"They completed landscaping my front yard. They are quick and efficient. Great communication and good price. I will be hiring again to do other projects around my home. Put in a concrete path and stamped it. I was unsure of exactly what I wanted to do and assisted with ideas. Put turf in as well. Very happy with the project."

"We hired Palomas Landscaping to install new outdoor lighting system (37 lights) and a drip irrigation system covering both the front and backyards. The owner Miguel was very good on determining the requirements and establishing a fair price. His crew was on time and worked very professionally . They finished the job on time to our satisfaction. I would highly recommend Palomas Landscaping."

"Javier arrived promptly. My husband showed him the problem with our backyard low voltage landscape lighting. Javier conducted an inspection, and found that the electrical outlet that the lights were plugged into was no longer functional. He plugged the cord into another outlet, and everything now functions just fine! Thank you Javier and M&J Prime Builders!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The primary disadvantages of xeriscaping are the high upfront cost and the significant labor required to establish it. A xeriscaping project can cost between $3,000 and $24,000 on average. Additionally, the resulting landscape will have less of a traditional green appearance, which may not appeal to everyone's personal taste and could potentially narrow your pool of buyers if you decide to sell your home. However, despite these initial drawbacks, the long-term benefits include saving water, time, and money on lawn maintenance.

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

While you can leave roots in the ground, if you don’t want the shrub to regrow again over time, it’s best not to leave any roots behind. Ensure you remove as much of the shrub as possible, including the root ball and any main roots you can see, to prevent new growth. Some gardeners opt for using a chemical treatment to prevent the stump from growing back, but this can kill beneficial microorganisms living in your soil.

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.

As with anything you do near your foundation, you’ll want to ensure proper drainage when you plant your foundation beds. Your drainage should run downhill from the highest point against your foundation to avoid water intrusion and incurring expensive foundation repair costs.
