"In the hiring of a contractor process, JM Landscaping stood out above the others. He explained in detail what he would do in cleaning the yard and removing leaves. His quote was better than i expected. He had a great personality and was very easy to talk with. On completion of the project I was beyond satisfied. I plan on staying in touch with this company for any future home projects. This company deserves a 5+ rating in my book"

"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!"

"I hired Design and Build Masonry LLC to build a gravel foundation with a lumber perimeter and to construct my shed—and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, they were reliable, punctual, and incredibly professional. They answered all my questions thoroughly and provided everything I requested, including their Certificate of Insurance (COI), without hesitation. Communication was smooth, and they made sure I felt confident every step of the way. They showed up on time, stayed on schedule, and delivered exactly what they promised. I’m very happy with their service and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for dependable, skilled contractors. Thanks again!"

"H-4 did an amazing job on my property. It had 10 years of growth closing in on my house, they did all the tree heavy brush weeds that were thick as trees removal. The yard looks so great and I haven’t seen this small stone retaining wall in my back yard in ages. Yard looks so much bigger. Great work."

"I highly recommend Mike and his team! The services we requested were leaf removal, dead/fallen branch removal, bush trimming, garden bed trimming, edging, and final lawn cutting of the season. They were mindful of the yard toys we couldn’t put away, price was very reasonable, and our lawn looks AMAZING. Definitely give them a call for any lawn service."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

It is possible to DIY complete hardscaping projects, but in most cases, hiring a professional is best to get the job done correctly. Hardscaping—including installing patios, decks, retaining walls, walkways, and water features—is challenging and time-consuming, so the money you spend on a professional is typically worth it. Not only will the quality be better, but you could avoid problems that come along with a lack of hardscaping experience, like drainage issues that can lead to costly foundation damage and leaks in your home.

Yes, if you are using rocks to form a pathway or driveway, it’s a good idea to first install landscape fabric before layering in your rocks. Landscape fabric is your first line of defense against unwanted grass and weeds on your rocky surface.

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.

The best size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.

Common features in lakefront landscaping projects include native and water-tolerant plants, stone paths, docks or piers, seating areas, and erosion control solutions to create a harmonious integration with the waterfront setting.
