"Customer service from Precision Landscapes was excellent..I called them and they finished up a project and came right over.. Brian Wagner is the man.. I highly recommend Precision Landscapes for being upfront and honest. It's a shame that I didn't find them sooner. Here's to a nice green lawn..Thank you. Bronwyn Johnson"

"Mike, Owner, comes to initial appointment for overview of my project, did not send a "representative". He made suggestions and he, Brandon and Steven were prompt and worked very hard. My front and back yard look fantastic with new pavers and landscaping. I appreciate workers who give 120% effort. They are very skilled professionals and I HGHLY recommend them!! Give them 10 stars."

"Jon Butcher did a wonderful job on a rather large front yard. He eliminated the sorry grass, added two sizes of rock, a walking path and plants to accentuate the rest of the yard. He also redid the watering system. In today's world it is refreshing to find (1) someone who knows what he is doing and (2) someone who keeps you informed, shows up when he says he will and is (3) really a nice person. Thanks Jon Butcher!"

"We've used Holland's team for the last two years to clean up our property (3/4 acre) after a brutal winter. Our lot collects a lot of pine needles, broken branches, and pine cones. Tad's team does an excellent job of picking up all the yard debris while ensuring the plants and watering system are left intact. We plan use them once again in the spring of 2027..."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

You may need to lay sod on the areas you dug up once you get the okay from the contractor. It will take about 30 to 45 days for the sod to take root. Consult a local sod installer to get an accurate estimate of the timeline of your specific yard-enhancement project.

A window flower box should be deep enough that there’s room for a wide selection of plants and the required amount of soil and gravel. Standard flower boxes are 8 inches deep and 8 inches from front to back. Larger is better to increase the variety of plants in the box, but you could run into stability issues as it increases in weight.

Multiple rules of thumb exist when discussing tree planting. When planting a tree, the best rule of thumb is to provide it with everything it needs to survive and thrive in its new environment. That may mean learning about the type of tree you're planting and studying the best methods of taking care of it before purchasing and planting. 

The truth is, there really is no such thing as a 100% deer-proof plant. Deer will decimate even the prickliest flora if they’re hungry enough. However, there are plenty of beautiful plants that deer don’t necessarily enjoy. These include thistles, wisteria vines, sword ferns, and beautyberries.

Deer are herbivores, and they love vegetable gardens as much as Peter Rabbit. If you don’t want to fence in your entire property, consider creating an attractive raised-bed veggie garden with mesh fencing around it to keep out deer and other critters.

As much as you might try to keep a healthy, nutrient-rich lawn, you still may notice signs of St. Augustine decline (SAD)—a viral disease that discolors your grass blades. St. Augustine decline looks like:

  • Discoloration in the leaves (chlorosis)—leaves appear yellow and splotchy

  • Decline in growth

  • Leaves turn black within 3 years

  • Grass appears less vibrant

  • Grass begins to thin

  • Root rot

  • Grass takes longer to recover
