"I tried Sod for my yard twice but my German Shepard killed it. I figured I give this a try and it has been two weeks so far and I feel it is one of the best things I have done. Yard looks great and the crew that put it in did an awesome job. They did a lot of work to level out the yard and to secure the turf down. Anyone is welcome to come and check this out in Lowell Ma. Just email me at [email protected]"

"They arrived earlier than expected, which was great, I had several limbs hanging over the wires coming to my house. It was a walnut tree, so the limbs were loaded down with walnuts. They did a great job. They even cleaned out my front gutter. I would highly recommend Noel and his company. In fact, I probably will hire them again."

"Valley Excavating demonstrated immense patience as we hemmed and hawed and deliberated over many months about how to refinish our driveway. Once we decided they were on the job. They were in and out promptly, did excellent work, and were a pleasure to deal with."

"I hired this company to mow a newly seeded, lawn that had grown to various different lengths. I also needed some weed whacking done on a difficult stonewall. They came the very next morning and did a highly professional job. Everything was trimmed, dead leaves from a dogwood tree that scattered the lawn and driveway were all picked up, even a pile of weeds that I had made previously. They are fast, efficient, polite, and very reasonable in price. I highly recommend them."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

The duration of a lakefront landscaping project is determined by its scope, environmental conditions, and weather impacts. It often takes several weeks to a few months to complete.

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.

Finding a reputable greenhouse or nursery should start online, where you can read through customer reviews to gauge the quality of the plants sold and the customer experience. Look out for customers complaining about plants dying shortly after purchase, and try to choose a greenhouse known for hiring employees who are able to explain how to care for the plants you purchase. It’s also a good idea to head to a few greenhouses to see the selection they offer and make sure they carry the plants or trees you’re looking for.

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.

During the fall, you’re likely to see foliage in stunning shades of orange, red, yellow, and brown. These colors emerge because of a seasonal decline in the pigment chlorophyll that makes leaves green.
