"Mr. Bryan and team did a great job in transforming my unkempt backyard into a beautiful-looking garden. It took them only a week to complete the job. The end result was a spectacular garden with luscious green grass, beautiful colored pebbles, and a lovely lemon tree. Mr. Bryanâ s landscaping skills are excellent and beyond par. Above all, Mr. Bryan completed it within my budget, which was very important to me. He was professional and has excellent work ethics, and he completed the job in time as planned. I would recommend his company to anyone who wishes to transform their backyard into a beautiful garden. The above has been our personal experience with Mr. Bryan and his teamâ s landscaping and gardening skills."

"Jose and Saul are not your average landscapers. They are well versed in landscape design, cement work, plant and legume knowledge, construction and property management. They have been in my employ for over twenty years. They are friendly, bilingual and timely in their appointments. I highly recommend Sola de La Vega!"

"They were the first to respond to my request for regular lawn and yard maintenance. I'm unable to physically keep up with it and my daughter is very busy caring for my disabled husband. Gonzalo and Luis came out and took a look at everything and said yes they could do it and wanted to do it. Most important they wanted the job. I've had companies for various things say they will do a job then not follow through. After agreeing to their proposal they showed up when they said they would, put in a full afternoon of work, and the end result was everything looks great! I'm very happy with the job they did and will continue to use them! Highly recommend their business!"

"I am incredibly pleased with this company. The entire crew were 100% professional. The owner of the company took time to answer my homeowner questions as they came up. He was very patient and thorough. All the men on the job worked incredibly hard and stayed on task throughout the project. They installed the French drain, installed a washout and removed an old deck all in a weekend. I would most certainly recommend them."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Your grass-growing schedule depends on where you live and the variety of grass in your lawn. Cool-season grasses typically stop between November and April with a slowdown at the peak of summer. Warm-season grasses will slow when temperatures drop below 55 degrees Fahrenheit in December and January. Hiring a great lawn care team can help you pinpoint the right moment to cut back on mowing.

The process to winterize your landscaping depends on the plants you have, but generally speaking, you should rake your lawn to avoid leaves from smothering your grass and leading to mold and fungi growth, wrap young trees to protect from fluctuating temperatures, and fertilize your lawn to provide some nutrients for the grass through the colder temperatures. You can also consider marking off small trees and shrubs to avoid accidentally damaging them with snow removal tools.

Overwatering won’t just hurt your wallet with the water bill; it’ll impact the longevity of your lawn. 

Too much water on your grass will deprive the root system of oxygen, stunting its growth and even killing it. Stunted root growth means a weak and disconnected root system. That means the lawn is weaker, making it more vulnerable to diseases and drought.

Depending on the local climate and time of year, you only need to water your lawn by hand once or twice a week. It takes about 25 to 30 minutes with a hose and/or watering can. It doesn't require any electricity or complex irrigation systems and provides some exercise and time outdoors for free. You can also go for longer between waterings during rainy times.

You can thicken new grass by using fertilizer, watering it 1 to 1½ inches per week, mowing when it is at an optimal height, and preventing weeds. You should fertilize your grass while you plant the grass seed, or soon afterward. Use an herbicide to prevent weeds or spot spray with herbicide to kill existing weeds.
