"These guys are awesome! From day 1, Andres the M.I.C (man in charge) was very engaging throughout out the process. This was my first time major project to my house since I bought it a few years ago. I recommend anyone who needs concrete or any landscaping work to pick this crew and pick Andres brain for advice when trying to bring your imagination to life. I would ask him what has he's seen that looked great or awful where my lot was at. I appreciate what he shared. It came out better than expected and I have received multiple compliments to this day. The Valley View Landscaping Maintenance Crew kept it 100% professional and kept me informed every step of the way. I will definitely hire these guys again. And again I WILL HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEIR SERVICES IF YOU NEED some landscaping work - Bruce"

"Worst customer service I have seen from a company. Good service at seeing you up but even getting someone out for our first service took a month and countless calls. Just had our follow up service took several weeks and calls to the call center to schedule with no response. Only got someone out by texting the rep that came out last service. Then on the follow up spray the only sprayed 1/4 of the committed area and haven’t been able to get someone to come back out. The call center appears to not communicate to the service department and only takes the call to move on to the next call. They commit to schedules to get up of the phone resulting in another call days later after a no show."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Although it’s not required to lay anything under mulch, it can help to put landscape fabric or plastic weed barrier down and lay mulch on top. The barrier helps keep weeds from growing up through your mulch. It also helps keep rodents and insects from burrowing into the ground underneath.

Yes, it is possible to add too little mulch. Anything less than 1 inch will likely result in too little coverage around your plants, allowing weeds to grow through and minimizing the positive effects that a deeper bed of mulch would have, like maintaining proper soil moisture and insulating the ground.

There should be a 1-inch thick layer of sand underneath your pavers in order to provide a proper base.

If your mulch delivery company or landscaper installs mulch around multiple spots in your yard (especially if they are more complex areas), feel free to tip up to $15 a person. However, there's no need to tip for a standard mulch drop done in your driveway or on a tarp.

Yes, you can put topsoil over sand to encourage grass growth. The topsoil will help to improve water retention and promote grass roots’ development, making it a recommended step of the seeding process. Adding a layer of topsoil will provide additional nutrients to the sandy soil, helping the grass grow and remain healthy through many seasons.
