"Very well, I decided to expand the project after the initial bid and they were very honest with the additional charges for the work that was required after the original quote. Positives- they returned every call, before, during and after the project. They showed up when they said they would and are genuinely concerned with you, the customer being satisfied with their work. And they cleaned up the work site-my driveway which was the staging area, with no sign of them being there. I never give 5 stars but these guys deserve it."

"Alex removed our existing concrete patio, installed a paver patio, and rebuilt a stone wall. He and his crew were courteous, professional, and extremely knowledgeable, paying great attention to detail. Alex was also very accommodating, meeting us at a stone yard to help pick out materials. We highly recommend Alex Masonry and would definitely hire them again."

"I needed to find someone for yard clean up and removal. It was after hours on a Friday and I needed the work done before Monday Morning for pictures for my home sale listing. Within minutes I received a call back and Ethan was at my house with in 15 minutes with very reasonable quote. Ethan and his crew showed up Saturday morning and worked extremely hard for most of the day. Then returned again on Sunday in the pouring rain to finish things I added last minute. They are very respectful and extremely hardworking guys. My yard looked amazing with all the bushes trimmed, dead branches cut down, leaves cleared,gardens blown out, and tree logs removed . I highly recommend them!!"

"Excellent job on a tough problem of a sinkhole under a bilco door. Excavated, Filled and compacted w no damage then controlled surface water w a perfectly pitched small paver patio. Lawn in work area freshened w topsoil and reseeded. Like he was never there! RiverBirch Landscaping are true craftsman who care about the quality of their work. Customer satisfaction is always a priority. Robert McKiernan puts a great deal of thought into all of the projects he undertakes before he breaks ground which equates to an excellent result. I recommend him highly and predict he will be the premier landscaper in our area in a very short time"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, it is possible to add too little mulch. Anything less than 1 inch will likely result in too little coverage around your plants, allowing weeds to grow through and minimizing the positive effects that a deeper bed of mulch would have, like maintaining proper soil moisture and insulating the ground.

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.

If you live in an area with heavy rain or you like the idea of an extra layer of cushion under your feet, you may want to consider adding additional layers under your grass. There are pads that are purely for comfort and ones that can help accelerate drainage for those heavy rains.

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.

Yes, backyard landscaping and total-home landscaping add value to your home. According to the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA), high-quality landscape design has a 20 to 30 percent return on investment. So, when it comes time to sell your home, having a beautiful backyard landscaping oasis will increase your home’s value.
