Why has Drought Tolerant Landscaping Become So Popular?

Whether you call it Xeriscape, Dryscape, Desertscape or something else, Drought Tolerant Landscaping has become far more popular recently in Southern California. It has become far more common to see that your neighbors have removed their water guzzling front lawn opting instead for their curb appeal to be derived from a low maintenance lawn alternative. A beautiful, virtually maintenance free curb appeal can now be realized with a well designed drought tolerant landscape and we understand why this type of curb appeal is so...appealing!

Our company, JNR Home Improvements believes the popularity of desert landscaping stems from a combination of the desire each of us has for a beautiful home and the lack of time most of us have to maintain one. Yes, a drought tolerant yard saves water but, we feel it is equally important that it saves time. Time that is so tough to find in today's busy world. Our company helps you take back the time you would have spent on maintenance giving you more time for the important things. One of our core tenants include enriching the lives of both client and employee and we believe that has led to JNR Home Improvements being routinely recognized for our amazing, low maintenance, time saving, outdoor living spaces. Our company has received accolades and awards from online websites as well as local newspapers for both design and service.

We truly believe that a well designed, professionally installed, low maintenance outdoor living space that includes desert landscape or virtually maintenance free artificial turf improves our clients lifestyles. This type of design makes a home stand out amongst a sea of partially yellow, unkempt lawns that line the street in most neighborhoods. The difference this type of style makes, when done by a pro, is tremendous.  

 Our clients feel a sense of pride and relief coming home from work or their children's soccer practice to see a yard that makes their home look more like a dream than a to-do list. This sense of pride swells once you realize you're not paying a gardener to maintain it each week or, better yet, knowing you won't have to spend your only day off fighting to start a lawn mower before sweating as you cut the grass instead of watching the game. Our extensive list of happy desert landscaping clients know their yard will look just as beautiful even though they haven't worked on it all month. This time saving aspect should be enough but wait, there's more! 

 Most homes in the Antelope Valley and Santa Clarita use as much as 70% of their monthly water on outdoor landscaping. Once an incredibly efficient drip irrigation system is installed or the sprinkler system is eliminated completely, depending on how far you go with your low maintenance design, the difference in your water bill will be immediately noticeable.

 The bottom line is this. Desert landscaping, when done right, can be beautiful. A well done drought friendly landscape design and installation adds value to the home, saves precious time, saves water, meets watering restrictions and can make your home the neighborhood envy. 

 With incredible financing options available, a monthly payments that are often lower than current water and maintenance costs, it is a no brainer. Your budget benefits, the whole family benefits. Desert landscaping is a win-win and that is why it has become so popular.
