"Questen and crew did several landscaping projects for us and also some home siding spray cleaning. Landscaping included dirt work and retention timbers - replacing large weeded area with rock - very happy with results! In summary: great work, communication and prices - highly recommended!"

"We had a hard time finding a lawn mowing company. Our gated yard, although not large, would not fit a riding mower, and companies were reluctant. The work was done on our schedule, and the lawn was throughly cut and trimmed."

"When my yard is mowed it is completed in less than 10 min traditionally. The boys who complete it have little attention to detail and leave areas surrounding bushes untrimmed. The administration side of things has not gone much better. I typically pay a couple of months at a time in advance. When doing this I have to call to make sure the money gets applied to my account and often time one or two dates get skipped which then requires an additional phone call to correct. Thus the rating of *just okay* versus a five-star rating."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.

The best time to plant a privet hedge is autumn, ideally October or early November. Fall is the best time to plant privet hedges because young plants need plenty of water to jump-start their growth, and it typically rains more during this season. However, you can also successfully plant privets in the spring.

Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don’t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.

Xeriscaped lawns are far more varied than many gardeners initially assume. The often-pictured rocky and cacti-filled landscapes are just one option. Many wildflower-, herb-, and mulch-covered landscapes follow the same principles without straying too far from the lush and colorful landscapes we have come to know. In fact, there are numerous xeriscape ideas for customizing an energy-efficient lawn to your liking.

As long as you’re building a greenhouse, consider the overall look of your backyard. Could it benefit from stone walkways or grading? As long as you’re hiring a hardscaping pro to lay the foundation for a greenhouse, you could tackle those other projects to give your whole yard a glow-up at the same time.
