Landscaping in Anchorage has a short bright season and a long memory of snow, frost heave, and wind off the inlet. Spruce and birch are the trees that hit roofs and hold snow against the wall. A young planting on an exposed lot will lay over if nobody stakes it. Melt that runs toward the crawl is a building problem dressed up as a yard. Fix the slope before you talk about a bed.
The daylight in summer is long and people mistake that for a long season. It is not. Planting late, with no plan for water, dies when the dark and the cold return together. Say if you want the plants kept alive after they go in, or only put in. Downspouts that end at the foundation will fill the crawl at melt. Higher lots and inlet lots both need that slope.
Heaved walks and steps are a trip in the dark, which is most of the day in winter. Mark them in the call. Birch debris and spruce limbs on the roof are tree work that should happen while the roof can also be looked at. Shade on the north side of an Anchorage house is real. Do not bring a plant list from a longer season and expect a different result.
A weekly cut is a small part of the year here. Define whether storm limbs are included, because snow break is not ordinary mowing. Irrigation and hoses have to be dealt with before the freeze or the yard work becomes a broken line. You do not need a drawing. You need the direction of the melt and whether a furnace termination vanishes under the pile every winter.
Say the part of Anchorage and whether the job is grade, trees, or a planting that failed. Mention the crawl if water is getting under it. Say if a limb is already on the house. The bright weeks end on their own. Call the number on this page.
