How to talk to a Landscape Contractor: “Demo”

Here’s the first in a series of landscaping definitions. Sometimes a landscaper who’s worked in the industry for years will drop confusing jargon pertaining to the specifics of landscaping. Here we want to help clarify some of that terminology over the course of a few new blog entries.

Landscape Demolition

What does “Demo” mean?

Our word for today is “Demo.”  This is a shortening of the word “demolition” and can range from pulling out pre-existing plants and turf, to an extensive excavation to prepare for a landscape remodel.

Some “demos” are delicate and require manual removal, whereas concrete removal requires the use of tractors and tools like jackhammers.

Basic Demo usually only takes a day once the plans have been finalized and the property is ready.  More intense demo projects can take more than one day, but it’s always easier to tear things apart than build them up!

Next time you need some landscape demolition, remember TRU Landscape Services the only name you need to know in Orange County Landscape.

Orange County City Seals and Logos

We made some images of each Orange County City’s seal or logo for our site, and wanted to share them here for anyone interested. We used the map of Orange County as a backdrop for each city name and city seal. There are pages for just about every city or area. If you notice that your Orange County City seal is missing, feel free to tell us in a comment. All of these images are composed from the official OC city logos found on wikipedia etc.

Hope these’ll be useful to someone!
