Jeremy J. Kox Landscape Architecture,
LLC Schedule / Time Guidelines
Projects vary dramatically in size, scope
and complexity. Even so, all of our project timetables are tailored to
meet your needs (you may have specific target dates for completion).
We are flexible in the design process to meet those needs. Our
design schedule is arranged around your work, vacation and travel
schedule.

The most unpredictable part of the timetable is the contractor's
availability to start work. There is often a waiting period of two to
eight weeks in which the contractor finishes other work they have
previously committed to. While overall project timetables vary
considerably from our first meeting until completion of construction,
they usually take a minimum of three months.
Early spring and late autumn projects may take longer to accomplish, due
to inclement weather, but an advantage is that the contractor-waiting
period is often shorter. Late season starts may require project
suspension if weather becomes too severe and/or interfers with
acceptable construction methods or risks new vegetation health.
