"I got to know Matt, the owner, over a few conversations before we officially hired Gravel Pros LLC. Matt and his team deliver gravel, top soils, etc but we actually hired them initially to haul away a ton of oak brush and other landscape trimmings. Absolute life saver."

"We actually did a lot of research on the installation of artificial turf, and had a few estimates. We decided on Chaz, owner of Rocky Mountain Turf and Greens LLC. because of the time he took to go over everything, show us past jobs, and the options he gave us. We actually had them come out twice because they did such a great job the first time, we had them do another section. We tried for ten years to get grass to grow and couldn't get it done, we didn't want our lawn to look like a putting green and they managed to accommodate our wishes. They actually did a lot more than all the videos we watched on "how to install artificial turf". We've had issues with hiring local companies where we live to do other projects, but they showed up on time, not high or drunk, and were very respectful of our property and us. I would highly recommend them to any one who wants to install artificial turf, and want it done correctly the first time. I do have to say that anyone who has seen the work they've done is highly impressed and actually can't believe it's artificial turf and the attention to detail they used as it isn't a "square" yard, it is bow shaped and has several trees and plants in the center, and it is surrounded by rocks. I have recommended them to other people and they've ended up using them and are extremely happy with the results. Also, I know there have been people posting bad crap about using "artificial" turf and how bad it is for the environment and I just want to say that I notice not a single one of you are giving up your smart phones, your computers, your t.v.'s or cars and living in caves wearing animal skins and eating wild animals you've caught with your bare hands.... so shut up and get a life, and I would much rather have the water I would use trying to keep my lawn looking like a city park to go to farmers and ranchers, you know the people that give us food to live on!!!!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best type of rock for landscaping depends on your specific project and needs, as different rocks are suited for different applications. For covering large areas or creating an affordable driveway, consider gravel, but note that it can wash away in flowing water. For water features, river rocks are a good option. Flagstone and cobblestone are ideal for aesthetically pleasing patios and walkways. If you are building a stone wall, fieldstone or small boulders are up to the task. Large boulders and landscape rocks work well as statement pieces, to fill empty space, or to indicate boundaries, but be mindful that they can overwhelm smaller gardens. The best approach is to first define your landscaping project and then select the rock type that best fits that purpose.

The average cost for landscaping is around $3,500, but prices can range from as low as $200 for simple DIY projects to $14,000 or more for extensive work. Several factors influence the final price, including your geographic location, yard size, project scope, chosen materials, site preparation, and the type of landscaping involved. Professional landscaper labor costs typically range from $50 to $100 per hour.

For a smaller budget, you can focus on softscaping projects like adding mulch, flowers, and shrubs, which might only cost a few hundred dollars if you do the work yourself. A budget of around $5,000 could cover projects like a simple patio, new plants and tree trimming, or a water feature. More extensive hardscaping projects, such as pergolas, patios, and walkways, can push the budget to $14,000 or more. For example, a flower bed installation averages between $800 and $3,000, while landscape lighting installation can cost from $2,000 to $6,000.

Don’t worry if there’s a gap between cutting and planting an ideal branch. You can still cut the perfect branch when you see it. If you can’t get it in a pot or water right away, put it in a zip-top bag in the refrigerator. When you’re ready to finish the process, make a fresh cut.

Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don’t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.
