"Bronze Star? More like GOLD Star! I contacted Mr. Ford the day previously and was told that he would meet me this morning to look at my yard and to give an exact quote. As per what he said, he showed up bright and early this morning and gave me a quote for our rather overgrown yard—our yard has been long, long overdue for a cutting due to a lack of mower avaliability. To my surprise, it was beyond affordable and far below what I would expect for such a messy yard. He excelled past my expectations and said well beyond them. Robert is a very courteous man—he is honest and treated myself and my grandfather with respect and dignity, something that our previous cutter did not do. All in all, Robert is an absolute pleasure to work with and without a doubt, someone I would highly, highly recommend to others!"

"I hired The Plains Landscaping to install stone at my house and improve the landscaping. They were amazing to work with. They were very knowledgeable, communicated all details well, and we loved the finished project! We will absolutely hire this company again, and I would suggest hiring them if you are looking for any landscaping needs."

"Kinsley was a pleasure to do business with. Showed up on time when he said he would be there. Brought a ton of samples for my wife to pick from. I would highly recommend this business to anyone. His crew was very polite and professional. Treated my back yard like it was their own. Kinsley and his crew kept a clean work area from start to finish. 10/10 business"

"The men from Matthew and Jody's were thorough, explained their estimates, carefully examined my yard for other trees that might need to be removed in the future, and their prices were more than fair. Their estimate was hundreds of dollars less than the other two companies I contacted.
They cut up and hauled off the trees they removed, then used a blower to make sure the yard was as clean as possible. 
They followed up afterwards to be sure that their work was satisfactory.
I highly recommend them for their honesty, integrity, fair-pricing, and the quality of their work.

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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

Since you’ll likely be digging a trench to install your yard drainage system, this is a good time to complete other tasks that involve digging up your yard, including: Sprinkler system installation Lawn reseeding Regrading your yard Redesigning your landscaping If your drain is under a walkway or driveway, your contractor must also remove those materials. This is a great time to consider upgrading your hardscaping features, especially if they’re nearing the end of their life span.

There are many factors to consider when building an in-ground concrete pool. This includes the pool’s primary purpose (relaxation or exercise) if you live in a warm or cold climate (how often it’ll be used), and if you have the budget for chemical treatments and pool maintenance. In-ground pools are often more costly than aboveground pools, but they’re considered more luxurious and hold more value.

It is possible to DIY complete hardscaping projects, but in most cases, hiring a professional is best to get the job done correctly. Hardscaping—including installing patios, decks, retaining walls, walkways, and water features—is challenging and time-consuming, so the money you spend on a professional is typically worth it. Not only will the quality be better, but you could avoid problems that come along with a lack of hardscaping experience, like drainage issues that can lead to costly foundation damage and leaks in your home.

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.
