How does invoicing/payment work for most Landscape Architect & Designer projects in Portland?
Every project differs, but you should ask any landscape architect & designer for an estimate, before they do any work. In fact, ask for their general payment terms before any landscape design work is done.
If the job is large and going to take longer than a day, it's common practice for landscape architects & designers to request a down payment. Usually, this will be around 25% so they can commence work on your landscape architect & designer project.
If it's a quick job, you'll likely be given an invoice/bill when the job is complete. Then it's up to you and the landscape architect & designer to determine if you pay immediately or can send payment at a later date.

- Obviously you want to do a visual inspection. Even if you're unfamiliar with landscape design work, this gives you the opportunity to ask questions (even basic ones like, what did you do?).
- Ask the landscape architect & designer to describe what they did. Whether your landscape design project was a repair job or a building job, have them run you through what was done.
- Compare the description provided on your landscape design project estimate to the work completed. Did the professional do what was promised?
- Request that the landscape architect & designer do a follow-up visit to check on the work. Most professionals are willing to do this, especially if you ask them.
