"Ken was responsive to first communication, turned up on time to assess what needed to be done, garden had not been touched since beginning of November (5 months). Crew turned up at arranged time and worked solidly - cleared a lot of leaves, branches, pine needles.  Trimmed shrubs touching house and trimmed ornamental grasses. Thatched lawn and cut grass. Removed all debris and disposed thereof.  Ken and his crew will be grass cutting and doing maintenance going forward.

"After many frustrating attempts at getting a reasonable quote to remove (12) trees in my yard, I finally called the right number: Travers Landscaping. Mike Fraser called me within 5 minutes of my inquiry, promptly came to my house to evaluate the scope of work and provided me with a very fair quote. I hired him on the spot and he and his crew arrived on time and did a fantastic job in the removal and clean up. My neighbor hired him as well and I will not hesitate to call them first the next time I need work done in my yard!!"

"I recently had artificial turf installed in my back yard by Intelliturf. It looks amazing!! Because of very large trees and very little sun I could never have grass in my back yard. The turf is perfect, very easy to maintain. Jeff and his crew were professional, hardworking and always pleasant."

"The work was well done and completed in a reasonable amount of time. He cleaned up the existing bed more than I was expecting in that he removed a very large pile of debris (e.g. old branches, leaves, etc). It all looks great!"

"Patrick contacted me right away and came out to give me an estimate….on a Sunday! He carefully listened to what I was looking for, gave me a very reasonable price and we scheduled an appointment. Patrick and crew just finished up and they did a perfect job. They were meticulous, cleaning up as they went. Limelight will be our go to landscape company for our future projects. I will highly recommend them to friends and neighbors as well."

"The crew is friendly and hard-working. Job, the manager, listens and takes care of all the details we discussed. They got the job done in less time than expected and left the yard cleaner than when they started. I was so impressed with the quality of their work, I requested a quote for mulching and lawn mowing. Lais is the new office manager. She's friendly, professional, customer focused and thorough. She has an accounting background so she is great at dotting the I's and crossing the T's. I would highly recommend them."

"Victor Landscaping is by far the best in the mid Cape area. We have used him exclusively for two years now, for our spring cleanup / mulching, fall cleanup, and lawn mowing / landscaping. After several weeks last summer seeing our yard, our neighbors soon dropped their landscaping companies and switched to Victor as well. Couldn?t recommend more highly. Affordable, dependable, and always does an excellent job."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best time to plant a tree is in the spring, so the roots have time to grow into the surrounding soil before winter sets in. Some people recommend planting in the late fall. However, planting in the spring reduces the stress on the tree, as it will be emerging from dormancy, giving it the full spring and summer ahead to acclimate and put down roots into the soil.

You may need to lay sod on the areas you dug up once you get the okay from the contractor. It will take about 30 to 45 days for the sod to take root. Consult a local sod installer to get an accurate estimate of the timeline of your specific yard-enhancement project.

You should use mulch because it protects garden soil in a few key ways. This extra layer between the ground and the elements protects against erosion, helps your soil maintain moisture, regulates changes in temperature, adds nutrients as it decomposes, and keeps weeds at bay.

Professional lakefront landscaping addresses environmental factors such as water level fluctuations, erosion control, and native plant suitability. Regular maintenance includes pruning, fertilization, and ensuring drainage systems function well.

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.
