"We recently used XtraCare Landscaping for a major project consisting of enlarging our concrete patio, installing pavers on our front porch, building a decorative retaining wall, and creating new and beautiful flower beds in our front yard. We were so satisfied that we also signed up for their gutter cleaning and leaf service, and have already scheduled some additional concrete work I cannot rave enough about how thoroughly pleased we are with their professionalism, honesty, workmanship, work ethic, and attention to detail. Everyone we have dealt with has been a real pleasure to work with, and we look forward to working with them again in the Spring. This company is top notch all the way!"

"Rick returned our calls promptly and gave us a fair quote for services. Baumann's does not overcharge or upsell. Once we settled on Baumann's Landscaping as our contractor, we called Rick and the crew were out the next morning promptly at 9am. We were expecting two days of work to clear the brush, but they completed the job in 4 hours. The crew went above and beyond, killing vines choking our trees, mulching all the deadfall, and pushing the brush line all the way back beyond the trees (we live on Maryland wetlands). Fast, prompt, great job. Would absolutely hire again. A++."

Customers say: Terrific value

"I hired Porter Design Landscaping and Home Improvement to install a metal roof on my pergola after the ice storm destroyed the canvas shades. His company did an excellent job of installing the metal roof and suggested that I get the wood painted to match the rails and agreed with his suggestion and the final product looks amazing"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

There are some instances when you can use extra drywall in your garden. Ideally, unused scraps of new drywall are best for amending soil without the concern of additional chemicals or mold. However, drywall with paint, mold, or potential asbestos requires specialized disposal by a professional and should be kept out of your garden.

Yes, such as sod installation and erosion control for comprehensive site improvement.

Yes, landscaping costs are generally a worthwhile investment that can increase your property value. Landscaping can boost your home's value by up to 30% by improving its curb appeal, which can help it sell faster and for a higher price. Specific projects have a high return on investment (ROI); for example, revamping a front walkway can offer a 100% ROI, while a pristine, well-manicured lawn can deliver an impressive 217% ROI. In addition to the financial returns, you also get to enjoy the improvements, especially with features like an outdoor living area.

As much as you might try to keep a healthy, nutrient-rich lawn, you still may notice signs of St. Augustine decline (SAD)—a viral disease that discolors your grass blades. St. Augustine decline looks like:

  • Discoloration in the leaves (chlorosis)—leaves appear yellow and splotchy

  • Decline in growth

  • Leaves turn black within 3 years

  • Grass appears less vibrant

  • Grass begins to thin

  • Root rot

  • Grass takes longer to recover

The best landscaping for a septic drain field is shallow-rooted grass or native vegetation that helps prevent soil erosion while allowing water to evaporate efficiently. Avoid planting trees, shrubs, or deep-rooted plants near the drain field because the roots can infiltrate pipes and cause blockages. Using mulch or gravel sparingly can also help retain moisture and protect the system without restricting airflow.
