"Anthony and his crew did an incredible job taking down a huge and dangerous dead tree on our property. The entire experience working with their team was first class. Everything was done very professionally from start to finish. Invoicing, scheduling and execution of the project was flawless. They offer a wide variety of services at fair prices. I would highly recommend them for any tree service or lawn/landscaping needs. I worked in the home services industry for nearly 10 years and Anthony's business is doing things the right way! Great job guys!"

"These guys are great! I had a birthday party coming up at the end up the month and really wanted my lights done by then. Jake and Ronnie were so understanding of my timeline and were in constant communication throughout the whole process. Will definitely be using them for my lighting going forward!"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

The best way to landscape your front yard on a budget is to invest in hiring a professional for hardscaping—things like upgrading walkways, redoing driveways, and installing partitions around garden beds. You can often do the softscaping yourself—think laying down mulch, caring for your lawn, removing weeds, and planting flowers and shrubs. It’s also almost always worthwhile to pay a professional for routine yard maintenance, as this dramatically improves curb appeal and delivers above 100% ROI in most cases.

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.

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.

Other projects that you can do at the same time as your trellis include painting the deck , installing a pergola, or adding mulch to your garden beds.

Yes, such as sod installation and erosion control for comprehensive site improvement.
