"Carlos Souza of JJT Landscaping is outstanding! I give him my highest recommendation. He is an incredibly hard worker, is conscientious, and takes great pride in his work. He is efficient and gets the job done as quickly as possible. He cleared leaves, mowed grass, removed weeds and saplings from a steep bank, and went above and beyond in every part of the job, all for a reasonable rate. He has a great sense of what looks good in landscaping and makes good recommendations for how to improve the overall appearance of the property. I am thrilled to have found him for our landscaper."

"Denis and his crew did an amazing job installing my beautiful new patio in my back yard, and on the day they finished it we decided to do our front walkway as well because of how excellent they all were. He was very patient with me when I was deciding on the color of the pavers I wanted and was available to answer any questions I had at any point. He also went above and beyond and installed a drain in the yard to prevent the slight flooding we were having prior to installation. They worked fast and efficiently despite the awful heat and humidity we have been having! Could not recommend them more. Will definitely be using 3D again for any future projects and recommend all family and friends to him."

"EXCELLENT company to hire...prompt, kept us advised, showed up when they said they would; treated out property as if it was their own; left our yard clean; took extra precautions with tracks for their heavy equipment. Would hire them again any day of the week!"

"This was a terrific experience. Everything went as planned. The crew arrived on time for every appointment and completed the work on schedule. Communication via email, text, and phone was terrific. The price was fair with no surprises. While on the property, they were polite and considerate of my neighbors and pets. They offered ideas for the best layout and care of the patio. They worked with a sense of urgency. I would hire them again."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

If you don’t like the way your empty drainage ditch looks, reach out to a local landscaping professional to discuss your options. They may be able to liven it up with plants, stones, bushes, or other decorative elements. You can also add your own landscaping, but you should first make sure that it won’t block your ditch or prevent it from operating effectively.

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.

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.
