Case Study: Colorado Commercial Landscaping Project Completed Ahead of Deadline
A Colorado business owner needed landscaping work completed for a time-crunched inspection deadline. Hi-Def Landscaping stepped in, working closely with their landscaping architect to ensure we met all inspection requests and deadlines.
The Challenges
A Colorado business owner called Hi-Def Landscaping in a panic: his commercial landscaping project had to be finished in two weeks to meet an inspection deadline – and his previous landscaper had just backed out.
His challenges included:
Tight Deadline
All work had to be completed within 2 weeks before a final inspection and certificate of occupancy could be issued.
Ordinance Compliance
The project had to meet Colorado landscaping standards for purpose and intent, water drainage, wildfire risk mitigation, parking lot considerations, and use of appropriate materials.
Off-Site Client
The facility’s leadership had to leave town on a business trip, wasn’t able to meet the Hi-Def team in-person beforehand, and wouldn’t be in town to oversee the project.
The Solution
Hi-Def Landscaping got to work immediately, creating a plan to complete the project on-time, in compliance, and with every detail handled in the business owner’s absence.
Coordination with Landscape Architect
Steve partnered with the client’s landscape architect to address inspection notes and ensure compliance with Colorado landscaping standards.
Overtime
Hours
The crew worked extended days to keep the project on schedule without sacrificing quality.
Remote
Project Management
With the client out of town, the Hi-Def team sent daily photo updates and progress reports for peace of mind from afar.
High-Quality Material Procurement
We sourced premium plants and hardscaping materials from our trusted local suppliers.
Adaptability
The team integrated last-minute inspection requests without affecting the timeline.
The Results
Hi-Def Landscaping exceeded the client’s expectations, delivering the project:
Ahead of Schedule
We completed the work early, giving the client breathing room before inspection.
Within Compliance
All work aligned with Colorado landscaping ordinance provisions, ensuring smooth approval for the certificate of occupancy.
With Zero Stress for the Client
Even with a tight deadline and a few late-stage changes, Hi-Def kept the project on track and the client at ease.
The client had this to say
“They took the pressure off completely. I was able to hand the project over, leave town, and know every detail would be handled without my supervision. Thanks, Hi-Def team!”
The landscape architect said:
“Steve was very professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. The end product was perfect and the process went off without a hitch.”
