Looking To "borrow" Some Ideas


Any of you guys have any landscaping software that can make some different landscaping options so I could see something before I went out and just bought materials and beat my head against the wall if it doe'sn turn out like i want, not to mention when it comes to landscaping ideas I'm kinda dead in the water.

This will be for my personal house and there are some other issues I'm dealing with so I dont want to stick a ton of money into it since once the new shop is up an addition will go on the one side of the house I'm talking about.

If anybody has some free time let me know, I'll get some pictures taken of problems areas so you can see exactly what I'm dealing with. Front yard where it meets driveway is goofy, got a funky porrly laid sidewalk from previous owner, etc...wanting a good solid solution that is maintenance free from anything other than weed eating Not much time in summer for lawncare

If interested shoot me direct at j.meighan@mchsi.com.

Thanks Josh

Re: Looking To "borrow" Some Ideas


I've got an el cheapo program already, but was hoping to have a "trained eye" from the feild help with some suggestions and/or better yet if they had their own software maybe throw something together quick for a better explaination/idea instead of trying to explain every aspect of their idea.

You know, just like we do in the construction forums
