"Lloyd was great! Had awesome ideas and understood my needs. He worked with my budget to come up with a proposal that ticked all the boxes for now. Yard looks beautiful! He transplanted shrubs, planted stunning new shrubs, raked, mulched and repaired lighting. Cleaned up 100% upon leaving. Professional and all around great guy. Will hire again!"

Customers say: Quality work

"I can't say enough great things about MAG Landscaping. I'm so glad I found them on Home Advisor because finding a landscaper isn't an easy thing. Frank did a remarkable job! My neighbors were in awe of the work he performed. I only wish I had "before" pictures. I am in process of selling my house and seeing this transformation gives me hope for a quick sale. I've already recommended to family!"

"Hiring JJT Landscaping was truly the best decision I could have made! With three kids and a busy schedule, our yard had definitely become an afterthought. From the start, they impressed me with their professionalism—showing up exactly when they said they would (huge points for accountability!) and being mindful of our neighbors as well as our tight driveway. Our lawn had been struggling with grubs and brown spots, but within just a few visits, it was transformed. By the time my son’s first birthday party rolled around, the yard looked amazing and was ready to host everyone. JJT Landscaping took a stressful project off our plate and gave us a beautiful space to enjoy. I couldn’t recommend them more!"

"The work exceeded our expectations. We chose them to repair two walls. They installed paver walkway for us a few years and did a superlative job. We are very pleased with work done."

"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 questions, answered by experts

Since you’ll likely be digging a trench to install your yard drainage system, this is a good time to complete other tasks that involve digging up your yard, including: Sprinkler system installation Lawn reseeding Regrading your yard Redesigning your landscaping If your drain is under a walkway or driveway, your contractor must also remove those materials. This is a great time to consider upgrading your hardscaping features, especially if they’re nearing the end of their life span.

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.

The cost to plant a small tree or sapling is between $100 and $300 on average, if you hire a professional. Big trees will cost more and usually require the work of a specialist, so expect to pay over $1,000 for those.

Yes, you can landscape in the rain, but you should take some precautions to keep yourself and your tools safe. Avoid using electric landscaping tools during rainfall, and don’t mow, thatch, aerate, or rake in the rain, as your tools can more easily tear out roots in the loose soil. Be careful when working on wet grass, and take your time to avoid slipping. Avoid putting in new plants before a particularly bad storm, as heavy rain and strong winds can damage or uproot plants that aren’t yet established.

It is possible to plant a tree over a ground stump if it was ground very deeply. However, it is typically best to plant elsewhere so your new tree has room to establish a strong, healthy root system. If you want to plant a tree in the same spot where you currently have a stump, you may want to consider other options, such as stump removal.
