"Peter and crew did a wonderful job of transforming our front yard from blah to wow. We are so happy every time we look out our front window or drive up to our home. Peter was very easy to work with. He listened to what we wanted to do, made a few suggestions and came up with a couple of great ideas as the project progressed. They completed the job on time and also cleaned up after each day's work. We would use Green Hornet Landscaping again and would definitely recommend them."

"I have been using ?Roblero Sod Installation and Landscaping? for over two years and I couldn?t be more pleased with the attention to detail and professionalism. If I have a project either big or small, Jose is always up for the challenge with competitive proofing and quick service. In my onion, you would be doing yourself a disservice if you contract another landscaping company."

"Southern Landscaping did an outstanding job mulching all the landscaping beds in and around our large condo community! Their team worked incredibly hard, completing the project quickly with excellent results. We're very happy with their efficient and high-quality work and would not hesitate to hire them again in the future. Lupe was extremely easy to work with and very responsive to our requests. Hire him!"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

As long as you’re building a greenhouse, consider the overall look of your backyard. Could it benefit from stone walkways or grading? As long as you’re hiring a hardscaping pro to lay the foundation for a greenhouse, you could tackle those other projects to give your whole yard a glow-up at the same time.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

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 average cost for landscaping is around $3,500, but prices can range from as low as $200 for simple DIY projects to $14,000 or more for extensive work. Several factors influence the final price, including your geographic location, yard size, project scope, chosen materials, site preparation, and the type of landscaping involved. Professional landscaper labor costs typically range from $50 to $100 per hour.

For a smaller budget, you can focus on softscaping projects like adding mulch, flowers, and shrubs, which might only cost a few hundred dollars if you do the work yourself. A budget of around $5,000 could cover projects like a simple patio, new plants and tree trimming, or a water feature. More extensive hardscaping projects, such as pergolas, patios, and walkways, can push the budget to $14,000 or more. For example, a flower bed installation averages between $800 and $3,000, while landscape lighting installation can cost from $2,000 to $6,000.

If you’re hiring a landscaper to plant the garden of your dreams, you do not need to provide them with plants that you bought yourself from a nursery. While you certainly can provide your landscaper with plants, keep in mind that some nurseries provide discounts to landscaping companies, therefore potentially lowering your materials cost. Beyond the cost of the plants themselves, you need to have additional materials like topsoil and mulch for the project. Most likely, your landscaper can get a discount on these materials as well, so it’s worth speaking with them before making any large purchases.
