"There were two HUGE (one was three trees grown together- we are talking Tree of Life from Animal Kingdom) trees right between my house and the neighbors- one that had a tree sized branch split off and balanced on other branches. Lopez fit me in for a quote quickly. After obtaining several quotes I went with Lopez. They scheduled my work quickly and showed up promptly on day of treegate 2020. The gentlemen were respectful and careful about the properties. There were 2 houses, a garage, a 9 foot hedge, and a fence around the trees to be removed and the work was wonderful. They were very careful and it was amazing to watch! They had to maneuver around all those obstacles to remove the trees. They also shaped and crowned several other large trees in my yard on the same day. They were finished with all of that work by 5:30 pm and left my yard and the neighbors in great condition with all debris removed and raked. I will be using this company again for any and all landscaping or tree work I need in the future!"

"We had an area of our lawn that despite care and irrigation would not reliably and uniformly grow grass. We hired M&L Landscaping to take out whatever was left of the old lawn and replace it with new sod. They did the work last fall and now with the spring this year it looks OUTSTANDING and is growing fast. The M&L team did a great job and we are very happy with both the results and their commitment to us in the future. A first class job done by highly knowledgeable professionals. We will contract with them again in the future for other landscaping projects."

"Dan of Littleton Earthworks just wrapped up Phase 2 of a huge landscaping project at my home. After 25 years of living here, everything was overgrown, worn out and basically in need of a major overhaul. I dreamed of a refreshing, energizing and clean outdoor palette of beauty that would capture each of our four seasons’ dimensions. Dream is now reality. This phase included tree removal & pruning, stone wall rebuild, patio and walkway installation, irrigation system, over 15,000 sq feet of sod grass, way too many new plantings for me to count, and landscape lighting. To say the final outcome is gorgeous and beyond my expectations is an understatement. Everything was beautifully designed and executed, and WITHIN BUDGET! What sets Dan apart is his attention to the tiniest of details. He doesn’t just create a beautiful outdoor living space, he attends to all the unseen details that ensure this new space will function properly and perfectly while we sit back and enjoy the gorgeous new views. His enthusiasm as he executes the plan is so refreshing. And, he takes ownership of all the people needed to get the job done; with my own demanding job, that was a huge win for me. Lastly, the extremely detailed cost estimate Dan provides for each project, and then the actual final invoice is something I have never been provided from any other service provider. Each line item is tracked to arrive at the final cost, showing exactly where the project was under- on- or over-estimate. There is one phase remaining in my major yard overhaul. I look forward to working with Dan in 2019 to complete the 360-renovation. Without exception or the slightest of reservation, I highly recommend Dan of Littleton Earthworks. Thank you, Littleton Earthworks!"

"Diego told me last November he would be here at the beginning of this season and he kept his word. He designed a walkway and veneer for the front of my house that I could not have imagined. The landscaping ideas and suggestions were right on target. His team is respectful and hard working and I recommend them highly. The job exceeded my expectations!"

"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]"

"Rich and his employee did a great job on cleaning up an area in our backyard, removing tree branches, leaves and pine needles. Rich is very easy to communicate with and offers a great price for the services offered. This was my first time hiring a landscaper and if we have any projects in the future, we will be reaching out to Rich and his team! Thank you for helping us, Rich!"

"Our yard was completely covered with vines and other plant growth. The team from 3 Seasons Landscaping came in and within 4 hours we had our home back, our shed, we could walk down our stairs again. They did a fantastic job. Kudos to each one of them. It's now at a stage where we can manage and maintain it. Thanks so much."

"After Grasshopper Irrigation turned on our watering system earlier this year, we had some sod laid and I noticed that it appeared that some jet6s were not covering needed areas on our lawn. I scheduled a visit to fix the problems. The customer rep (David) spent time with me watching how each watering jet was working and he identified several issues and then fixed them all. David was very knowledgeable and we ran tests of all jets when he finished his work. Very pleased with his servicing our watering system."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can put topsoil over sand to encourage grass growth. The topsoil will help to improve water retention and promote grass roots’ development, making it a recommended step of the seeding process. Adding a layer of topsoil will provide additional nutrients to the sandy soil, helping the grass grow and remain healthy through many seasons.

The soil around your foundation should slope down and away from your home, not toward it. If the grading drops the farther you are from your home, you can enhance the slope by removing more soil. Mark off a few feet from your house and dig up some of this soil. Regrading around your fountain should encourage water to flow away from your home and not collect or “pond.”

Multiple rules of thumb exist when discussing tree planting. When planting a tree, the best rule of thumb is to provide it with everything it needs to survive and thrive in its new environment. That may mean learning about the type of tree you're planting and studying the best methods of taking care of it before purchasing and planting. 

Xeriscaped lawns are far more varied than many gardeners initially assume. The often-pictured rocky and cacti-filled landscapes are just one option. Many wildflower-, herb-, and mulch-covered landscapes follow the same principles without straying too far from the lush and colorful landscapes we have come to know. In fact, there are numerous xeriscape ideas for customizing an energy-efficient lawn to your liking.

There are two main times of year to apply mulch: mid to late spring and late fall. Spreading mulch in mid to late spring helps protect new seedlings as the soil warms up. It's best to wait until temperatures are steady, as mulching too early in the spring can slow down the soil's warming process and hinder plant growth. Fall mulching is also beneficial, as it insulates the soil and helps regulate its temperature when the first frosts arrive.
