"We want to express our very sincere thanks and appreciation to Unique Landscape. Raul (the owner) is very professional, friendly and easy to work with. Raul made sure he explained everything and wanted to make sure we were comfortable. I never met anyone that went that extra mile for his clients. What really impressed me was that everytime I called or texted him he always replied back in a timely manner. Communication was open and honest. Raul's team was great to work with. Especially, Javier (team leader.) Javier listened to our ideas, offered options and made suggestions. He gave us a time frame for which we could expect the different parts to be completed. The project was completed in a very timely manner. His team was very professional. Part of the project included dealing with drainage problems in the area in which the patio was to be built. We are incredibly pleased with that outcome, too. Javier always had a smile and a positive attitude. Javier always answered my questions and addressed my concerns. Javier and his team were very detailed and meticulous in their craft. I will definitely recommend Unique Landscape. Raul and Javier has earned my trust and respect. Jon and Angela."

"I hired El s landscape to install artificial turf at my palm desert home and they did a wonderful job. Emmanuel was very professional from the start as he showed up on time with samples of turf and prices were very fair. The crew was fast and helpful when i had questions. I would totally recommend this company to any who is interested on getting artificial turf."

"Hector with Westcape was amazing. We bought a newly constructed home in PS which needed complete landscaping including grass sod, hedges, synthetic grass, pebble rock, decomposed granite, raised vegetable beds, flower beds, shrubs, trees, drainage piping for entire property, 40 tons of dirt to level the property, complete irrigation system, and landscape lighting for the entire property. It was a massive job and he did it quickly, efficiently, beautifully, and at a very reasonable cost. Out of the dozens of contractors we’ve hired he was by far the best to work with, the most accommodating and checked in with us every step of the way to ensure we were happy with each piece of the project. I strongly recommend Hector and Westcape, you won’t be disappointed (as we so often are with contractors). Not only would I hire him again, we are going to hire him again for more work in the future. His reviews on HomeAdvisor were great and now I know why, I was so pleased I felt compelled to tell everyone so they don’t make a mistake and hire someone else."

"Noe from NF Irrigation and Landscape is top notch. He arrived right on time and did an outstanding job of repairing my entire drip system. He also checked and adjusted my lawn sprinklers at no additional charge. Noe is extremely knowledgeable about his trade plus he's friendly and easy to work with. I highly recommend him and will use him again in the future."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best landscaping for a septic drain field is shallow-rooted grass or native vegetation that helps prevent soil erosion while allowing water to evaporate efficiently. Avoid planting trees, shrubs, or deep-rooted plants near the drain field because the roots can infiltrate pipes and cause blockages. Using mulch or gravel sparingly can also help retain moisture and protect the system without restricting airflow.

Landscaping prices are sometimes negotiable, but it depends on the professional with whom you’re working. In most cases, you’ll have a better chance of negotiating prices down the more work you have done. Your pro might be willing to discount labor if they’re guaranteed a large job. You can also ask your landscaper to recommend more affordable materials that will still bring your vision to life to save.

Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don’t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.

Yes, if you are using rocks to form a pathway or driveway, it’s a good idea to first install landscape fabric before layering in your rocks. Landscape fabric is your first line of defense against unwanted grass and weeds on your rocky surface.

It is possible to DIY complete hardscaping projects, but in most cases, hiring a professional is best to get the job done correctly. Hardscaping—including installing patios, decks, retaining walls, walkways, and water features—is challenging and time-consuming, so the money you spend on a professional is typically worth it. Not only will the quality be better, but you could avoid problems that come along with a lack of hardscaping experience, like drainage issues that can lead to costly foundation damage and leaks in your home.
