acceptance responsibilities shape whether the landscape package is ready.

Commercial builders and general contractors

Request pricing for a defined landscape portion once drawings, areas, material requirements, access, and handoff conditions are available.

Owners finishing a new property

Move from rough exterior soil to a usable, maintainable landscape with preparation and finish items stated separately.

Redeveloped commercial sites

Coordinate landscape removal, reshaping, and new finishes around completed improvements that must remain protected.

Managed-property handoffs

Clarify what the builder completed, what the landscape scope includes, and what care or maintenance begins after installation.

What a written scope may include

Translate bid information into accepted landscape responsibilities.

The quote should list areas, quantities or measurement assumptions, preparation, finishes, cleanup, exclusions, and prerequisite work. That keeps a landscape price from silently absorbing civil, structural, underground, or unfinished work by others.

  • Review of supplied plans, areas, access, schedule, and landscape handoff conditions
  • Written identification of included preparation and finish work
  • Soil movement, shaping, or base preparation within scope
  • Sod, decorative rock, mulch, or garden-bed installation as specified
  • Transitions at completed walks, curbs, buildings, fences, and other retained work
  • Landscape cleanup, final review, and applicable establishment guidance

Commercial quote and work sequence

Confirm prerequisites before releasing the finish sequence.

Landscape work can then move from accepted rough conditions through preparation to sod, rock, mulch, or beds without having completed areas repeatedly crossed by unfinished construction.

Send the bid information

Provide the site location, contact, relevant drawings, quantities if available, specified materials, schedule, access, and submission requirements.

Confirm the handoff

WBS reviews which grades, utilities information, structures, exterior surfaces, and other trade items will be complete before landscape work starts.

Price the defined portion

The quote lists the accepted areas, preparation, materials, finishes, cleanup, assumptions, exclusions, and any information still required.

Sequence the installation

Accepted work proceeds around confirmed access and completed prerequisite work, with visible finishes installed after the supporting preparation.

Prepare a commercial construction request

Send a complete bid package and a realistic site handoff.

Plans establish intent; a current construction update establishes readiness. Both are needed to assess a new-build landscape scope responsibly.

  • Site location, responsible contact, relevant issued drawings and specifications, quantities if available, addenda, and submission instructions
  • Required products or acceptable alternatives, finish areas, establishment expectations, and who reviews or accepts completed work
  • Current exterior status, prerequisite grades and surfaces, utilities information supplied for the project, other trades, and protected work
  • Access and staging plan, target start and completion windows, known phasing, occupied-area constraints, and handoff dates

Questions before commercial pricing

Clarify bid inputs, trade handoffs, and scope boundaries.

These answers explain what to submit, how active construction affects timing, and why engineered, civil, or underground work is not included unless explicitly accepted.

Before requesting new-construction landscaping, review how quoting and scheduling work, confirm the Red Deer-to-Edmonton service area, or read the main landscaping FAQ.

Does WBS quote commercial new-construction landscaping?

Yes. WBS can review commercial new-construction landscape scopes involving practical preparation, grading, sod, rock, mulch, beds, and cleanup. Project fit depends on the requirements, size, schedule, access, and completed prerequisites.

What should be included with a commercial quote request?

Send the site location, responsible contact, relevant drawings and specifications, area or quantity information, material requirements, access conditions, target timing, and any submission instructions.

Can WBS coordinate landscape work around other trades?

Scheduling can account for other work when responsibilities, access, completed grades, and handoff dates are clear. Landscape installation should not begin where unfinished work is likely to disturb the prepared areas.

Are engineered, civil, or underground systems included?

Only items specifically accepted in the written landscape scope are included. Engineering, civil work, deep utilities, structural work, specialized systems, testing, and inspections are not implied.
