"I hired Ron's Masonry for yard work on May 27th, 2024. They helped me out when my original contractor refused to get back to me regarding my lawn and hedge situation. I cannot say it enough. Ron's Masonry is dependable and did an amazing job and saved me a lot of money and embarrassment. I will be recommending them to anyone who needs a hand. 5 star service.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ And I will be using them again. -Edward Coke, Stamford Connecticut resident"

Customers say: Quality work

"Andy was extremely easy to work with. Our back yard needed a complete makeover and there were serious issues with our neighbors yard which was a major eyesore in our yard. It only took 2 meetings with Andy for him to come up with a solution and complete landscape plan that my husband and I loved. Andy and his team came the day and time that he said they would be there. It took the exact amount of time he said it would. They cleaned up everything after each day. Andy completed the job within my budget! How great is that! It was such a pleasure to work with Andy Medina. Every time I look at my backyard I am smiling and am very grateful!"

Lawns FAQs, answered by experts

To clean an estate, start by locating all important documents, which you’ll need to sort through. Have the mail forwarded, change the locks, and take inventory of the entire estate. Once you know what you’re dealing with, create a plan and a timeline for the cleanout. Start clearing out rooms and sorting items to donate, sell, or get rid of. Finally, deep clean the property.

The fastest way to rid your yard of pesky stickers or burs is to go mechanical on them with a lawn mower or garden rake. Use a lawnmower with a bagger attachment to avoid spreading the seeds around and causing a bigger issue. If you choose to rake the stickers off the plants, be sure to dispose of them properly. Avoid putting them in with the composting and check local guidelines for disposing of lawn waste.

For minor unevenness, you don't necessarily need to remove grass before leveling. You can apply a topdressing mixture to fill in low areas and even out the surface. However, for more significant unevenness or deep depressions, it might be necessary to temporarily remove the grass to ensure proper leveling and soil compaction. After filling and leveling, you can replace the grass or consider reseeding the area.

Lazy composting involves putting leaves, grass clippings, and plant trimmings in a corner of your yard and letting nature take its course. There is no turning, watering, or balancing green and brown materials. It’s a low-effort, long-term approach that can take up to one or two years to create finished compost. It is perfect for gardeners who don’t mind waiting and want a no-fuss way to repurpose organic waste.

Several tools exist that can help remove unwanted grass. The one you choose depends greatly on how much you need to remove and how hard you'd like to work. A sod or turf cutter is the fastest method while using a shovel is labor-intensive and much slower. You may also need a garden rake, tiller, and wheelbarrow.
