"I contracted with Brian 7 years ago to replace the my sidewalk and the replacement sidewalk was of low quality with holes forming and cracking where the sidewalk abutted the front porch. Brian at one point responded "Unfortunately, your walkway was done with poor craftsmanship and I will front the money and fix the entire thing including the stoop for free." At some point dialogue stopped and I never heard from Brian again. I would not recommend using for a cement or sidewalk work."

Tree Trimming and Removal Stump Removal Landscape Design and Maintenance Chemical Applications Total Yard Care I got into the Tree Trimming and Landscaping Business due to the over pricing from the companies in our area. Through High School and College, I have 6 years of experience in these areas and looking to provide reasonable prices for quality work. I enjoy working outdoors and have 4 kids who are nearing the age of wanting to work as well. I have also partnered with a professsional tree climber on larger/more difficult projects to ensure the job is done right. I have up 4 adults and 4 high school kids who work for me depending on when it works for their schedules.

"Great service and communication."

The right residential landscaping can completely transform a lawn from nice to amazing. But proper landscaping can do much more than just provide aesthetic value. When done right, landscaping can elevate your home’s curb appeal, increase your home’s value, and improve the usability of your property. Residential landscaping from Land Escapes will combine natural beauty with function to create a personal sanctuary where you can relax and extend your living space into the outdoors. Land Escapes specializes in a variety of hardscaping elements, including colorful textured stamped concrete patios, retaining walls, paver patios, walkways, driveways, outdoor kitchens, courtyards, terraces, water features, benches, counters, fireplaces, pool decks, accent walls, edging, and more. Land Escapes creates creative and distinctive hardscaping designs using a variety of materials, including flagstone, cut stone, pavers, natural stone, and more. We can combine materials in different shapes, patterns, textures, and colors to create beautiful, one-of-a-kind designs that produce visual interest. Your landscape needs water to survive. But too much or too little water can be detrimental to your landscape. A residential irrigation system from Land Escapes takes the guesswork out of keeping your landscape properly watered and makes your landscape easier to maintain while keeping it lush and healthy.

"Land Escapes worked two projects for me, landscaping and grass seeding in the front yard to increase our curb appeal and then poured a textured and stained patio to the side of the house. Both turned out to be fantastic thanks to great crews and largely, the vision of the designer, Laeken Frazier. Laeken was absolutely fantastic and you should ask for her services. My family will be requesting her again in the near future to upgrade our backyard."

For 30 plus years, our lead foreman has been laying brick. We're privileged to have Randy, who built one of the very first paver driveway jobs in Kansas City before outdoor hardscape was on the map. And he taught the owner of Outlook Hardscape everything he knows. The care and craftsmanship Matt, Randy and their crews put into our hardscape has been something they've done for decades together. Our competitive price matches the quality of product you will receive as we pride ourselves in doing it right the first time. And our Angie's List members boast of our friendly crews and clean work sites. We not only want you to relax during the process but help you relax after a long day at work, coming home to your new outdoor oasis. Let us help you design beauty and comfort with our quality hardscape. We look forward to meeting you.

"Fair bid, excellent work."

"Billy work great with us, providing a unique front landscape design for our newly constructed home. He was very flexible incorporating our thoughts on our plants along with his design. He and his crew completed the landscape, rain gutter drainage pipe to keep water away from the house and did a complete lawn irrigation system using the lake water for supply. He worked jointly with us and our neighbor for some joint water drainage. We have had numerous people asking who did our landscaping as it has good curb appeal. We have Paradise open and close our irrigation system and they are now doing 5 of our neighbors too. I would highly recommend Paradise Landscape."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Turnbuckle weight loads vary depending on their size. Smaller 1/4-inch turnbuckles have a weight capacity of about 500 pounds. A 3/8-inch diameter turnbuckle, which is strong enough to handle most residential fence gates, can handle a working load of 1,200 pounds. Larger 1/2-inch diameter models have a limit of 4,000 pounds.

A concrete base—or concrete footings, more specifically—is necessary for a freestanding pergola build. A pergola is top-heavy and can’t stand on its own, so it will always need some type of base or support. If you’re attaching a pergola to a deck, the deck’s supportive joists will act as the support, so there will be no concrete base or footings necessary.

Clean regularly, treat wood for weather resistance, and inspect for damage to ensure longevity.

The best lumber for building will be the strongest and most eco-friendly wood your budget allows. That being said, Douglas fir, pine, oak, and maple are all common building materials. Contractors will use a strong, inexpensive wood to frame a house or other structure and finer woods like mahogany for detail work. 

While your municipality may have its own regulations requiring pergolas or other structures to be a certain height above a fire pit, the standard recommendation is that the pergola should be at least 10 feet above the fire pit. A taller pergola allows the heat from the flames to dissipate before reaching the structure.
