"We're big fans of Hugo! He executed designs we had drawn up to turn our front yard into a zeroscaped area and build a fence. He came in with the lowest offer and we were a little skeptical but he and his team executed the work well and quickly. He was also willing to give us advise about sticky issues including how to save money on aspects of the project and how to make some better choices regarding staining/painting a fence, irrigation, and what kinds of materials to use. I would totally hire Hugo again!"

Customers say: Quality work

"They were on top of the job. I have a lot going on and really needed this job finished in a timely manner. LV kept in contact and arrived at the house when they said they would, ready to work. They finished the job and submitted pics since I could not be on the property when the work was done. The yard looks great and there was a lot to cut. It was the first cut since the rains hit so the grass was tall. They cleaned up and left everything looking great. I would recommend LV Gardening to anyone looking for a fast and friendly lawn contractor."

"My wife and I have hired RainforestLA for four separate landscaping and design projects (turf, fence, concrete, stepping stones, etc.) and are always amazed with the final product. They do amazing quality work that lasts year after year. We could not recommend them more and look forward to hiring them again."

"Jesus was very professional. He diagnosed and repaired the problem. Additionally, he adjusted the other sprinklers so they are now watering only the lawn and not the driveway & sidewalk as well. I would highly recommend. Thank you."

"Contacted through Angiâ s and was called back by Jonathan within an hour. Came to my house same day and provided me a reasonable quote. Started and finished installing a completely new sprinkler system for the front yard, parkway, and a station for future use in the backyard by going under a block wall. All if this was completed the day after the quote. Excellent work, including cutting through roots of a now gone tree. Highly recommended!"

"I highly recommend them! They were extremely polite, helpful, and professional from start to finish. I live in Florida and hired them to do the job at my parents’ home in California, so I had to handle everything over the phone. They made the entire process so easy and stress-free. My mom said they did an amazing job, and I’m very happy with the service. It’s not always easy coordinating work from another state, but they were reliable, professional, and wonderful to work with. Thank you for taking such great care of my parents’ home!"

"Extremely well. I was able to contact by phone and he request photos of the damage to prepare ahead of time. Quick site visit and then the better part of another day doing the work. He was responsive and diligent about time of arrival updates and working with my schedule. Work itself looks very well done and cleanup was great. Overall one of the best handyman experiences I've had."

Lawns FAQs, answered by experts

No, you cannot throw branches from your neighbor’s tree back into their yard, nor can you discard leaves or other plant matter that originated from their yard back over there if it happens to land in your yard. You are responsible for cleaning up plant matter that made its way into your yard.

The most cost-effective approach to land clearing is DIY-ing what you can, such as removing brush, small saplings, and other more manageable tasks. Then, contact a tree cutting pro to finish the job for the larger vegetation and trees on your property. Get multiple quotes, look for off-season discounts, and scope out all your options to keep things as budget-friendly as possible.

Don’t pick up dirt after aerating. Even though it's tempting because soil cores are incredibly unsightly, these cores and the dirt they leave behind are ecologically important. This is what keeps your grass looking beautiful and growing healthily. The soil cores need two to three weeks to decompose, but you can swat them with a rake if their natural shape bothers you.

To remove old grass effectively, you typically need to dig to one to two inches. This depth typically allows you to reach the root system of the grass, ensuring thorough removal. However, if the grass is a particularly dense or deep-rooted variety (such as Bermuda grass), or if you're planning to replace it with a different landscaping feature, you may need to dig deeper to loosen the soil and remove any underlying roots.

It’s unlikely your leaves are a hazard, especially if you get to them while they’re dry. However, a couple of rare risks exist. University studies suggest that decaying leaves can produce organochlorines, toxic pollutants similar to man-made PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls), so avoid keeping them in an enclosed area.

Also, leaves and compost may cause the growth of fungi that can cause diseases like histoplasmosis and aspergillosis, as well as mold spores that are unhealthy for human lungs. Again, severe issues are rare, but those with compromised immune systems or allergies to mold should wear face masks when directly handling leaves.
