"The job was done correctly from what I can tell, but they rescheduled with me multiple times and missed appointments without calling or texting. I had to reach out to them. They didn't smooth the dirt out where they had dug in my yard, but I figured I'd just rather handle that detail. Nice guys. Work got done quick. But getting them out to my house to do the work took much too long."

"Initially I called Aleck for grass cutting at my vacant rental. Following the hurricane I had a tree partially come down in the back yard that was too much of a nuisance for other folks I called. I had called around to get quotes and timlines to have a tree company do some work. The fastest anyone could do it was 3+weeks. Aleck cut my grass, and cleaned up the fallen branches and then was able to coordinate the removal of a big tree and trimming of a second in less than 4 days! His price quotes (grass cutting and tree removal) were cheaper than anyone else I talked to, and he got it done FAST! The interaction I had with him is what I believe Angies list is all about. Aside from the work he has done, i have a new reliable handyman which is invaluable when you have a rental property and live out of state."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don’t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.

Many ways to landscape a steep slope on a budget exist. Avoiding expensive retaining wall construction is the first step. Consider creating a rocky slope with boulders or large stones, or think about planting perennials that return every year with a single investment. Transplanting small trees from elsewhere on your property is also possible and can help to stabilize steep slopes without purchasing new ones. 

The best landscaping for a septic drain field is shallow-rooted grass or native vegetation that helps prevent soil erosion while allowing water to evaporate efficiently. Avoid planting trees, shrubs, or deep-rooted plants near the drain field because the roots can infiltrate pipes and cause blockages. Using mulch or gravel sparingly can also help retain moisture and protect the system without restricting airflow.

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.

Buying plants from a nursery is one thing, but ensuring that they are properly planted is another. While you might not need to hire a landscaper for every plant that you buy from a nursery, it’s a great idea to have their expertise and experience to plant larger items, like burlapped trees or specialty plants like rose bushes. Even better, before making a trip to a nursery to buy new plants, consult a local landscaper to test your soil for pH levels, soil texture, and phosphorus and potassium levels to help determine the best plants for your area.
