"Will is extremely knowledgeable and able to explain in detail to a layman the design as well as the reasoning behind it. We had a somewhat complex driveway put in on a slope with bad water drainage and the company did an amazing job putting in the drive and re-routing the water. They did it all in two days and went above and beyond."

"I hired D & E Outside services to do yard clean up/removal. They contacted me and came to my house to give me an estimate in a very timely manner. The estimate was very reasonable. When they had scheduling difficulties they contacted me to let me know. They aren't done with the services yet but have communicated every step of the way!"

"Bernd was very responsive to our requests and was a delight to work with. He is definitely an expert on pond construction and the mechanics needed to have a functional, safe, and attractive water feature on your property. He is an expert on fish health and water quality. Highly recommend!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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

If you live in an area with heavy rain or you like the idea of an extra layer of cushion under your feet, you may want to consider adding additional layers under your grass. There are pads that are purely for comfort and ones that can help accelerate drainage for those heavy rains.

While you can leave roots in the ground, if you don’t want the shrub to regrow again over time, it’s best not to leave any roots behind. Ensure you remove as much of the shrub as possible, including the root ball and any main roots you can see, to prevent new growth. Some gardeners opt for using a chemical treatment to prevent the stump from growing back, but this can kill beneficial microorganisms living in your soil.

The best time to plant is between spring and autumn. Springtime weather is typically mild and is when nurseries start to bloom. When the summer weather arrives and it’s hot out, it’s best to avoid planting bare-root plants, but you can still plant many in-container varieties. The first sign of fall is another great opportunity to plant biennials if you live in southern states, or a lovely vegetable garden up north.

During the fall, you’re likely to see foliage in stunning shades of orange, red, yellow, and brown. These colors emerge because of a seasonal decline in the pigment chlorophyll that makes leaves green.
