"First off Trejos landscaping is a awesome company to do business with. They are super professional and very accommodating. They like to get in and get the job done, they totally revamped my back yard with turf and a flowerbed out of pavers. They were also able to help with getting concrete added to my yard. Now they do my regular maintenance for the front yard."

"Silverio came out and helped design a landscape for several plants I had and installed a drip irrigation system at a very reasonable price. He even searched for a specific plant and color off season at several places in the county! I have hired him and his crew to do ongoing maintenance. They are professional, reliable, and reasonably priced, and I have recommended them to several of my friends. I often have requests for specific yard maintenance or upgrades and they are able to accomodate them without an issue. I am glad I have their help working on my yard!"

"Velasco Landscaping did an amazing job installing pavement at my property! From start to finish, the team was professional, efficient, and detail-oriented. The quality of the work exceeded my expectations, and the finished pavement looks fantastic—clean lines, solid craftsmanship, and it’s built to last. They were respectful of the space, cleaned up thoroughly after the job, and completed everything on time. I highly recommend Velasco Landscaping for anyone looking for top-notch paving work and reliable service. Definitely a 5-star experience!"

"Cruz is XLT. Brought his crew, trucks a hauling trailer to take care of our much needed yard clean up on short notice and did a very thorough job. Came back next day and did gutters. Cruz will be doing our regular yard care and we could not be happier. I have used many other landscaping services over the years and GreenEarth Landscaping stands out as the best of them. Very pleased. Note, he goes by his last name, Cruz."

"This is not a reasonable price for the work that they were requested to do. They wanted to charge me $40.00 for 30 min of yard work per person. So if 2 people worked on the yard the price would be $80.00 for 30 minutes of yard work. They were only suppose to pull the weeds and cut of the dead flowers."

"Look no further! Jeremy is very professional, clean, efficient, and does a great job. I hired him based on reviews and after meeting him in person. I highly recommend his services. The ceiling light he installed was perfectly done. He had instructed me to shop for was needed before he arrived (which saved time and money), for example, a dimmer switch and light bulbs. Everything went so well and I am very pleased."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Plant a peach tree right at the end of your local dormancy period, likely at the very end of winter after the last frost when you can dig into the soft soil. Plan your backyard gardening season, including when planting peach trees, based on the frost schedule predicted in your local hardiness zone.

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.

Other projects that you can do at the same time as your trellis include painting the deck , installing a pergola, or adding mulch to your garden beds.

You should use mulch because it protects garden soil in a few key ways. This extra layer between the ground and the elements protects against erosion, helps your soil maintain moisture, regulates changes in temperature, adds nutrients as it decomposes, and keeps weeds at bay.

The primary disadvantages of xeriscaping are the high upfront cost and the significant labor required to establish it. A xeriscaping project can cost between $3,000 and $24,000 on average. Additionally, the resulting landscape will have less of a traditional green appearance, which may not appeal to everyone's personal taste and could potentially narrow your pool of buyers if you decide to sell your home. However, despite these initial drawbacks, the long-term benefits include saving water, time, and money on lawn maintenance.
