Customers say: Quality work

"Meticulous, highly skilled and a relentless worker, Clinton Allen sized up my situation, saw the solution, and within a short period of time reworked a significant mistake made with the construction of my home. I was 100% satisfied with both the cost and the work. I highly recommend C. Allen Concrete for any project you may have in mind. Had a patio that someone misjudged initially; ended up sloping toward the house and every rain threatened to come in via a door which was then below grade. After many frustrating attempts to get anyone to return a call let alone come to bid in it, Home Advisor steered me to C. Allen Concrete. Clinton called within a day and came out two days later. He quickly sized up the job, knew immediately what needed to be done and as I waited offered a very reasonable quote. I greenlit it and not very long after he was at it mercilessly with the jackhammer, and in a lengthy day had the entire slab blown out. I was astounded, especially considering there was unexpected rebar within. Working around two loadbearing posts with an 80-pound hammer was to me intimidating, but Clinton handled it like a sculptor. Soon the rubble was gone. Clinton cleared and meticulously graded the area, then set the forms. A week later was the pour, it was amazingly well choreographed by Clinton and executed by his topnotch crew. The result was amazing, reshaped slightly to a more aesthetically pleasing design, and now graded properly. When completed, the final product easily exceeded my expectations, the water just flows away from the house and I no longer need fear a downpour. The patio looks great, matches the remaining walkways perfectly and the adjacent areas were smoothed and blended. Rare to find anyone who leaves a jobsite better then when they found it. Not a trace of debris. Easy to work with, experienced and skilled (and personally dedicated to the project), Clinton has a great eye for detail and carried out the job to a high standard indeed."

"Amador and Green Touch Lawn Care did a wonderful job on my front yard. It was filled with patches of weeds that were going to turn into foxtails and prickly spikes. They de-weeded/uprooted everything and then carefully tilled my entire front yard and surrounding areas. It is now ready to plant a new lawn and further landscaping. They don’t know this yet but I’m going to see if they can fit me in for another job (tree removal) because they did such a great one the first time. Highly recommend."

"Workers were very knowledgeable. Completed the job in a timely manner. 12.5 yards of stamped concrete, results are very impressive. This job included a tear out with a jackhammer that went well. My new patio is colored, stamped and beautiful. Clean-up was constant throughout the job. The owner was very easy to deal with."

"Noeh did a fantastic and clean job fixing my small guest bathroom. He installed new flooring, bathroom vanity for much needed storage, a new mirror, fixtures, and added baseboards to flooring. Really appreciate how detail oriented he was for such a small space and that he communicated with me throughout the whole process. My bathroom no longer feels grimy, but neat and welcoming!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

As long as you’re building a greenhouse, consider the overall look of your backyard. Could it benefit from stone walkways or grading? As long as you’re hiring a hardscaping pro to lay the foundation for a greenhouse, you could tackle those other projects to give your whole yard a glow-up at the same time.

The best time to plant is between spring and autumn. Springtime weather is typically mild and is when nurseries start to bloom. When the summer weather arrives and it’s hot out, it’s best to avoid planting bare-root plants, but you can still plant many in-container varieties. The first sign of fall is another great opportunity to plant biennials if you live in southern states, or a lovely vegetable garden up north.

The best size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.

Finding a reputable greenhouse or nursery should start online, where you can read through customer reviews to gauge the quality of the plants sold and the customer experience. Look out for customers complaining about plants dying shortly after purchase, and try to choose a greenhouse known for hiring employees who are able to explain how to care for the plants you purchase. It’s also a good idea to head to a few greenhouses to see the selection they offer and make sure they carry the plants or trees you’re looking for.

Palm trees are relatively easy to grow, especially when planting different varieties in their native habitats. While regular watering is crucial in the first couple of months while the palm develops a strong root ball, palms typically require minimal maintenance once they’re established. You’ll need to prune palm fronds once or twice per year to keep it in tip-top shape.
