I called several providers that could seal a crawlspace seepage problem.  Brian Flanagan provided the quote for CrawlspaceSolutions after inspecting the cement floor crawlspace and walking around the house inspecting landscape drainage. I ended up with two acceptable quotes. Crawlspace Solutions was  significantly less expensive and offered more actual benefit in the combined indoor and outdoor work.

He offered several options for proceeding. At my request Brian broke out the options in his quote for:
1. Only crack injection sealing and interior drain tiling with sump pit and pump
2. Only exterior drainage correction
3. Combined if all work is to done at one time.
He also provided options for a battery back up system for the sump pump and for pouring a new floor. An additional discount was offered if work could begin on Wednesday or Thursday the following week.  I accepted all options.

The Crew arrived punctually on the Thursday and covered all floors for foot traffic, broke out the perimeter concrete, trenched and installed the tile, pit, pump, overlayed a new smooth finished floor and removed the sod, trenched, graveled, installed the external French drains to clear standing water and replaced the sod slightly raised to accommodate settling. They cleaned up all but a few smudges that were easily wiped away and were gone at the end of the day.  Brian came on Friday to check the job. My only concern was that new cement touched the bottom of the furnace ducting in one place.  They were to return the following Tuesday to install the battery backup pump, so he said the crew would come back then to cut, chip out, frame and re -cement to increase the clearance to the furnace and install a connection from the furnace depression to the drain tile. He also suggested that they would add another French drain outside and extend one installed the previous Thursday at no additional cost.

The crew arrived again on Tuesday and accomplished all of the assignments.  Brian and the crew were very easy to work with and were genuinely dedicated to making sure that they were professionally proud of and that I was pleased with the work.  I am extremely pleased with the outcome.  The warranty is for life and transferable to a new owner."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best type of rock for landscaping depends on your specific project and needs, as different rocks are suited for different applications. For covering large areas or creating an affordable driveway, consider gravel, but note that it can wash away in flowing water. For water features, river rocks are a good option. Flagstone and cobblestone are ideal for aesthetically pleasing patios and walkways. If you are building a stone wall, fieldstone or small boulders are up to the task. Large boulders and landscape rocks work well as statement pieces, to fill empty space, or to indicate boundaries, but be mindful that they can overwhelm smaller gardens. The best approach is to first define your landscaping project and then select the rock type that best fits that purpose.

Multiple rules of thumb exist when discussing tree planting. When planting a tree, the best rule of thumb is to provide it with everything it needs to survive and thrive in its new environment. That may mean learning about the type of tree you're planting and studying the best methods of taking care of it before purchasing and planting. 

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.

Finding a reputable greenhouse or nursery should start online, where you can read through customer reviews to gauge the quality of the plants sold and the customer experience. Look out for customers complaining about plants dying shortly after purchase, and try to choose a greenhouse known for hiring employees who are able to explain how to care for the plants you purchase. It’s also a good idea to head to a few greenhouses to see the selection they offer and make sure they carry the plants or trees you’re looking for.

The truth is, there really is no such thing as a 100% deer-proof plant. Deer will decimate even the prickliest flora if they’re hungry enough. However, there are plenty of beautiful plants that deer don’t necessarily enjoy. These include thistles, wisteria vines, sword ferns, and beautyberries.

Deer are herbivores, and they love vegetable gardens as much as Peter Rabbit. If you don’t want to fence in your entire property, consider creating an attractive raised-bed veggie garden with mesh fencing around it to keep out deer and other critters.
