"M&J Prime Builders were wonderful to work with. Very hard working and did a great job. They can do most things and have great trades people. We had a big project - retaining walls, drainage, leveling, pavers, landscaping, lighting etc. I am very happy with how everything turned out. I would definitely recommend them for any big or small project!"

"Daniel was fantastic. His work exceeded my wildest dreams. The patio and front look great. Cleaned up, trimmed and trashed removed. Due to the high winds my townhouse was a mess. Now it is ready for the white glove test and I don't have to worry. Daniel is going to come back in the spring and do a spring yard clean up for me. By the way, he rates were very reasonable and it was able to do the work the same day! That was especially important since we are now on Covid lock down in our area starting this weekend. Karen"

"Gilbert worked on our front yard which is split by the driveway. Turned out great! He was very professional, prompt and kept us informed of the process throughout. It took a few days but it was very clean at the end of each workday and access to the driveway was never inaccessible which was huge for my wife and son. I would recommend and would rehire if I have another project to do."

Lawns FAQs, answered by experts

In the fall, you should aerate the soil, overseed the bare spots, kill weeds, mow the lawn low, and rake your leaves. By boosting your lawn’s health in the fall, your grass will be stronger throughout the winter and come back healthier in the spring. You should also trim your perennials so that they withstand the winter and are ready for new growth in the spring. 

Depending on the method you choose to remove grass, it may or may not matter whether the grass is wet or dry when you perform the task. A dryer lawn will be easier to negotiate with a sod cutter, especially if you're not planning to reuse the turf. However, using a shovel by hand might be a little easier if the ground is slightly damp but not so much that it sticks to the tool.  

The optimal time to tackle thorn bush removal is during late fall or winter when the bushes are dormant. The plants are less active during this time of year, making it easier to prune and remove. Additionally, you can more easily see what you’re cutting since there are no leaves.

The best way to clean an overgrown yard is to create a multi-stage game plan, from clearing out the debris to cleaning up the edges around hardscaping and landscape curbing. Get rid of yard debris like worn furniture and broken tools first, then start trimming and raking what’s left. Mow the grass, trim the hedges, and rake leaves away. Once that’s complete, move on to more detailed work, like pulling weeds and replanting gardens.

Skunks like to forage for grubs in the soil, like worms and insects, but they are also tempted by trash and pet food bowls, so keeping these items out of sight may help keep skunks away. Skunks also like to set up a den in dark places, such as a crawl space or outbuilding.
