"I am very pleased with the back-yard patio Conrad and his crew installed. Cost was very competitive. Timeline for project was very close to original estimate. Conrad was very helpful in helping us make final design decisions, especially on picking the paver block style and color. He also promptly addressed all of me concerns, even though they were mostly minor. His crew also worked with me to get the final outline of the patio, with many curves. Del Mar Landscaping is definitely on the top of my list for any future landscaping work."

"I interviewed six companies regarding backyard renovation and I am so happy that I chose Yosi and Rainforest L.A. They transformed our backyard into a relaxing oasis. We were astonished at the transformation. Yosi was so easy to work with, very calm, professional, excellent communication, easy to reach.Yosi provided a detailed bid the very same day we met. He answered all of my questions politely. Yosi's team were friendly, professional, creative, hardworking, and they left our yard spotless every day. We have used many contractors over the years and Rainforest L.A. was the best."

"We're big fans of Hugo! He executed designs we had drawn up to turn our front yard into a zeroscaped area and build a fence. He came in with the lowest offer and we were a little skeptical but he and his team executed the work well and quickly. He was also willing to give us advise about sticky issues including how to save money on aspects of the project and how to make some better choices regarding staining/painting a fence, irrigation, and what kinds of materials to use. I would totally hire Hugo again!"

Lawns questions, answered by experts

No. Unfortunately, leaf removal is your responsibility, no matter what tree the leaves come from. It would be pretty hard to regulate leaves since they can be moved by the wind or water. Imagine the detective skills it would take to determine which tree each leaf came from and who was then liable for removing it. Instead, plan to remove any leaves on your property.

Ultimately, pulling weeds vs. spraying them depends on what’s happening in your yard and your personal preferences. Manual weed removal doesn’t introduce any chemicals into your landscape, targets specific problematic plants, produces immediate results, can be free if you go the DIY route, and is inexpensive with a weed service if you only have a handful of weeds. On the other hand, spraying is often preferable for severe weed infestations and situations involving difficult-to-pull weeds because it treats multiple weeds at once, is usually more effective long-term, is less time-consuming, and costs less when done by a pro.

A standard home lawn mower with sharp blades can handle a thin layer of leaves without issue. You may need to make a couple of passes within several days to mulch leaves down, but your mower shouldn’t struggle. If your mower comes with a mulching kit, like an attachment to blow leaves out the side, that’s a good sign it’s ready for fall leaves. Set your mower to the highest or near-highest height for this project so it focuses on the leaves rather than the grass below.

To prepare your lawn for core aeration, water it the day before you aerate. (Alternatively, you can wait until it rains and aerate the following day.) Aerating after watering or a rainy day will make the process easier since you can penetrate moist soil better than dry soil. You should also flag your sprinklers so that you don’t accidentally hit them while aerating. If you have a lot of thatch buildup in your yard, you might need to dethatch your lawn before aerating as well.

How often you should maintain your yard depends on your climate and what season it is. A general rule of thumb is to maintain a lawn height of three inches.
