"Jose evaluated our sprinkler system, told us everything worked, that he really only needed to find where our sprinklers were. Once that was accomplished, he turned the system on, which worked perfectly. He said he would be happy to work with us in the future. Ron Hay"

"Rigo provided a very reasonable estimate. They did a tremendous amount of work. The end result was GREAT. He communicates well. Tells us clearly, what he can and cannot do. Gives us good reasons. His team is polite and gets the job done. (Rigo also does our monthly yard work, and the same excellent service comes through there as well.)"

"A company like no other!! Encore builders did a fantastic job on our front yard. I had been debating between artificial grass and sod for quite some time now. I know artificial grass is less work but I prefer to have the real deal - nothing like the smell of a fresh mowed lawn(; I honestly didnâ t even consult with any other company. My sister did a huge project with Encore Builders in the Malibu area about a year ago and the results were flawless and look as good today as it did when the project was freshly completed. Brandon and Ozzy came over to scope out the area and take some measurements and we went ahead and set a date to start the project. The crew workers came over and removed all the previous debris and grass. They leveled out the area and added some fertilizer. The following day they came with the fresh sod and laid it out in perfect rows. As you can see there are no gaps between sod pieces and everything looks fabulous! Brandon and Oz said the frequent rain will actually help the sod and allow it establish roots (usually Im not a fan of the rain but hey at least there was a bright side this time). I canâ t wait to see the results in a few months once the grass has settled in. Now in addition to the beautiful work Brandon and Oz have done - I just say their charming personalities is what truly stands out. I understand why they have such glowing reviews and why my sister was adamant I use their services. They are just two down to earth guys who know their stuff. They are professional and communicative and simply the sweetest people. Thanks again guys!!!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Reasonably priced. Pleasant to deal with. On time. Went right to work on day of project and did a very thorough job in timely fashion. Had a hillside of brush clearance involving weeds, bushes, and three small trees. When everything was done the hillside looked great and was as safe from brush fire as could be. I'd hire them again to maintain the landscape and for other related jobs."

Lawns FAQs, answered by experts

While you don’t need to put anything down before mulch, you can apply a pre-emergent herbicide to prevent weed growth. As long as you remove weeds before you spread mulch, you should be in the clear. But a herbicide is something that you can put down before mulch as an extra layer of protection.

There are tools known as “sprinkler donuts” that are specially designed to aid in cutting the grass around your sprinkler heads by protecting them from your mower or weed whacker. You can also use a pair of hand shears to do the job manually if you’re willing to get a little dirty.

For minor unevenness, you don't necessarily need to remove grass before leveling. You can apply a topdressing mixture to fill in low areas and even out the surface. However, for more significant unevenness or deep depressions, it might be necessary to temporarily remove the grass to ensure proper leveling and soil compaction. After filling and leveling, you can replace the grass or consider reseeding the area.

Lazy composting involves putting leaves, grass clippings, and plant trimmings in a corner of your yard and letting nature take its course. There is no turning, watering, or balancing green and brown materials. It’s a low-effort, long-term approach that can take up to one or two years to create finished compost. It is perfect for gardeners who don’t mind waiting and want a no-fuss way to repurpose organic waste.

The fastest way to rid your yard of pesky stickers or burs is to go mechanical on them with a lawn mower or garden rake. Use a lawnmower with a bagger attachment to avoid spreading the seeds around and causing a bigger issue. If you choose to rake the stickers off the plants, be sure to dispose of them properly. Avoid putting them in with the composting and check local guidelines for disposing of lawn waste.
