"We appreciated J Plus Landscaping because they called us right away, came right away to give an estimate, and then provided prompt and very good quality tree service. They were thorough and trustworthy. We even recommended them to our neighbors, who also hired them and were very satisfied. We are so glad that HomeAdvisor referred to this great tree company to us. We would most definitely use them again!"

"My son recommended Steve/NuView back in the spring when a section of my yard was flooding from a neighbor’s sump pump discharge. He installed a French drain and shrubs to help with the excess rain water. He was very professional, thorough and completed my project on time. He has also kept in touch this summer to make sure the drain is still operating correctly. One of the best decisions I’ve made since moving to Tinley Park. Totally recommend Steve and NuView."

"Great service and communication throughout the service. We had a hefty clean out of a house and they did an amazing job. We also had them cut the lawn and that was even 5 star. We will definitely keep them in mind for future projects."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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. 

There are some instances when you can use extra drywall in your garden. Ideally, unused scraps of new drywall are best for amending soil without the concern of additional chemicals or mold. However, drywall with paint, mold, or potential asbestos requires specialized disposal by a professional and should be kept out of your garden.

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.

There are two main times of year to apply mulch: mid to late spring and late fall. Spreading mulch in mid to late spring helps protect new seedlings as the soil warms up. It's best to wait until temperatures are steady, as mulching too early in the spring can slow down the soil's warming process and hinder plant growth. Fall mulching is also beneficial, as it insulates the soil and helps regulate its temperature when the first frosts arrive.

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.
