"We have hired Aerate 1 several times and have always been thrilled with their work. They planted a tree and provided pruning after the tree matured. They surrounded our above ground pool with drainage covered by pea gravel inside brick, and installed a paver walkway to the pool's heater. They landscaped the front and side with mulch inside brick. Every time they do work they make the site look better than when they arrived, even in areas only slightly impacted by their work. I highly recommend their company due to their excellent work and commitment to keeping their promises about when and what will be done!"

"The team of four workers with the owner showed up right on time 8:30 am and started work. I had an errand at 7:00am ,so we communicated by text/email and mobile that the could start before I got back this morning. They were already done with the edging, weeding and removal of sod in the new bed along the fence. Since we have rows of Daffodils planted, they carefully removed sod and weeded around about 100 Tulips and daffodils. (It was amazing). They power raked, aerated and completely cleaned up my yard and put in very high quality Mulch that looks fantastic. It is a family business and the whole operation was very efficient and they cleaned up nicely before leaving. With the current shortage of labor, I had been trying for weeks to get a landscaper to return a call. Four Brothers are a great outfit and I plan to bring them out in the fall to remove a tree and install some more bushes. I strongly recommend them."

"Would be tough to find another company that works so hard with great pricing and top notch work. They installed a paver patio with a tv wall with a fire pit and sitting wall. They also added in a walkway with landscaping and sodded the rest of the yard. Their work is phenomenal! I can’t say enough about the crew but they put their all into your project to make sure you’re very happy!"

"Indie and his crew did an excellent job with spring clean up, aerating, detaching and edging of our flowers beds. He also installed a backyard drain for us two years ago. He is always professional and shows up when he says he is going to. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a landscaper."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

The best time to plant a tree is in the spring, so the roots have time to grow into the surrounding soil before winter sets in. Some people recommend planting in the late fall. However, planting in the spring reduces the stress on the tree, as it will be emerging from dormancy, giving it the full spring and summer ahead to acclimate and put down roots into the soil.

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.

Most experts recommend a quarter-inch layer of compost for best results, and you will need about .77 cubic yards of material per 1,000 square feet. To measure how much compost to use, take the square footage of your yard and multiply it by .77, then divide that number by 1,000.

If shade is a priority for you, then panting elm trees is a fine choice. A full mature elm tree has enough aesthetic appeal for some folks that it could add value to your home. 

That said, never plant elm trees too close to your home, sewer line, or sidewalks, as their roots can damage these, which can lead to costly repairs.

If you are xeriscaping a lawn from scratch, your best bet for preparing the lawn is to work with a xeriscaping specialist in your area. The most common first step to making the transformation, however, will be to remove the turfgrass from your lawn. The subsequent steps will often include amending the soil to support new plants and installing low-drip or drip irrigation systems.
