"Mitch, together with his brother, Frank and their crew finished the installation of my 10-lights outdoor lighting within 3 hours under the rain this morning. OLP did an excellent job in providing light & life in the front of my house! But we're not done yet because I would definitely hire them again soon to do the landscape lighting at the back as well as on the side of my house! Outdoor Lighting Perspectives is simply the BEST in the outdoor lighting business! Thank you Mitch, Frank, & crew!"
I love my job!

"We had our landscape edging installed a couple weeks ago. Dan & Pia did an incredible job helping us prep and plan the design and color options. They are very friendly, responsive with communication, professional, scheduled our job quickly, and have very fair pricing. We are highly satisfied with the completed job and would definitely recommend to others and use again in the future."

"Out of three bidders, I chose Canter Stump Solutions to remove a tree in my yard. It wasnâ t because David was the low bidder; it was because he was prompt, honest and timely in the removal of the tree. Thank you, David for saving the day!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The average cost for landscaping is around $3,500, but prices can range from as low as $200 for simple DIY projects to $14,000 or more for extensive work. Several factors influence the final price, including your geographic location, yard size, project scope, chosen materials, site preparation, and the type of landscaping involved. Professional landscaper labor costs typically range from $50 to $100 per hour.

For a smaller budget, you can focus on softscaping projects like adding mulch, flowers, and shrubs, which might only cost a few hundred dollars if you do the work yourself. A budget of around $5,000 could cover projects like a simple patio, new plants and tree trimming, or a water feature. More extensive hardscaping projects, such as pergolas, patios, and walkways, can push the budget to $14,000 or more. For example, a flower bed installation averages between $800 and $3,000, while landscape lighting installation can cost from $2,000 to $6,000.

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.

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.

It is for the purpose of protecting them from hail because you’ll be removing it soon after the threat is over. However, plastic or vinyl tarps aren’t recommended as a long-term way of protecting your plants from frost because they’ll trap too much moisture inside, which is actually not a good thing for your plants. But in the short term, it’s fine to use even an overturned garbage can to protect a plant from hail.

Yes, weeds can still grow in decomposed granite. If properly compacted, it can act as a good weed suppressant, meaning you’ll only pull weeds occasionally. But no ground cover is completely weed-proof. To further prevent weeds, you can try spraying your decomposed granite with distilled white vinegar.
