At designscapes, we’re not just another local landscape company. We’re your neighbors, your trusted experts, and your long-term partners in creating and maintaining the outdoor spaces you’ve always dreamed of. But what exactly sets us apart?
Got 5 minutes? Let’s dive into the #thedesignscapesdifference and explore the five touchpoints that make us unique.
1. Local landscape company, Family-Owned Roots
designscapes was established in 2010 right here in Bridgeville, Delaware. Being family-owned means more than just a small-town feel; it means we care deeply about the communities we serve. Our roots are in the same neighborhoods as yours, and we understand the specific needs of our local climate and lawns. When you choose designscapes, you’re supporting a local business that invests back into the community we all call home.
2. Fair Practices with a Business Mindset
We’re committed to providing exceptional value, but we also believe in transparency. As a small business, we need to turn a profit to keep delivering the high-quality services and materials you deserve. Our pricing reflects our expertise, attention to detail, and commitment to using premium materials. At the same time, we’re fair and upfront—no hidden fees, no surprises.
What sets us apart from “Chuck in a Truck” companies is our commitment to running a legitimate, well-organized business. We:
- Conduct background checks on employees.
- Provide workers with fair wages, holiday pay, vacation and weekends off whenever possible.
- Carry workers’ compensation and pay federal and state taxes.
- Maintain all required licenses for the states and towns we work in.
- Employ team members who have passed examinations to apply pesticides, insecticides, and fungicides on your property. Our Delaware Department license number is DDA1445, and we are licensed in both Delaware and Maryland.
- Ensure our team is enrolled in continuing education to stay up-to-date with the latest practices and techniques.
When you work with designscapes, you benefit from a professional company that prioritizes both its employees and its clients. Additionally, we leverage technology to stay efficient and maintain clear communication with you.
3. Our Recognizable Brand
When you see our blue trucks and trailers roll into your neighborhood, complemented by our blue shirts and unique logos, you know it’s designscapes. Our branding isn’t just about looking good; it’s about building trust. Those blue vehicles symbolize reliability, professionalism, and a job well done. Over the years, this branding has become a hallmark of our commitment to excellence and pride in the work we do. We hope the trust that comes with the color blue reflects the reliability of designscapes.
4. A True Partnership
Many of our customers have been with us since the beginning, and we’ve grown alongside them. We view our relationship with you as a partnership. Your yard is an extension of your home, and it’s an honor to help you care for it. We’re here to listen, advise, and adapt our services to meet your needs. When you thrive, so do we. That’s why we strive to build long-term relationships where you never feel like just another client—you’re part of the designscapes family.
We want to see you at community events, introduce you to our family and friends, and become part of your extended network. We aim for you to be proud every time you come home, knowing you made the right decision in choosing designscapes. If you have a question after hours, there’s a good chance you’ll get a response that evening, not the next day. And we’re excited to share our trusted partners with you—businesses that share our values and commitment to quality.
5. Mutual Value
The most significant part of #thedesignscapesdifference is the value you get from this local landscape company. For you, it’s about enjoying a beautifully maintained property without the hassle. For us, it’s about the satisfaction of seeing your trust in us reflected in thriving lawns and landscapes and happy customers. We’re proud of the work we do and the relationships we build along the way. Together, we create something far greater than just a transaction—we create lasting value. If you have a question after hours, 9 times out of 10, you’ll hear back from us before the next day.
