"Even after spending hours out on the lawn and accomplishing very little with an overgrown yard, we called Elite landscaping. They showed up and put in a work! One guy mowed and one weed wacked. After they left I was so impressed by what they could do, I FaceTimed buddies to show them the great work. Before they showed up and after I took a turn knocking down the weeds they were still pretty high and it didnâ t look too good. However, after Elite landscaping came the weeds were gone - completely. Everywhere was cleaned up after and they took dead leaves and flowers too. 10/10"

"Tyrone was punctual, professional, and determined. Tyrone has an eye for detail and he manicured my yard beautifully. The cost of the job was fair and affordable. When I need yard work done again, I will not hesitate to call Tyrone and his crew! Thank you very much for showing up when I needed help."

"Khalil responded promptly by phone, made an in-person visit the same day to assess the project, spent considerable time making that assessment, and made a competitive bid within a day. He performed the job a few days later, and his work was excellent. I wholeheartedly recommend him."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.

The best way to landscape your front yard on a budget is to invest in hiring a professional for hardscaping—things like upgrading walkways, redoing driveways, and installing partitions around garden beds. You can often do the softscaping yourself—think laying down mulch, caring for your lawn, removing weeds, and planting flowers and shrubs. It’s also almost always worthwhile to pay a professional for routine yard maintenance, as this dramatically improves curb appeal and delivers above 100% ROI in most cases.

The landscaping elements that add the most value are often the basics. A well-maintained, attractive lawn can have a return on investment (ROI) of up to 217%. Routine lawn maintenance, such as edging and mulching, can provide an ROI of over 100%. Other high-value projects include upgrading your front walkway, which can offer a 100% ROI, and planting trees. Projects like adding decks, patios, outdoor lighting, irrigation systems, fire pits, and outdoor kitchens also add value and enjoyment, though their direct financial ROI may be less than 100% in some cases.

You may need to lay sod on the areas you dug up once you get the okay from the contractor. It will take about 30 to 45 days for the sod to take root. Consult a local sod installer to get an accurate estimate of the timeline of your specific yard-enhancement project.
