"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."

"They were 1 of the 2 companies suggested. Reached out to both and only S&C responded. The young man called back with in a few hours, came to the house, gave us a estimate. We thought that was a fair price and hired him on the spot. This young man did a wonderful job, gave us the backyard we loved and it only took him 2 days to clear a severly over grown yard and to clean up a large tree that fell. He worked by himself, in the heat and never complained. He was always pleasant, smiling and very courteous. I would hire this young man again as he has a great work Ethics. On a scale of 1 to 10 ,he rates a 20 in my book. Will refer him to family and friends with no hesitation."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Palm trees are relatively easy to grow, especially when planting different varieties in their native habitats. While regular watering is crucial in the first couple of months while the palm develops a strong root ball, palms typically require minimal maintenance once they’re established. You’ll need to prune palm fronds once or twice per year to keep it in tip-top shape.

Plant privet hedges at least 1 foot apart in a trench about 2 feet wide and 2 feet deep. It’s important to space privet hedges relatively far apart due to how quickly they grow to significant sizes and heights. You don’t want to crowd privet plants, or they could overcrowd each other, causing unwanted damage.

Professional lakefront landscaping addresses environmental factors such as water level fluctuations, erosion control, and native plant suitability. Regular maintenance includes pruning, fertilization, and ensuring drainage systems function well.

Pavers are one of the most affordable methods of creating an elevated outdoor space. Gravel is an equally affordable alternative. If your budget permits, you can look into building a permeable driveway to ensure proper drainage. Grid pavers, pervious concrete, brick, and brick pavement are all effective materials. Permeable driveways are great options, especially if you live in an area with heavy rainstorms.
