"I am a new customer with BJA Bros. So far everything has been great. My lawn is being well maintained, the clean-up after the lawn has been cut is exactly what I've been looking for, and the communication has been smooth. I've been searching for a competent landscaping company for awhile and I may have found the right one. Hoping this partnership continues to be a great one."

"Ron and his assistant arrived on time to do some fall cleanup landscaping at my house. What would have taken me three days to do, plus hauling away the debris, took them under two hours. It was the very best money I ever spent - more so because I got to meet such lovely people, but also because they helped me a great deal. I will be calling them in the spring for a clean up and masonry work."

"White Garden Designs is the Best!! I have used him for at least 10 years now and nobody cares more or is more detail oriented than Charlie. I have recommended him and his company to dozens of friends and everyone was as pleased as I am. They always show up on time and if there is ever a problem (which I haven't had) they will always make it right. He takes pride in his work and it shows. He also is a Koi pond specialist, designing and maintenance. This man does it all. He is the go to guy for all your landscaping and pond needs."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best way to landscape your front yard on a budget is to invest in hiring a professional for hardscaping—things like upgrading walkways, redoing driveways, and installing partitions around garden beds. You can often do the softscaping yourself—think laying down mulch, caring for your lawn, removing weeds, and planting flowers and shrubs. It’s also almost always worthwhile to pay a professional for routine yard maintenance, as this dramatically improves curb appeal and delivers above 100% ROI in most cases.

If you’re hiring a landscaper to plant the garden of your dreams, you do not need to provide them with plants that you bought yourself from a nursery. While you certainly can provide your landscaper with plants, keep in mind that some nurseries provide discounts to landscaping companies, therefore potentially lowering your materials cost. Beyond the cost of the plants themselves, you need to have additional materials like topsoil and mulch for the project. Most likely, your landscaper can get a discount on these materials as well, so it’s worth speaking with them before making any large purchases.

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.

While you can leave roots in the ground, if you don’t want the shrub to regrow again over time, it’s best not to leave any roots behind. Ensure you remove as much of the shrub as possible, including the root ball and any main roots you can see, to prevent new growth. Some gardeners opt for using a chemical treatment to prevent the stump from growing back, but this can kill beneficial microorganisms living in your soil.

Landscaping prices are sometimes negotiable, but it depends on the professional with whom you’re working. In most cases, you’ll have a better chance of negotiating prices down the more work you have done. Your pro might be willing to discount labor if they’re guaranteed a large job. You can also ask your landscaper to recommend more affordable materials that will still bring your vision to life to save.
