"Pete is a bundle of energy! He was one of the first responders, quoted a reasonable price and had solid thoughts about the potential. If you have a plan in mind, he will make it happen. If not, stand back and turn him loose. Our front landscape was an overgrowth disaster, Pete made it right. Trustworthy and recommended."

"Prompt professional work. Marco and his crew cleared and landscaped my overgrown disaster of a yard in a timely manner. A beautiful mulched garden was put in. Marco's price was by far the most reasonable quote I was given. A+ work, I highly recommend Marco Landscaping."

"Derek and the gang did a BANG up job. I got just what I was looking for. At first visit, I was just going to re sod the lawn. Then i read Shady Lady website. I called Derek back to have a talk about a change in plans. Now I can't be MORE pleased that Derek took the time, to come back and work with me on my new quest. I love my yard. And the lighting of it at night. WOW WOW WOW."

"Wonderfully! MDA LAWN was extremely professional and thorough with their service! I've used them repeatedly on trimming, hedging and mowing. II needed a troublesome bush deeply rooted in my yard taken out and they were able to remove it in no time, and on an extremely quick turnaround time! Lifesavers! I've recommended them to friends and family because it's hard to find a service nowadays that doesn't cut corners !"

"I had the pleasure of hiring California Palms Landscaping for a large project at my home. Steven Miro and his team were fantastic. They installed a sprinkler system, plants and sod for my front and back yards. They were efficient, cost-effective and the utmost professionals. I was so pleased with the results I hired them again to install my patio. It looks awesome! I will be using California Palms Landscaping for all of my outdoor needs. I highly recommend you try them."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can hydroseed with a garden hose, but you’ll need a tank or other large vessel for mixing the slurry, then a pump to send the slurry through the hose for spraying. Making your own hydroseeding unit can work, but it’s not usually worth the effort and supplies unless you already have them.

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.

If shade is a priority for you, then panting elm trees is a fine choice. A full mature elm tree has enough aesthetic appeal for some folks that it could add value to your home. 

That said, never plant elm trees too close to your home, sewer line, or sidewalks, as their roots can damage these, which can lead to costly repairs.

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.

You'll likely need more than great home staging to sell your home. Now is a great time to get to work on the curb appeal of your home . Hire local exterior painters and landscapers to coat the exterior of your home and bring it new life with some sprucing up.
