Commercial Landscapers working on Large Project on Kansas Commercial Properties

A recent best-selling book encouraged readers to not sweat the small stuff. But as a developer working on large commercial projects, you know that the small things can keep you awake at night.

For example, landscaping usually accounts for only 2 to 4 percent of your overall project budget -- yet it may cause 10 percent of your headaches. When you turn your landscaping over to Hermes Landscaping, you get unmatched quality and service, from design through installation and maintenance. We have been completing projects on time, on budget, and ahead of schedule for over 35 years.

Our highly respected professionals, working with your Project Manager and Landscape Architect, will enhance the beauty of your project with innovative landscapes. Your clients will thank you --- and you will sleep better at night.

"EcoWorks was a little different from the projects Hermes has done in the past, but they worked very hard to meet our expectations. It was important to have the same company both install and maintain the landscape. The transfer of responsibility from design through installation and maintenance has been pretty seamless."

We Get Your Landscape Project Done and Done Well
 

Kansas City's Premier Group of Commercial Architects Working on a Project

Most importantly, our commercial landscaping team listens. Only then can we plan and install the landscape that meets your needs, your budget and site requirements. We understand how the system works. We are experts at cutting through red tape to quickly obtain required approvals.

We also know the construction industry, inside and out. Our team includes Project Managers and Superintendents, just like our clients. We self-perform all landscaping, irrigation and grading work. With our experienced Superintendents, coordinating and working with other subcontractors is no problem.

Hermes creates your landscape plans, irrigation system shop drawings, irrigation systems and as-built drawings using CAD, computer aided drafting. You will have a clear, accurate,electronically transferable record of the landscaping and irrigation system work done on your project.
Hermes has abundant resources for large commercial landscape projects in Kansas CityYou never have to worry about an elaborate design for which plant material is not readily available and which may drive up maintenance costs. Our own Hermes Nursery grows more than 70 varieties of quality trees, shrubs and evergreens on over 600 acres in Shawnee and Olathe, Kansas. Our plant materials are acclimated to the local climate and will have the highest possible survival rates. You also have the option of tagging your own trees at our local nurseries. When rare plant materials are a must, our traveling buyers are expert in locating them as needed.

Finally, we don't drive away when the last tree is planted and the last invoice is submitted. We will follow up until the landscape is exactly the way you envisioned it. And our expert staff is never more than a phone call away.

Professional Leadership for Professional Results
 
As soon as you select Hermes, you will be assigned an experienced Superintendent and Project Manager who knows how to get things done. In fact, our Superintendents have an average of 20 years experience on large commercial projects. Your project will run smoothly, and your valuable time spent managing your landscaping project will be minimal.
Design-Build is the standard for on-time, on-budget construction. Why trust your landscaping and irrigation needs to anyone else? We partner with Landscape Architects on a local and national level. Here is how it works: "As a project evolves, landscaping and irrigation will be one of the last things done, and it often comes up a little short as the project is constructed and the money is spent. With a Design-Build team, however, our team is there from the very beginning as an advocate for the Owner's vision, and the Landscape Architects design, as the project moves forward." You can take the hassle out of your project by using one contractor for all of your landscaping and irrigation system design planning, landscaping and irrigation system installation, seeding, sodding, and landscape maintenance needs.
