"Showed up when they said the would and even went the extra mile to finish the edging amd installed brick to finish the wall that my home builder did not. Great work and will have them back to finish my backyard."
"Reynaldo and crew from Golden Oaks trimmed back my olive tree and 4 palm trees. They were fast, clean and did excellent work. I am planning on hiring them again for the rest of my trees. They also had the lowest price I found. They even cleaned up the tree trimmings on my neighbor’s side of the fence which I really, really appreciated. A neighbor on the other side of my yard had trimmed their tree near the fence line years ago and left all of those trimmings that fell on my side of the fence for me to clean up. Hire these guys! You won’t be disappointed!"
"Luis and his crew did a fabulous job. Removed and hauled away a 70 year old Ivy fence surrounding the front yard, along with old brick surrounding the interior of the yard. Removed old grass from a long strip between the sidewalk and street. Instead of fixing the brick planters under the two front windows, we ended up having to replace both. The house was built in 1955 and the bricks were just falling apart. The front strip between the sidewalk and street was replaced with 5 spaced out succulents and river rocks with gopher wire and barrier underneath with a drip system added. The old ivy fence was replaced with hedges. We had a very large tree removed from the front yard in 2019. The area had sunken in over time with old tree roots exposed leaving the yard very uneven. There was also a sunken area on one side of the yard. Both areas were filled in and leveled off. The grass area already had a sprinkler system from 2012 that Luis will be updating. A new drip system was put in for the hedges. The two planters were rebuilt with large bricks and river rocks were added around the existing roses and large pots. There was a dirt area over by the chimney that they also leveled, added barrier and river rocks. Looks great. Luis will be checking back to access the filled in grass areas to see how they’re settling and then will amend the grass and fertilize and plant a Crepe Myrtle tree centered in the yard. Once the hedges are established, Luis will untie the tape, remove the stakes, fluff out and trim. Everything already looks fabulous and the neighbors have been texting how great everything looks. A neighbor down the street asked for an estimate for their property. The crew was very hard working and would clean as they went. At the end of each workday they made sure everything was spotless. Probably more details than needed, but this was a lot of work and they did a fabulous job. Would hire them again and highly recommend Luis and his crew 😊"
"Great professional service. I'm very satisfied with the end result. My yard is no longer an eye sore. It's now very aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Thanks Deanna for all of your help."
"Kept me posted the whole time on when he would get there and about progress as he worked. Did a fantastic job and even cleaned the leaves out of the gutters. Left the area neat and tidy when finishes. Professional and courteous at all time. Highly recommend!"
"We used Costa turf for our backyard. Mark and Moises were absolutely beyond. Two incredible professionals who crushed this job. We had bark chips for years and and we were not happy. We were so thrilled to put down turf. Our dogs are having such a blast… and aesthetically it absolutely looks stunning. I can’t recommend this company enough. Don’t even bother exploring others. This is IT!!!"
According to the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, there are over 10,000 kinds of mushrooms, and some are harmful to both humans and animals. However, not all mushrooms are harmful—some feed on thatch and wood, which provides nutrients for grass and plants.
But unless you’re a mushroom expert (mycologist), it can be hard to tell poisonous mushrooms from non-poisonous. So if you have kids or pets (or both), removing them is the safest route to take.
Unless it’s rubber or you need to prune suckers and remove weeds, you shouldn’t need to get rid of the old mulch around your tree. Simply push old mulch a few inches away from the trunk of your tree and then top it off with enough fresh mulch to reach 3 to 4 inches in height.
Professionals use appropriate equipment to prevent property damage and ensure efficiency.
Although palm trees are self-pruning and will eventually remove their own brown leaves with new growth, there are a couple of instances when you might still want to go ahead and do the work yourself. For example, remove brown palm leaves if you live in an area with a greater risk of wildfires or if the leaves obstruct your pathway. But as long as the leaves pose no safety hazards, you don’t have to worry about pruning them.
An herbicide with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr kills ivy the fastest. Herbicides inhibit photosynthesis and cell division. They kill the roots and prevent ivy from regrowing. You should apply herbicide to the cut stems and roots of ivy. You can also spray herbicide on the leaves of ivy, but be sure not to spray nearby trees and plants as it can cause them harm.
