"My husband and I hired Corey from Planet Excavation 3 times - first for the garage foundation, then for roads, and the 3rd project was the 4-bedroom-home septic. I was thrilled with the quality of his work, his knowledge, his honesty and the price! His bid was the lowest, but his work was better than I ever expected. My husband is a picky engineer and Corey met his standards with ease and professionalism. I would not call anyone else in the four corners area for anything that Corey is able to do. Also, he had referred us to several other companies to complete other tasks involved in building a home and improving our lot; they were all honest and hardworking (just like Corey). You would be foolish to hire anyone else...just sayin' Alana CL"
"Trevor and his crew did an outstanding job. We are very pleased with their work. The large moss rocks look amazing. The red mulch really high lights and accentuates the different levels of landscaping. The dry river bed really adds depth to the whole project. The sod that was added on both sides of the sidewalk works great with the whole concept."
"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."
"Beyond great service! Gavin and Kayson have absolutely amazing communication and customer service. They scheduled me very quickly and removed a large broken couch in no time at all. Kayson even swept up the grossness from under the couch for me. I highly recommend Desert Bros Junk Removal! I know I will be utilizing them again and again! THANKS GUYS!!"

"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!!!!"
In most cases, buying plants from a local greenhouse or nursery is well worth the investment, even though they tend to be a bit more expensive than those at a home improvement store. Employees at nurseries are usually well-versed in gardening and understand how the climate in your area affects different plants. They can help you make selections based on your skill level and time commitment to your landscaping, and they can provide detailed care instructions and advice to help keep your plants alive and diagnose and treat issues like pest infestation and illness.
If you use the wrong plants for your gardening zone, you’ll likely get less than desirable yields from them. In some cases, your plants can even die. It’s important to ensure that your plants are able to survive in your hardiness zone before getting them into the ground.
The best time to plant a privet hedge is autumn, ideally October or early November. Fall is the best time to plant privet hedges because young plants need plenty of water to jump-start their growth, and it typically rains more during this season. However, you can also successfully plant privets in the spring.
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.
