"Meadow trimmed all my shrubs, put mulch in all my area, cleaned weeds from my flower beds, removed and replaced a tree, removed a weed ground cover, arrange stones around entire area of front and sides of yard. Tom and his crew did a wonderful job and my yard is beyond perfection. I am so thrilled that I found this company. They cut no corners and did everything I requested in one day. They know what they are doing. I give them a 5 star rating and I will definitely use them in the fall."

"Jeff and his crew were great. We had a couple companies come out and give us estimates but they seemed to be "guessing" on how best to install a retaining wall to stop erosion. Jeff knew exactly what we needed. They were effecient and cleaned up quickly. The ONLY knock I would have was they worked so quickly, they already had the all the sod laid before I could make sure the dirt had been racked out evenly. We have a few high and low spots in the yard. Otherwise a perfect job! Definitely would use again and recommend to friends."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best type of rock for landscaping depends on your specific project and needs, as different rocks are suited for different applications. For covering large areas or creating an affordable driveway, consider gravel, but note that it can wash away in flowing water. For water features, river rocks are a good option. Flagstone and cobblestone are ideal for aesthetically pleasing patios and walkways. If you are building a stone wall, fieldstone or small boulders are up to the task. Large boulders and landscape rocks work well as statement pieces, to fill empty space, or to indicate boundaries, but be mindful that they can overwhelm smaller gardens. The best approach is to first define your landscaping project and then select the rock type that best fits that purpose.

In most cases, buying plants from a local greenhouse or nursery is well worth the investment, even though they tend to be a bit more expensive than those at a home improvement store. Employees at nurseries are usually well-versed in gardening and understand how the climate in your area affects different plants. They can help you make selections based on your skill level and time commitment to your landscaping, and they can provide detailed care instructions and advice to help keep your plants alive and diagnose and treat issues like pest infestation and illness.

As with anything you do near your foundation, you’ll want to ensure proper drainage when you plant your foundation beds. Your drainage should run downhill from the highest point against your foundation to avoid water intrusion and incurring expensive foundation repair costs.

The landscaping elements that add the most value are often the basics. A well-maintained, attractive lawn can have a return on investment (ROI) of up to 217%. Routine lawn maintenance, such as edging and mulching, can provide an ROI of over 100%. Other high-value projects include upgrading your front walkway, which can offer a 100% ROI, and planting trees. Projects like adding decks, patios, outdoor lighting, irrigation systems, fire pits, and outdoor kitchens also add value and enjoyment, though their direct financial ROI may be less than 100% in some cases.

Xeriscaping can be more affordable than traditional landscaping, but it depends on your landscape design. However, you will save on water. If you live in an arid climate or a location prone to droughts, xeriscaping is an especially efficient way of reducing your lawn’s water demand without detracting from the beauty of your yard.
