"Claudino is a true professional. Not only were the limbs and branches trimmed, as requested, he noticed other areas that needed addressing, as well. His pricing was very competitive. I will continue to hire him for ALL of our landscaping needs."

"We shopped around several local companies to quote a big project around our pool and some landscaping beds. From the beginning every communication with Alex Masonry was prompt and professional. They came out and took the time to listen to what we envisioned, suggested a few alternatives and helped us come to a final product. Even before we committed to the project, they helped us find showrooms to view the product, offered to meet us there (we declined) and helped walk us through exactly what we needed to see. Their quote wasn't the lowest, and certainly not the highest, but based on what we saw early on, it was certainly the best quality for the price paid. We felt like we were getting our monies worth and that was very important to us. Once we committed to using Alex Masonry, they came out one final time before work started and walked us through every step, meticulously making sure we were all on the same page, to ensure the project came out exactly how we hoped. A reassuring final step before the work actually started. Basic description of the project was to completely remove the existing paver patio around the inground pool. Excavate the old base material and install new base and pavers around the pool. We decided to add river rock beds in certain areas to change the look and feel of the space. They also removed and rebuilt a 40 foot section of a landscaping retaining wall, used an anchoring system and tethered wall to it. They also trenched and designed a drainage system to alleviate future water problems. This required quite extensive manual removal of large buried rocks and some pneumatic drilling of ledge. In addition, they built a large fire pit and capped with existing bluestone steps that were recycled from the demo. I would enthusiastically recommend Alex Masonry. Great crew, hard working, prompt and do an outstanding job. You will be hard pressed to find a company that does such quality work and craftsmanship for the price. Thank you and your crew! We love the new space!"

"I recently had a paver walkway installed, and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out! From start to finish, Nathan was professional, hardworking, and paid attention to every detail. He took the time to make sure everything was done right, and it really shows in the final result. The walkway completely transformed the look of our space — clean, beautiful, and built to last. He showed up on time, kept everything neat, and was great to work with throughout the whole process. If you’re thinking about upgrading your outdoor space, I highly recommend New England Outdoor Living. Quality work like this is hard to come by!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

A half inch above ground level is ideal for metal edging. This provides enough depth for the edging to hold in place and enough height to keep in most landscaping materials (like mulch or gravel). If you install edging too high off the ground, it will stand out from your landscaping and pose a tripping risk. If you install it too low, your ground cover won’t stay in place.

A window flower box should be deep enough that there’s room for a wide selection of plants and the required amount of soil and gravel. Standard flower boxes are 8 inches deep and 8 inches from front to back. Larger is better to increase the variety of plants in the box, but you could run into stability issues as it increases in weight.

The best time to plant a tree is in the spring, so the roots have time to grow into the surrounding soil before winter sets in. Some people recommend planting in the late fall. However, planting in the spring reduces the stress on the tree, as it will be emerging from dormancy, giving it the full spring and summer ahead to acclimate and put down roots into the soil.

The condition and appearance of your yard can affect your home appraisal value. A well-maintained, attractive yard with curb appeal adds to a property’s value, while an overgrown, messy, poorly maintained yard can hurt your home’s appraisal. Even small cosmetic improvements to your yard, like adding mulch, trimming trees, and cleaning out plant beds, can help your appraisal value.

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.
