"Anthony did a good job, was very responsive to all my requests. He had to send his crew back two times because they did not check with us before leaving and there were some things left unfinished, but he sent them back and made a big effort to make sure we were happy at the end. My only small complaint is that we had to make sure the crew didn’t take shortcuts, they kept trying to get away with the minimum work and we had to keep pointing things that seemed very obvious, however, once we asked for them, they addressed them. Over all, it was a great experience and we will be going back to Anthony if we ever need help with any tree or landscaping."

"Very pleased with the result, amenable crew, delivered as promised, throughout the nerve wracking process. Our drainage control project was extensive, including building of beautiful retaining wall, reshaping steep gravel drive, buried French and connecting underground drains and garden fencing. Luke's attention to detail made this project shine!"

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.

Consulting your local university extension, Audubon society, or municipal urban forestry program are all good ideas when choosing a tree to plant. You can also ask an arborist or a knowledgeable landscaping company for advice on good trees to plant.

Yes, you can hydroseed with a garden hose, but you’ll need a tank or other large vessel for mixing the slurry, then a pump to send the slurry through the hose for spraying. Making your own hydroseeding unit can work, but it’s not usually worth the effort and supplies unless you already have them.

There are many benefits to raised garden beds. It’s easier to control weeds and enrich the soil. The truth is, most top soil isn’t suitable for growing veggies, and you’ll need to make adjustments. It’s easier to adjust a controlled space than a large area.

Since you’ll likely be digging a trench to install your yard drainage system, this is a good time to complete other tasks that involve digging up your yard, including: Sprinkler system installation Lawn reseeding Regrading your yard Redesigning your landscaping If your drain is under a walkway or driveway, your contractor must also remove those materials. This is a great time to consider upgrading your hardscaping features, especially if they’re nearing the end of their life span.
