Customers say: Quality work

"Leisha and the team at Garden’s by the Yard helped me address some very difficult landscaping issues. Our lot borders conservation land and is slopped and extremely rocky. In addition, it is not accessible to heavy machinery. We experienced significant drainage and erosion issues. The team put in two French drains to help with erosion and Leisha developed a planting plan that leaned toward natives, would provide multiple season colors, aid in water control and would thrive in our complex soil conditions. They also installed an irrigation system to help set us up for success. The team has returned multiple times to check on the plantings and provide additional upkeep and guidance The yard turned out beautiful and I am extremely pleased. Leisha and her team were knowledgeable and easy to work with. The crews were hard-working and extremely respectful of our property."

"Edgar and his crew have been able to handle every yard project I throw their way. Great crew, no one smoking, no swearing, and no one playing on the phones every 5 minutes. All the guys worked so hard to get everything done. Make an appointment for him to come for the estimate, you will get a call back. Solid guys!"

"I had an excellent experience with Elbert and his team from EP Landscape & Demo. He answered my request within an hour, was extremely communicative, professional, and fair throughout the entire process. Elbert’s crew even came out early the next morning after booking to get the fall cleanup and yard waste removal mostly done before the nor’easter hit — I was so impressed by their dedication! My yard had become overgrown, and I just couldn’t manage it on my own anymore. Wesley worked incredibly hard and efficiently, transforming the space in no time. He also handled a basement cleanup, and everything was done quickly and thoroughly within 2 days. I’m thrilled with the results and truly appreciate Elbert’s honesty and fairness. We’re already planning future landscaping projects, and I’m looking forward to working with him again. I couldn’t be happier — I only wish I had called him sooner!"

"John's Landscaping was very professional and prompt. John showed up on time and had some really creative ideas for a design. His design team does a great job and worked with us through multiple revisions of the project.  The install was done on time and in a professional manner and the yard looks great.

"We've worked with 4 or 5 other landscaping companies over the years, and they were ok. But Narrow Lane is in a completely different class. All the work was done promptly and efficiently, and the quality was outstanding. The extension of the paver walkway looks better than the original, and addition of the cobble border around the pebbled area makes a real difference to finished look of the yard. I especially appreciated extra touches: we had put in our own stone border where they put the cobbles, and rather than just dispose of the stones, they used them else where to prevent erosion. We were so pleased with the work, that we signed up for regular yard maintenance with them."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Yes, rock gardens do need water. That said, they typically require less regular watering and, instead, more occasional, deep watering since the rocks trap moisture for longer than mulch. Make sure you don’t water your rock garden too much during the winter.

If you choose to leave gaps between your pavers, you can grow some ground cover plants between them for an organic feel. Look for plants such as creeping thyme, dymondia, jewel mint of Corsica, or clover.

A full backyard renovation can cost between $15,000 and $50,000, depending on the scope of the project. Excavation, materials, and labor costs all contribute to the final cost of updating your outdoor spaces, and expensive features like a pool, a fence, or hardscaping carry a high price tag.

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.

The best time to plant a privet hedge is autumn, ideally October or early November. Fall is the best time to plant privet hedges because young plants need plenty of water to jump-start their growth, and it typically rains more during this season. However, you can also successfully plant privets in the spring.
