Meet Terrace Greenery Studio
Terrace Greenery Studios provides design, installation, and maintenance services for landscaping, irrigation systems, rooftop/terrace gardens, and vertical gardens (also called green walls or living walls).
For landscaping, they can design and install new gardens as well as provide ongoing maintenance for existing gardens. For irrigation systems, they handle installation and repairs. Rooftop/terrace gardens and vertical gardens are installed on the exterior or interior of buildings to provide greenery and improve aesthetics. Rooftop gardens are installed on top of buildings and terrace gardens are on balconies or patios. Vertical gardens are attached to walls, either outside or inside.
Terrace Greenery also produces the components for the rooftop/terrace gardens and vertical gardens themselves, such as using metal sheets and irrigation supplies. This helps them control costs and pricing. They market to a range of customers including public institutions, commercial buildings, residential properties, developers, and more. The sales staff sells directly and they also get referrals.
