How we work
Good prep starts
with a walk around.
We keep the job small and specific: the bed you chose, the work you agreed on, and a tidy path when we leave.
Groundwork, by a small crew
Vepsora prepares in-ground garden beds around Maple Crossing. We take on the heavy first pass so you can spend your time choosing and planting.
New lawn-to-bed spaces and old beds both start with a conversation about size. We ask about access, existing plants, and anything in the area that needs to stay untouched.
Before the tools come out
- Measure the length and width in feet. A rough measurement is fine for the first conversation.
- Tell us how we reach the bed, including gates, steps, and the path from the driveway.
- We confirm the outline, compost, sod removal if needed, and the total price before agreeing on the work.
When to book
Ask in February or March for an April or May visit. The soil needs to be thawed and dry enough to work. If it is frozen or soggy, we agree on another day.
Spring route visits run Monday–Friday, 8am–4pm. Quotes and scheduling are handled in the same hours.
What you’ll find afterward
A loosened bed with compost worked in, a raked surface, and a freshly cut soil edge. Removed sod is taken away when it is part of your quote.
We walk the finished area with you and address anything missed in the agreed prep. Plants and planting are your next step.
Show us where you want to begin.
We’ll start with the measurements and work out the rest with you.
