Customers say: Quick response

"What a complete pleasure it was to have Rutras Concrete work making my walkway and porch look amazing! From introduction to Artur to the completed project, I felt fully confident in their undertaking and execution of the design and look I had requested. Artur told me from the start that he would make my vision become reality, and he did. I asked for stamped concrete that would look like beachwood for my walkway, porch, and flowerbeds and what I received was that and more!!! The compliments I get on a DAILY basis from my neighbors and strangers who happen to walk by on how beautiful and realistic the *beachwood* looks makes me very happy. I love it, anyone who sees it loves it, and lots of people become inspired to call upon Rutras Concrete because of it. I highly recommend Rutras Concrete do your next project. The professionalism, the price point, the efficiency, and the peace of mind you will experience will make you not only a happy customer, but a customer who will return to them for future projects. That is what I plan to do!!! Dale K."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The primary disadvantages of xeriscaping are the high upfront cost and the significant labor required to establish it. A xeriscaping project can cost between $3,000 and $24,000 on average. Additionally, the resulting landscape will have less of a traditional green appearance, which may not appeal to everyone's personal taste and could potentially narrow your pool of buyers if you decide to sell your home. However, despite these initial drawbacks, the long-term benefits include saving water, time, and money on lawn maintenance.

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 are xeriscaping a lawn from scratch, your best bet for preparing the lawn is to work with a xeriscaping specialist in your area. The most common first step to making the transformation, however, will be to remove the turfgrass from your lawn. The subsequent steps will often include amending the soil to support new plants and installing low-drip or drip irrigation systems.

If shade is a priority for you, then panting elm trees is a fine choice. A full mature elm tree has enough aesthetic appeal for some folks that it could add value to your home. 

That said, never plant elm trees too close to your home, sewer line, or sidewalks, as their roots can damage these, which can lead to costly repairs.

The best time to plant is between spring and autumn. Springtime weather is typically mild and is when nurseries start to bloom. When the summer weather arrives and it’s hot out, it’s best to avoid planting bare-root plants, but you can still plant many in-container varieties. The first sign of fall is another great opportunity to plant biennials if you live in southern states, or a lovely vegetable garden up north.
