"Ryan trimmed several large bushes in my front and back yard. He removed the debris and took additional items to the dump. He was pro-active and cleaned areas that needed help."

Customers say: True professional

"Jose was very professional and I enjoyed doing business with his team! I’m just out of college and Jose was able to work out a plan in my price range So it was affordable for me and I wouldn’t have to deal with another muddy season where everything floods. I will be going back to SAC landscapes for future work in my yard and home."

"We hired Palomas Landscaping to install new outdoor lighting system (37 lights) and a drip irrigation system covering both the front and backyards. The owner Miguel was very good on determining the requirements and establishing a fair price. His crew was on time and worked very professionally . They finished the job on time to our satisfaction. I would highly recommend Palomas Landscaping."

"HD Landscaping did an amazing job on our front and backyard project. What started as new sprinklers and sod evolved into a beautifully executed hardscape transformation. Mr. Hoang was incredibly flexible and patient with our last-minute changes. Mid-project, we decided to extend our planter boxes and add lighting for a warmer, more welcoming feel. Even when we changed the planter box height and requested a different type of sod after the initial batch was delivered, Mr. Hoang remained calm and professional throughout. Their top-tier craftsmanship really shined on the planter boxes—their attention to detail on the complex curve was fantastic. HD Landscaping completely transformed our home. I cannot recommend Mr. Hoang and his team enough!"

He responded within 24 hours of my quote request and not only solved the original issue but also repaired a nearby sprinkler head at no extra charge. I highly recommend Soto Garden Tree Landscaping for any sprinkler troubles!"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

Before you begin landscaping with rocks, put down a weed barrier or landscape fabric to prevent pesky weeds from poking through. 

It is possible to DIY complete hardscaping projects, but in most cases, hiring a professional is best to get the job done correctly. Hardscaping—including installing patios, decks, retaining walls, walkways, and water features—is challenging and time-consuming, so the money you spend on a professional is typically worth it. Not only will the quality be better, but you could avoid problems that come along with a lack of hardscaping experience, like drainage issues that can lead to costly foundation damage and leaks in your home.

Landscape design can be a simple service that includes a drawing or visual representation of how your yard can be set up and optimized for your intended purposes. But it can also include all of the manual labor to make your vision a reality. When you speak with your landscape designer, ensure everyone understands the specific services you want. Some add-on services may include the following:

  • Sourcing and delivery of raw materials

  • Professional installation of features, including pergolas, decks, and pathways

  • Drainage system design

  • Recommendations for specific plants and trees

Surface-level tree roots might only pose a small threat, such as being a tripping hazard or obstacle when you mow your lawn. But if mature tree roots start growing in the direction of your home’s foundation or plumbing system, it could be a real problem. Cutting small tree roots out before they grow too large can keep your home safe without removing the whole tree.

DIY home gardening can be relaxing, joyful, and cost-effective. From mowing your lawn to planting your own flower beds, there is a wide variety of gardening tasks that you can do yourself to make your yard look beautiful. If you’d rather spend your time not in the dirt, or if you’d like someone to take care of your plants for you, calling a professional gardening service is best. They can give you a workup of what services you’ll need and how often to schedule them.
