"Alfredo is the BEST!!! He was always on time. His design concept was perfect and he more than exceeded my expectations. He is the best landscaper I have used. I had a mess from the previous landscaper, and he fixed it all. I highly recommend him."

"Ken and his team did a great job with a landscape project I've been holding off for about a year now. I had about 150 feet of dead blue pacific junipers on the side (slope) of my house that needed to be pulled out and new ones planted, 60 junipers total. Ken also pruned my crype myrtles, japanese maple, knockout rose bushes, sea-green junipers and pampas grass - these are not shrubs planted this spring but established shrubs for over 10 years, so not small by any means . The entire project looks amazing and I would hire Ken again for my next landscape project. Excellent communication throughout the process and the guys cleaned up well."

"Chris and his team arrived on time in the A.M. - did the prep work, then laid the sod in the P.M. We found them to be very efficient, professional and definitely knowledgeable about their business. We now have one of the best looking lawns in the neighborhood. All our neighbors commented how nice the yard looks and we would highly recommend Chris. Its so nice to have grass again."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Yes, weeds can still grow in decomposed granite. If properly compacted, it can act as a good weed suppressant, meaning you’ll only pull weeds occasionally. But no ground cover is completely weed-proof. To further prevent weeds, you can try spraying your decomposed granite with distilled white vinegar.

Surface-level tree roots might only pose a small threat, such as being a tripping hazard or obstacle when you mow your lawn. But if mature tree roots start growing in the direction of your home’s foundation or plumbing system, it could be a real problem. Cutting small tree roots out before they grow too large can keep your home safe without removing the whole tree.

DIY home gardening can be relaxing, joyful, and cost-effective. From mowing your lawn to planting your own flower beds, there is a wide variety of gardening tasks that you can do yourself to make your yard look beautiful. If you’d rather spend your time not in the dirt, or if you’d like someone to take care of your plants for you, calling a professional gardening service is best. They can give you a workup of what services you’ll need and how often to schedule them.

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.

Since the nature of the landscaping project can heavily influence the overall cost, it helps to understand what different types of landscaping projects cost on average. For example:

  • Plant a tree: $100–$2,000

  • Build a retaining wall: $3,250–$9,200

  • Reseed a lawn: $450–$1,700

  • Install a water fountain: $950–$4,800

  • Install a paver patio: $2,400–$7,000

  • Install a concrete walkway: $1,200–$2,400

  • Install a flower bed: $800–$3,000

  • Landscape lighting: $2,000–$6,000
