"He did a really good job and I was very happy with his work.  He was on time and very professional.  I would highly recommend him to others and will probably have him back out to clean up my yard again next spring."

"Corice did an amazing job. I needed some weeds knocked down, some mowing, and trees cleared from fence line. I called him on the 12th of August, and he came out the same day and gave me a quote. The next day he came out and performed the work. I was expecting a crew, but he came and did everything solo. Something came up, so he wasn't able to come first thing in the morning like we arranged, but communicated that the night before. He had great communication, letting me know when he was on his way. He was very pleasant in all our dealings. I have already lined him up to do some more work for me. I would definitely recommend him to anybody looking to have work done."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

However, cutting and maintaining these types of shapes is much more challenging. There are metal frames that you can purchase to place around the hedge to make it much easier.

Many people have used old tires in gardens as raised beds, planters, tree rings, and DIY decor. However, these uses are not recommended due to the toxicity of many of the chemicals used to manufacture tires. These chemicals can leach into the soil and water as the tire breaks down, creating environmental pollution and health hazards for gardeners and their families.

There are several reasons your grass may be dying that could be in or out of your control. The most common issues include poor drainage, under/overwatering, poor soil pH, low soil nutrients, low sunlight, or too much foot traffic.

Many ways to landscape a steep slope on a budget exist. Avoiding expensive retaining wall construction is the first step. Consider creating a rocky slope with boulders or large stones, or think about planting perennials that return every year with a single investment. Transplanting small trees from elsewhere on your property is also possible and can help to stabilize steep slopes without purchasing new ones.
