"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!"

"I hired Rod Ballou Jr. Creative Landscapes to help me with my my property. I want to sincerely thank Rod for taking the time to listen to me after my very upsetting experience with Homemate Handyman and Justin Saetern at my property. Rod and I had a very detailed conversation about my vision for a butterfly sanctuary in honor of my beloved grandson, Jaxson , who passed away on August 31, 2019. This project means so much to me, and I wanted to create something beautiful and meaningful in his memory. I am beyond words to express how happy I am with Rod’s work. He truly puts his heart and soul into what he does, and that dedication shows in the results. It means so much to have someone who listens, understands your vision, and genuinely cares about bringing it to life. I am incredibly grateful to Rod and would highly recommend him for any future landscaping projects at my home. Thank you, Rod, for helping me create something so special in honor of Jaxson . ❤️🦋"

"I hired another company, from Paradise, not affiliated with Home Advisor, who never came back to finish the job. After waiting several months, I hired Branson. He hauled in several loads of dirt and gravel and graded my yard front and back. He did a great job. I would hire him again."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

The soil around your foundation should slope down and away from your home, not toward it. If the grading drops the farther you are from your home, you can enhance the slope by removing more soil. Mark off a few feet from your house and dig up some of this soil. Regrading around your fountain should encourage water to flow away from your home and not collect or “pond.”

The condition and appearance of your yard can affect your home appraisal value. A well-maintained, attractive yard with curb appeal adds to a property’s value, while an overgrown, messy, poorly maintained yard can hurt your home’s appraisal. Even small cosmetic improvements to your yard, like adding mulch, trimming trees, and cleaning out plant beds, can help your appraisal value.

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.

The best time to plant a privet hedge is autumn, ideally October or early November. Fall is the best time to plant privet hedges because young plants need plenty of water to jump-start their growth, and it typically rains more during this season. However, you can also successfully plant privets in the spring.

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.
