"Trysen is very knowledgeable; he came out and gave us a free quote for my 1/2 acre project. His team worked flawlessly to get the cinder soil down and level, and applying the hydroseed for the lawn. His team made sure to protect my driveway from the heavy trucks on delivery of the soil and afterward cleaning up driveway and surrounding areas. Elite Landscaping has great customer service (Kimrah!) and are very attentive to our questions and needs. I would highly recommend Elite for all landscaping needs. P.S. 9 days from hydroseeding and the grass is sprouting…! 👍🏼"

"What a great experience. My yard was a massive project. 5 acres of borderline jungle and grass that was 8 feet high. Tyrone and his team got this done in 2 days. He responded immediately to my Inquiry and was able to get me on the schedule quickly and at a reasonable price, considering the scale if the project. I plan on using him again as a develop my land."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Costs for lakefront landscaping are influenced by project size, choice of plants and materials, labor, and any additional features or structures desired. Projects can range from a few thousand dollars to extensive transformations costing much more.

While both fall and spring are suitable times of the year for planting trees, fall is typically the better option. Soil stays warm long enough to allow tree roots to establish in fall before they go dormant, while spring might give way to intense summer heat before spring-planted trees have time to grow strong roots.

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.

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.

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.
