Here are a few practical things you should do before the landscape makeover begins in earnest, to minimize disruption and mess:

1 Complete all exterior home repairs.

2 Complete all exterior painting and power-washing of the house and outbuildings as well as fences you plan to keep.

3 Call an arborist to attend to existing big-tree issues: removal (including stump grinding, if applicable) and removal of lower limbs and pruning of damaged or diseased branches.

4 Call in the professionals for an in-ground irrigation systems before any other landscaping work is started (see Chapter 5 for full details).

5 Attend to necessary grading as well as water-flow or flood-mitigation issues (see Chapter 4).
