"Outstanding work! Hired Byrds to install sod in my backyard. They were professional, knowledgeable, and punctual and best of all they did a fabulous job on the sod install. They even performed a super thorough cleanup. My yard finally looks great again! I will definitely hire Byrds for my future lawn and landscape needs!"

"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."

"Patrick and Ramon are a great team that did everything and more of my work requirements. Prepared the ground, laid the sod, and instructed me on how to care for the new front yard sod. Patrick communicated clearly with me which was very helpful. I look forward to green grass as the weather warms. I would hire this team for any landscape work!"

"Panning for gold is popular in the North Georgia mountains. After sifting through some other landscaping companies in the area, we finally "found the gold" here in Cleveland with Rooted Landscape Management! Sam and Jakob did an excellent job of completely transforming our yard! They worked hard clearing, grading, and installing three beautiful toccoa Belgard block retaining walls with steps and rails, a gravel driveway/parking area, and wooden fencing for our project. They were very punctual and communicative throughout every phase of the work. We appreciate so much their precision and care for detail! They were very friendly and extremely professional! We added beautiful accent lighting to the walls from Wayne's Outdoor Lighting. We've already received numerous compliments on our project, and we couldn't be more pleased with our "new yard"! If you're looking for quality, professionalism, and value, end your search and "go for the gold" with Rooted Landscape Management!"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

In most cases, wait three to five days to repot or relocate a plant from a greenhouse or nursery. That way, your plant has time to recover from any shock during the move and adapt to the conditions in and around your home. Some hearty plants may not need as long, and delicate plants might need several weeks. You should ask the professional at your nursery for a recommended timeline. Consider asking about an initial watering schedule to help stimulate root growth and promote a healthy plant.

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

You should exercise care when deciding how to landscape over a leach field for your septic system. You typically want lightweight materials that won’t damage the drain field’s perforated pipes. When adding plants to the area, select plants with shallow roots, such as grass or flower gardens. Trees with deep roots could damage the pipes in the field.

Yes, adding a pergola can add value to your home and provides an excellent selling point for potential buyers who enjoy outdoor living. Pergolas may have a 50% to 80% return on investment. To add more value, choose a structure made from durable, long-lasting materials and have it professionally installed. Extra features like a motorized roof, smart louvers, and heaters or misters may also give you a better return on investment.

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.
