Hey guys we’re in Sugar Land and we would like to pull the trigger on landscaping our backyard and I could use some ideas and guidance to educate myself before doing anything. I basically need some ideas around pool friendly landscaping as well as references for a good landscaper who could deliver the job for us. I attached two pictures from my security surveillance system just to get an idea what I have in the backyard.

Here are my requirements:

· I need the landscape design to provide privacy an all 3 sides (3 fences) of the backyard
· The landscape design should be very simple, very clean and not crowded
· We like contemporary stuff so I don’t know if that translates into anything as far as the landscape design goes
· The landscape should be pool friendly, no need to create extra pool work because of the landscape
· The landscape should also be trouble free for the pool i.e. roots damaging the pool and all of that
· The landscape should be as care free as possible. In our old house we used to touch up the landscape once a year for the major stuff and the lawn guys will do the small stuff every week
· The price for the job should be reasonable, we’re not rich by any means and I watch every penny I spend
· Lastly, the landscaper should be reasonable and recommend what is necessary for the job rather than selling us more stuff and services.

Thanks for all the help, ideas and guidance.
