"The work including the in-person estimate was completed within a 10 day period. Originally, I hired New Earth to change out the backyard control box for sprinkler. At the time I received a quote for setting up a drip sprinkler system for the front yard, which I pursued. All was completed within 10 days period. Experienced fast communication and good work. Would definitely recommend New Earth for sprinkler installation."

"I hired Adolfo to work on my mother's yard. He did an amazing job taking my design and adding his own touches to create what she calls her "oasis"! He went over and beyond to get everything detail right. The final design was much better than I dreamed. He is so patient and hard working. I'd recommend him to anyone looking for someone who can take their yard to another level."

"We hired Daniel Soto to thatch, aerate and fertilize our front and back yards (approximately 3,250 square feet). Soto and his crew arrived in the early morning and went to work and stayed until sun down in order to complete the job. It was a pleasure to work with Daniel and I highly recommend him for any lawn projects."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Yes, if your home is poorly maintained and has weeds and overgrowth, it can affect your home appraisal and lower the value. Home buyers want to see a well-kept home, and if yours lacks curb appeal whether inundated by weeds or not, you could be neglecting the potential for it to reach its full value.

DIY is possible for small amounts of waste. Professional services handle larger volumes efficiently.

No, it’s not necessary to remove all the leaves from your lawn—in fact, leaving some behind can be beneficial. While it's important to clear thick layers of leaves that can smother your grass, leaving a light scattering of leaves can help feed your soil while also providing safe winter habitat for pollinators like bumble bees. Leftover leaves will eventually break down, enriching the soil and promoting healthy lawn growth.

You may need to lay sod on the areas you dug up once you get the okay from the contractor. It will take about 30 to 45 days for the sod to take root. Consult a local sod installer to get an accurate estimate of the timeline of your specific yard-enhancement project.

It’s possible to over-mulch leaves. If the leaf mulch is thick enough that it’s blocking and smothering the grass, that’s a problem. Ideally, you should still be able to see the grass when you’re done mulching to ensure its ability to continue growing. The solution is to make another pass at the top layer of leaf mulch to collect some of the top layer.
