"Working with Ken was a great experience. He promptly answered my call for an estimate on a dry creek bed to meet erosion concerns in my yard. The work was done quickly and at a fair cost to my complete satisfaction. I will be calling him again for future landscape projects. Highly recommend."

"They were fabulous! I hired to clean up the backyard and build a little pond out back. In addition to the backyard, they trimmed up my bushes all around the house and placed pine straw and mulch around the property. It looked really clean and professional. I would definitely recommend these guys; super friendly and efficient :)"

"Elijah and Jack came out to do an estimate on repairs for the outdoor landscape for the house we bought about 5 months ago. They were great about explaining everything going on with our 12 year old lighting system and we made the choice to hire them for a full replacement (to the new low voltage LED). Elijah called ahead on the day of installation to say they were on the way. Once they arrived they went over the details with me and then went to get supplies. I was actually suffering from a virus that day and was in the bed and they texted me to find out if I needed anything while they were out. They did a fantastic job for us. They are great with communication and bring prompt. I would highly recommend them!"

"Virgil and his employees took over a project another vendor had completed and turned a negative experience into an exceptional project and experience for me. I wished I would have hired Virgil from the beginning. He was professional, trustworthy, reliable, and all I could have hoped for, as I was trying to manage the project from out of state. Virgil took this responsibility off of my plate and even secured the permits needed for the project, going over and above my expectations and exhibiting exceptional customer service. Virgil cleared land for my site, leveled ground, placed a mobile home, secured a mobile home, created drainage on the lot, and placed the home on the lot appropriately, to preserve the existing trees as much as possible. He also laid gravel for the driveway and completed all plumbing for the property. I give Virgil and his business my highest recommendation, as Virgil is trustworthy, dependable, and an all-around exceptional person to do business with. The value of the services he provided was exceptional in every way. Tom March 2023"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

As with anything you do near your foundation, you’ll want to ensure proper drainage when you plant your foundation beds. Your drainage should run downhill from the highest point against your foundation to avoid water intrusion and incurring expensive foundation repair costs.

The most important thing to put under a rock garden is the appropriate soil. The specific soil needed will depend on the type of plants you’re growing as well as the environment you live in. You can also put non-woven or woven fabric under the rocks to add to the garden's structural stability.

Moss attaches to the ground but doesn’t have roots, so it can take four to six weeks for establishment to begin. It takes between 12 and 18 months for full coverage, and maximum thickness takes about two years. Keep your moss moist and debris-free to ensure it establishes itself well.

If you are xeriscaping a lawn from scratch, your best bet for preparing the lawn is to work with a xeriscaping specialist in your area. The most common first step to making the transformation, however, will be to remove the turfgrass from your lawn. The subsequent steps will often include amending the soil to support new plants and installing low-drip or drip irrigation systems.

A scattering of leaves won’t pose a problem through the winter, but a thicker layer of leaves may not decompose before the first frost and can instead weigh down your grass and harbor mold or fungi. A thick layer of leaves also cuts off light and air that grass needs to grow. That’s why we suggest removing thick leaf layers within several days if possible. If your lawn goes dormant over the winter and snow has already caught up with you, then remove the leaves in early spring before your grass-growing season starts so your lawn can thrive.
