"Kolbie Holocker and his crew did grading and landscaping work in my backyard after it was torn up from sewer line repairs. They did exactly what I asked them to do. They leveled out the affected area, planted grass seed and put down straw. I was kept informed as to when they could do the work and they actually got to it sooner than I expected. They did a great job and I would definitely recommend the company to family and friends! Very good experience."

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."
Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include:
Acorus (Sweet flag)
Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.
Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.
Juncus effusus (Curly rush)
Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.
Surface-level tree roots might only pose a small threat, such as being a tripping hazard or obstacle when you mow your lawn. But if mature tree roots start growing in the direction of your home’s foundation or plumbing system, it could be a real problem. Cutting small tree roots out before they grow too large can keep your home safe without removing the whole tree.
Yes, it is possible to add too little mulch. Anything less than 1 inch will likely result in too little coverage around your plants, allowing weeds to grow through and minimizing the positive effects that a deeper bed of mulch would have, like maintaining proper soil moisture and insulating the ground.
The primary disadvantages of xeriscaping are the high upfront cost and the significant labor required to establish it. A xeriscaping project can cost between $3,000 and $24,000 on average. Additionally, the resulting landscape will have less of a traditional green appearance, which may not appeal to everyone's personal taste and could potentially narrow your pool of buyers if you decide to sell your home. However, despite these initial drawbacks, the long-term benefits include saving water, time, and money on lawn maintenance.
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.
