"Cristian, his father and their team did a tremendous job building steps down our very steep slope to our deck. The steps are beautiful and amazingly the job was finished in 1 day!!!! They built a small retaining wall and sourced the exact stones i wanted. I’m excited to continue working with Alvarado Landscaping to complete my garden that will include building a path, planting and putting in irrigation. Alvarado Landscaping is a joy to work with. I’ve already recommended them to my friends and neighbors. They are professional, creative, really nice, hard working, reasonably priced and very efficient. Oh and they show up on time or early. I HIGHLY recommend Alvarado Landscaping. I am extremely happy with their work. Amazing!!!"

"Geico Builders did an amazing job on our bathroom remodel. From the first consultation to the final walkthrough, the team was prompt, professional, and easy to work with. They moved fast but still delivered excellent workmanship. The workers were polite and always cleaned up before heading out, which we really appreciated. Our bathroom looks beautiful now, and the whole project was completely stress-free thanks to them."

"Everything about our experience with Lance Gordon and his company was five stars. Lance did a great job choosing where best to install the lights. His crew was super competent and friendly. The results were spectacular and we have received many compliments from our neighbors. We have had no issues with the lights since they were installed. If you want landscape lighting this is the company to choose."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Multiple rules of thumb exist when discussing tree planting. When planting a tree, the best rule of thumb is to provide it with everything it needs to survive and thrive in its new environment. That may mean learning about the type of tree you're planting and studying the best methods of taking care of it before purchasing and planting. 

Yes, you can absolutely transplant bushes instead of removing them completely. The success depends on the size of the bushes, their age, and the transplanting season. Ideally, transplant during the dormant season (late fall or winter). Dig out the entire root system in one piece, fill the new hole with fresh soil and mulch, and water thoroughly after planting.

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.

The best time to plant a tree is in the spring, so the roots have time to grow into the surrounding soil before winter sets in. Some people recommend planting in the late fall. However, planting in the spring reduces the stress on the tree, as it will be emerging from dormancy, giving it the full spring and summer ahead to acclimate and put down roots into the soil.

Yes, rock gardens do need water. That said, they typically require less regular watering and, instead, more occasional, deep watering since the rocks trap moisture for longer than mulch. Make sure you don’t water your rock garden too much during the winter.
