"I am very pleased with my new backyard landscaping done by Sayre Landscaping. It included a complete make-over, installing new turf, plants, and a new paver walkway. It also included installing a new drip system for the back & front yards. Brad the owner, met with me so we could discuss what I wanted and he made recommendations that would work. The installers', his son & son-in-law were very friendly, efficient and accommodating if I wanted anything. When the job was done, everything was cleaned up and Brad personally came to make sure everything was completed as I wanted. I would highly recommend Sayre Landscaping. Bety Rowell"

"Juan and his crew did a great landscaping project in our backyard. It involved removing very long and old flagstone pathways, creating a concrete patio and border wall, and putting gravel on our pathways. They were friendly, communicated well, and very hard workers."

"Jose and Saul are not your average landscapers. They are well versed in landscape design, cement work, plant and legume knowledge, construction and property management. They have been in my employ for over twenty years. They are friendly, bilingual and timely in their appointments. I highly recommend Sola de La Vega!"

"Roman did an excellent job at a fair price. He redid our backyard with flagstones and plantings. His attention to detail is excellent. The final result was better than I had hoped for in part due to helpful suggestions by Roman. When the inevitable change orders arose he did the additional work at a fair price. I have supervised contractors for forty years and he is one of the best. I highly recommend Green Quality Landscape to anyone planning a landscaping project."

"Jeremy and Mario at Black Diamond Pavers & Landscape did an amazing job on our turf and brick layout. Jeremy has a true designer’s eye and matched the new brick perfectly, while Mario’s crew worked quickly, cleanly, and with great attention to detail. The turf looks lush, the seams are flawless, and Jeremy’s plant knowledge tied the whole garden together beautifully. Highly recommend this team — our yard has never looked better!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Most bamboo can send roots down two to three feet into the ground. However, when stopping bamboo from spreading, the focus is on the runner roots or rhizomes. These roots are much shallower, staying 12 inches or less from the surface, so they’re easier to find and remove. But if you want to remove the bamboo entirely, you’ll have to dig out the full root system.

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.

The best type of rock for landscaping depends on your specific project and needs, as different rocks are suited for different applications. For covering large areas or creating an affordable driveway, consider gravel, but note that it can wash away in flowing water. For water features, river rocks are a good option. Flagstone and cobblestone are ideal for aesthetically pleasing patios and walkways. If you are building a stone wall, fieldstone or small boulders are up to the task. Large boulders and landscape rocks work well as statement pieces, to fill empty space, or to indicate boundaries, but be mindful that they can overwhelm smaller gardens. The best approach is to first define your landscaping project and then select the rock type that best fits that purpose.

Professional lakefront landscaping addresses environmental factors such as water level fluctuations, erosion control, and native plant suitability. Regular maintenance includes pruning, fertilization, and ensuring drainage systems function well.

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.
