Q: How much will 4 yards of dirt cover?

• <div><p>How much 4 yards of dirt will cover depends on how deep you want the soil to be. In general, a yard of dirt will cover 324 square feet for a 1-inch depth or 100 square feet for a 3-inch depth. Therefore, you can expect 4 yards to cover between 400 and 1,296 square feet if you keep your soil depth between 1 and 3 inches.</p></div>

Q: How do you landscape a steep slope on a budget?

• <div><p>Many ways to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tips-landscaping-your-lawn-budget.htm">landscape a steep slope on a budget</a> 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. </p></div>

Q: What are the best types of rocks for landscaping?

• <div><p>Different landscaping projects call for different <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-landscaping-rocks.htm">types of landscaping rocks</a>. Pea gravel and crushed gravel are often used to cover large areas, while flagstone and cobblestone can be found in patios and walkways. If you&rsquo;re looking to build a stone wall, fieldstone or small boulders are up to the task, and larger boulders work well to indicate boundaries or fill up empty space.</p></div>

Q: Can you landscape in the rain?

• <div><p>Yes, you can landscape in the rain, but you should take some precautions to keep yourself and your tools safe. Avoid using electric landscaping tools during rainfall, and don&rsquo;t mow, thatch, aerate, or rake in the rain, as your tools can more easily tear out roots in the loose soil. Be careful when working on wet grass, and take your time to avoid slipping. Avoid putting in new plants before a particularly bad storm, as heavy rain and strong winds can damage or uproot plants that aren&rsquo;t yet established.</p></div>

Q: What landscaping projects have the highest ROI?

• <div><p>Landscaping projects with high returns on investment include adding decks and patios, installing walkways, adding irrigation or outdoor lighting systems, and building outdoor kitchens. Even general landscape maintenance can be a good investment&mdash;a well-maintained lawn boosts your home&rsquo;s curb appeal and can add value when it comes time to sell.</p></div>

I paid deposit of 1180.00 4/13/2022 and still no sod or calls or updates unless I call them. Still waiting for my landscaping. 2 months no service. Lowsy excuses. I was owner of large landscape chemical lawn company years ago and never treated my customers like this. Ridiculous. Worst company...

We tried them for three years, and each year the particular crew that serviced our landscaping needs kept getting more and more lax on completing a quality job. Finally, we dropped them, and didn't realize what we were missing in good yard-keeping until our current yard crew began doing what we...

I am very unhappy with the cleaning process of the project. When I called them they where rude, they indicated where not a landscape company and would not hire them. I had to pay a company separate to come out to clean up the mess. Customer still has to pay for dirt removal left from the job.

Rick and his team did a great job. Completed on time and left the area clean. Excellent work at a great price. Back yard was cleared and re-seeded. The team also rebuilt the landscape problem involving fence and retainer walls. Will diffidently hire again.

I found BJ's Lawn & Landscaping on Angie's List recently and gave them a call yesterday. James came by my home and quoted a price for the work that needed to be done. He and his crew returned early this morning and revived my tired, overgrown lawn. Everything looked fantastic! Thank you!

Their customer service is wonderful. I have known them for a long time; I have done business with them for 20 years. I will definitely continue to use Culpepper Nursery and Landscape.
