"My very old farmhouse was definitely showing its age! The west foundation wall was caving in and there was water in the basement. Repairs were needed immediately. Hitman Solutions and Dell Phillips came to my rescue! Their solution to the problem was creative and effective. Unfortunately I was out of town caring for my sister during the repairs. So Dell sent me photos and updates daily. What a wonderful group to work with! I have nothing but praise for Dell and Hitman Solutions! Linda Morris"

"Brandon came out to evaluate the project. I had 30 piles of asphalt millings that I wanted spread over my driveways. We agreed on a price and he was right on time for when he said he would be back to complete the project. He stayed in constant contact with me (even though I was at work the entire time he was at my home to work) and told me exactly what was going on. He didn’t get the job done in one day like he thought but he returned first thing this morning to finish up. Words can not express the outstanding job that was done. The driveways are as smooth as babies butts and if we needed something changed, he easily adapted to our needs. I highly recommend Mulryan Excavating to anyone needing large equipment work done. A young man but raised to be polite, courteous and above all respectful. If you skip this contractor, YOU are the one missing out. A in my book."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

A scattering of leaves won’t pose a problem through the winter, but a thicker layer of leaves may not decompose before the first frost and can instead weigh down your grass and harbor mold or fungi. A thick layer of leaves also cuts off light and air that grass needs to grow. That’s why we suggest removing thick leaf layers within several days if possible. If your lawn goes dormant over the winter and snow has already caught up with you, then remove the leaves in early spring before your grass-growing season starts so your lawn can thrive.

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.

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.

Moss attaches to the ground but doesn’t have roots, so it can take four to six weeks for establishment to begin. It takes between 12 and 18 months for full coverage, and maximum thickness takes about two years. Keep your moss moist and debris-free to ensure it establishes itself well.

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.
