"Harvey and his team did an excellent job installing new landscaping in my front yard. They were prompt and professional. I liked the quality of their work and hired them again to install sod in the back yard as well as the side of my house. I plan on using Harvey’s services again this upcoming spring season."

"So great! They were so fast and so cheap! Our dog had dug up parts of our back yard and we even had a tree stump. Now looks amazing. We now spend more time in the backyard in 1 week than we have the 3 years prior COMBINED"

"Juan and Jose worked with us a few years ago. Once we bought our new home they were the first on our list to call for landscaping needs. They installed new entryway, spring clean up etc. As always, they were professional, good communication, flexible and punctual. The finished product was the envy of my neighborhood. If you are looking for reliable, hard working, professional and flexible landscapers Juan and Jose are the ones to call. At this point they are like family. They are currently providing landscaping services for me biweekly. My lawn is looking great! Thank you and the crew for an amazing walkway and entry way."

"Try JK Company. I obtained 5 estimates from different companies, and JK provided the most competitive quote for the job I needed (instead of unnecessary extra up-sales). I hadnâ t used them before, so I was more than impressed with their communication, timeliness, professionalism and quality of work. They know what theyâ re doing and involve you in all decisions. They fixed a botched job by a landscaper who said he knew how to work with paver patios, but didnâ t have experience or expertise. Tinoâ s crew built a beautiful patio with fireplace by leveraging existing walls, shape and color of the house, and length of the back yard. This is the first time Iâ ve taken time to write a review for anyone, and Iâ m doing it because of how impressed I was with Tino, Kelsey and their crew. Theyâ re worth the try!"

"J.E.M Landscaping did an incredible job on my front and back yard for the final cut and clean-up before winter. Everything looks so neat and refreshed! The lawn is perfectly trimmed, the edges are sharp, and they made sure all the leaves and debris were completely cleared out. They were professional, efficient, and clearly take pride in their work. It feels great heading into winter knowing my yard is in such great shape. I highly recommend J.E.M Landscaping to anyone looking for dependable, high-quality landscaping services!"

"We had and continue to maintain a terrific business relationship with Steve regarding our outdoor lighting. From converting all of our halogens to LEDs to multi colored remote controlled spotlights , custom modifications & replacements of broken fixtures it was all done in a stellar, professional and friendly manner. This was no small project on a 2 acre property with over 50 outdoor fixtures and new lighting fixtures were added as well. It s rare to have a contractor genuinely listen to your specific requirements without trying to upsell a homeowner. When we asked for ideas on the latest outdoor light options he then advised us and also researched our more atypical architectural requirements & responded back to us in a timely manner with his findings. We never had to worry that he wouldn t follow up. He diligently worked on our property as if it was his own house. Just a few words that describe Steve: professional, on time appointments, great follow ups & overall communications, realistic project timetable, honest, sincere, caring, knowledgeable and a good value including an excellent warranty. Steve even assisted us with other trade contractors that we inquired about & eventually hired too. His input was invaluable for those referrals. We hired Steve at our first project meeting and definitely made the right choice in a field of many outdoor lighting companies including large businesses."

"Can't say enough good things about Am National. We installed our in ground system over 12 years ago and it is still going strong! Am National has been wonderful to work with. I recommended them to my neighbor last year and she also raves about the service and product. Overall the team is professional and communicative. When they open the system the foreman always lets me know the status of all the sprinkler heads and shows me any problems. He then discusses options and performs whatever work needs to be done. The workers set your system to where you had set last year and work with you if you need any changes. Workers do enter your home to open and close the system but always wear booties and never leave any kind of mess or anything behind. I did have an issue once with a line leaking underground due to a tree removal and the company sent someone out right away to evaluate. It turned out there was no leak. They were very thorough and explained everything."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, adding a pergola can add value to your home and provides an excellent selling point for potential buyers who enjoy outdoor living. Pergolas may have a 50% to 80% return on investment. To add more value, choose a structure made from durable, long-lasting materials and have it professionally installed. Extra features like a motorized roof, smart louvers, and heaters or misters may also give you a better return on investment.

The condition and appearance of your yard can affect your home appraisal value. A well-maintained, attractive yard with curb appeal adds to a property’s value, while an overgrown, messy, poorly maintained yard can hurt your home’s appraisal. Even small cosmetic improvements to your yard, like adding mulch, trimming trees, and cleaning out plant beds, can help your appraisal value.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

You may need to lay sod on the areas you dug up once you get the okay from the contractor. It will take about 30 to 45 days for the sod to take root. Consult a local sod installer to get an accurate estimate of the timeline of your specific yard-enhancement project.

Landscape design can be a simple service that includes a drawing or visual representation of how your yard can be set up and optimized for your intended purposes. But it can also include all of the manual labor to make your vision a reality. When you speak with your landscape designer, ensure everyone understands the specific services you want. Some add-on services may include the following:

  • Sourcing and delivery of raw materials

  • Professional installation of features, including pergolas, decks, and pathways

  • Drainage system design

  • Recommendations for specific plants and trees
