"Mario installed a new drip irrigation system to replace the old broken sprinklers, and he installed a new front yard based on my design. He carefully reviewed the design and recommended some alternatives to the plants/sizes called for in the design. These changes saved me money and would require less maintenance which was important because I was tired of maintaining a front lawn. Mario was a super professional, he responsed promptly to messages and kept me advised of his schedule so i knew where he was in the job and what was coming next. He takes tremendous pride in his work and actually did most of it himself. The workspace was left clean each evening and in just a few days I had a beautiful new yard and irrigation system. I have never been so pleased with a contractor and recommend Mario highly."

"Landscape Locators has been great from the start. I was impressed with how they used technological imaging to view my yard to give me a quote. It rained on the day the gardeners were supposed to start and instead of skipping that week, I was notified by email that they would come the following day instead! This was also very positive since my previous gardeners never did that. I mentioned to them a few plants that needed to be trimmed when they were able to, and to my surprise, they got it all done on the first day. They really put in quality time (1 hour) and deserve the 5 stars I gave them! I highly recommend this company if you re looking for better than average gardeners."

"Job completed professionally and quickly at a reasonable price. Work was a major clean-up of my front garden beds: weeding, trimming. Jazz did everything that we discussed and also completed a few things that I requested as the work was being done. Plan to use him again soon for the next stage of this project."

"It went very well. New lawn, and plants were added to backyard. A brickwork planter was built in front side yard with trees and plants. A small cement sidewalk was added to backyard and some plant removal and tree pruning was done. Looks great! I’ve received lots of compliments."

"This company, Vega Landscape, is amazing! Not only are they professional in every way, but provide a concierge type service that most companies just don't possess in this day and age. We were made to feel that we were not just another client. The job consisted of backyard and front yard sprinkler & timer repairs, and slight changes to the watering system. They were professional, clean, and pricing was fair. Even on a Memorial Day Weekend. Gotta love 'em."

Customers say: Quick response

"Called L.G. Major Landscape & Clean Ups to clear some overgrown by many years vegetation from a wooden fence to be replaced and an area where a new fence was going up. Also needed some reworking of the existing sprinkler system. Eddie responded right away. Came to my home to check the scope of work and quoted me a fair price for the job. He and his crew showed up on time to do the job and completed it as scheduled. Did a great job! Looking to have him do some hardscape and stonework next. Give Eddie a call for your project and the opportunity to earn your business. Thank you Eddie & Crew!"

Lawn Care FAQs, answered by experts

St. Augustine grass grows fast thanks to its dense mat-like structure and vigorous root system. If you've laid St. Augustine sod, it'll put down roots, get itself established, and start to spread in 14 days.

To reduce landscaping costs, you can implement several strategies at every stage. Consider doing the work yourself (DIY) to save on professional labor fees. You can also repurpose existing features and materials from other home projects. When purchasing new items, choose more inexpensive materials and opt for softscaping over hardscaping where possible. Another effective method is to buy young plants or plant from seed, which is more cost-effective than purchasing mature plants.

A standard home lawn mower with sharp blades can handle a thin layer of leaves without issue. You may need to make a couple of passes within several days to mulch leaves down, but your mower shouldn’t struggle. If your mower comes with a mulching kit, like an attachment to blow leaves out the side, that’s a good sign it’s ready for fall leaves. Set your mower to the highest or near-highest height for this project so it focuses on the leaves rather than the grass below.

No, it isn’t illegal, but many cities and towns have noise ordinances that it could violate. Either way, it can still cause problems if it bothers your neighbors. For motor-powered lawnmowers, the general consensus for common courtesy is to wait until after 8 a.m. to mow your lawn. However, if you have a push mower, you should be safe to mow at any time of day, provided you don’t make excessive noise in other ways.

Carpetgrass is distinguishable by its pale green to yellowish color and coarse appearance that grows well under shady conditions in poor and compact soils. If it grows uncontrolled, it tends to develop a hairy seedhead, giving patches of grass a messy appearance. If carpetgrass is regularly cut, it looks very similar to centipedegrass and St. Augustine grass, and people may confuse them. Carpetgrass blades are flat and rounded at the tip. Note that the grass only typically grows as a weed in Southern states.
