"These guys are unbelievable! We had major water issues in our yard and we hired them provided drainage capabilities that would move the water from our yard to the gutter in the street. They not only did an outstanding job, they worked in the rain, thunder, and lightening to get the job done. They solved our problem. We worked with Jake and words can't describe how helpful, courteous, and conscientious he is. There was a lot of excavation involved and they were really efficient, replacing all our sod and then cleaning up after themselves. I would enthusiastically recommend this company."

"I left for work around 8 AM and when I returned at 5 PM, Mr. Baugh and his crew was packing up their tools and cleaning my yard because the rook to my 16x80 trailer was complete. I could not believe how quick this company worked. I will definitely be a repeat customer!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Determining how many boulders you’ll need for your landscaping project depends on the area you need to cover and how big each boulder is. First, you’ll need to determine how big of an area you want covered, then divide that by the base surface area of the boulders. A landscape professional can help you determine how many boulders will be right for your project.

Before you begin landscaping with rocks, put down a weed barrier or landscape fabric to prevent pesky weeds from poking through. 

Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don’t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.

The most important thing to put under a rock garden is the appropriate soil. The specific soil needed will depend on the type of plants you’re growing as well as the environment you live in. You can also put non-woven or woven fabric under the rocks to add to the garden's structural stability.

Yes, backyard landscaping and total-home landscaping add value to your home. According to the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA), high-quality landscape design has a 20 to 30 percent return on investment. So, when it comes time to sell your home, having a beautiful backyard landscaping oasis will increase your home’s value.
