"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."

From start to finish, their team demonstrated exceptional professionalism, keeping us informed at each stage of the process. They completed the work right on schedule, showing impressive attention to detail and efficiency. Cedar Flats also offered competitive pricing without sacrificing quality, which made it a great value. The finished fence looks fantastic, and their workmanship truly exceeded our expectations.

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Since the nature of the landscaping project can heavily influence the overall cost, it helps to understand what different types of landscaping projects cost on average. For example:

  • Plant a tree: $100–$2,000

  • Build a retaining wall: $3,250–$9,200

  • Reseed a lawn: $450–$1,700

  • Install a water fountain: $950–$4,800

  • Install a paver patio: $2,400–$7,000

  • Install a concrete walkway: $1,200–$2,400

  • Install a flower bed: $800–$3,000

  • Landscape lighting: $2,000–$6,000

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.

When planting, it's best to leave several feet between a house and a juniper bush. Many juniper varieties will become quite bushy and require space to grow. Juniper branches that come into contact with siding can damage the home's exterior over time. Also, some juniper bushes have aggressive roots that can put pressure on a home's foundation or basement walls. 

The soil around your foundation should slope down and away from your home, not toward it. If the grading drops the farther you are from your home, you can enhance the slope by removing more soil. Mark off a few feet from your house and dig up some of this soil. Regrading around your fountain should encourage water to flow away from your home and not collect or “pond.”

Plant a peach tree right at the end of your local dormancy period, likely at the very end of winter after the last frost when you can dig into the soft soil. Plan your backyard gardening season, including when planting peach trees, based on the frost schedule predicted in your local hardiness zone.
