How to find residential/commercial masonry/landscaping jobs?
Eyjafjallajokull volcano and houses

Looking for ways to find more jobs. Looking for ways to obtain/find residential jobs and commercial jobs in the masonry/landscaping fields?


1. Work out a good area which is likely to have the sort of people living in it that will use your services, and will have enough money to pay you.

2. Get some nice flyers printed, with a contact number and maybe your photograph, as well as a nice description of the sort of stuff you do. Make sure it is targeted at the sort of properties you have decided on.

3. Get some smart clothes on, take your flyers and go round personally, knocking on the doors. When they answer, introduce yourself, explain that you are a landscaper or whatever you are describing yourself as and ask if they have any jobs they are looking to get done. If not, ask if you can leave them one of their flyers so if they maybe want something done later on they contact you, or pass it on to a friend if they are looking for someone...

4. Repeat

It may seem a lot of work doing it like this, but you will get much better results by introducing yourself like this than by just stuffing a leaflet in the letter box.

    The Residential Landscape Architect Is A True Architect In Every ...

    He or she studies construction theory and home design in order to identify the geometric forms that are common to both the natural world and the creations of man

    This understanding enables the designer to better unify organic forms with home architecture and construct outdoor structures that compliment the house and blend harmoniously with organic elements Such knowledge is not gained through haphazard trial and error or unconscious osmosis, but is rather cultivated deliberately through years of formal study and field experience

    A better understanding of the essentials of home building makes it possible for the residential landscape architect to create complimentary forms and outdoor buildings throughout the entirety of the lot Patios, hardscapes, walls, custom fountains, outdoor kitchens, and custom swimming pools are all developed stylistically with the utmost respect for home architecture in mind

    This emphasis on the house proper as the focal point of the landscape brings Nature and man-made form into unity and better supports the sense of outdoor living as opposed to merely stepping outside
