Customers say: Quick response

"Hector. his family members and crew worked really hard. We worked together and came up with a plan for front, back yards and for existing slope around large Redwood trees. Hector came back with additional ideas that really improved our original ideas. Hector amazed me when it came to hooking up to the water system and was able to provide sprinklers for the lawn, plants and trees and set up a timer. It was a pleasure working with Hector, he stayed in contact with me and discussed details and suggestion through out my project. They installed new lawn's, some small plants and flowers, several trees and installed Bark as ground cover. Very Happy with the finished project, I will defiantly recommend H.G. Landscapes to others who have had there homes rebuilt. Thank You Hector"

Lawns questions, answered by experts

It typically takes six to 12 months for leaves to decompose entirely. The process involves the mulch composting into your lawn to deliver nutrients that facilitate grass growth. The recommended process is to spread a thick layer of leaf mulch over your garden and let it marinate for a few seasons for best long-term results.

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.

For minor unevenness, you don't necessarily need to remove grass before leveling. You can apply a topdressing mixture to fill in low areas and even out the surface. However, for more significant unevenness or deep depressions, it might be necessary to temporarily remove the grass to ensure proper leveling and soil compaction. After filling and leveling, you can replace the grass or consider reseeding the area.

Water regularly, avoid heavy foot traffic, and clear debris promptly to support lawn health.

If possible, you should prioritize pulling weeds up by hand. However, be sure not to use your bare hands, as many weeds are sharp or otherwise irritating when they come in contact with skin. Always don thick, protective gardening gloves to protect your hands when you pull up weeds.
