As Vale Church headed into its second weekend in a new building, we wanted to share some of the landscaping we installed there. We love seeing our new plants, shrubs and flowers grow alongside this great church, and we’ll continue to maintain the property for many years to come.
Congratulations, Vale Church, and thank you for letting us be part of your big move in our community. We hope the church grows even faster than our plants.
Landscaping A New Commercial Building
New construction sites come with their own challenges: compacted subsoil, little topsoil, and tight timelines tied to an opening date. A good commercial landscape install plans for all three:
- Soil preparation in beds so plants can root into something better than construction fill.
- Hardy, low-maintenance plant choices that handle Central Illinois winters, summer heat and foot traffic near entrances.
- Irrigation so new plantings survive their first summers; see commercial irrigation.
- A plan for maintenance from day one, so the property looks as good in year five as it did at the ribbon cutting.
Keeping It Looking Great
Churches, offices and other community buildings make a first impression every week. Our grounds maintenance crews handle mowing, bed care, pruning and seasonal color, and our snow removal team keeps lots and walks open through the winter. The photos here are from F&W commercial projects.
