"Jose came out initially for the quote. Which was very timely ( within a day or 2). Upon meeting him, i was impressed, very polite, attentive, and he asked questions. Some of the questions were repeated, which i appreciated. He was making sure we didn't miss anything. We walked my property, and he listened to everything i said. He was very down to earth, easy to talk to. The next day, he sent me photos of some of the jobs he had finished, before & after. I was impressed. That weekend, he sent me a reasonable quote, which i accepted, happily because i had a previous landscaper that was lazy and left a bit behind. Jose had his work cut out for him. He called me very quickly after and said he had a cancelation and asked if i minded that he came out, i believe that same weekend?. I said ABSOLUTELY!! He came with 3 workers, including his father ( i thought that was sweet). What a job!!! They were here all day long, sometimes on their hands & knees picking grass and weeds. Hard workers, WOW! The experience & technique in trimming my bushes and smaller shrubbery were impeccable. My hydrangea looked so bad, but after they performed their art, she looked beautiful and alive. The edging came out immaculate so much so that my neighbor walked over and asked them how they did that and also complemented them and myself later on. They laid mulch so nicely within the lines and growth. I took before and after pictures. I continue to get compliments by strangers just walking by, and my neighbors asked for their information. I highly recommend Jose and his respectful crew. He has agreed to help with some other things on the days my health isn't at its best. Digging holes, pulling weeds, etc. With notice and some compensation, of course. I am so pleased. I was very excited that day because my beautiful yard had NEVER looked better. What a great bunch. I can't wait to see them for my mow. I gave them a nice tip because they earned it. THANK YOU, GUYS SO MUCH! SEE YOU SOON! ?"

"Hugo Soares put in a front walkway and front step. That looks great. It seemed as though it would be good for them to put a walkway in the back and pavers for a patio area. That may look even better. Also, five retaining walls were built. Again, the work is top quality. The laborers were friendly, skilled, and took the time to do the job right and pay attention to detail. The prices were reasonable and provided an excellent value. The company provided guidance and advice before starting any project."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Generally, you want the soil for your edible plants to have good drainage, organic matter for nutrients, a loose texture (like loam soil), and a balanced pH level. However, the type of plants you're growing will dictate the exact characteristics your soil needs to thrive. For example, brussels sprout prefers more acidic soil, while broccoli prefers more alkaline soil. 

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.

Yes, you can custom-color your gravel if you’d like. Use an acrylic- or oil-based paint designed for outdoor use, and apply sealant to protect it from the elements. Some companies offer customized color gravel, either mixing the colorant in a cement mixer with gravel or using industrial mixers to dye, paint, or color it.

A light layer of mulch can help protect a tree, retain moisture, and keep the soil healthy. However, it’s important to avoid over-mulching or piling the mulch up around the trunk of a tree, a practice notoriously called “volcano mulching.” That piled mulch can increase the chances of rot and disease on the tree trunk as well as overwhelming the soil, which needs access to a certain amount of air. Topped trees have it hard enough: mulch sparingly while they heal.

Determine whether you have any other heavy, bulky, or oddly-shaped items you’d like to relocate, such as a washing machine or other appliance. Since many professional moving companies may charge minimum fees for their services, you could end up paying the same cost to move a refrigerator as you would to move the fridge and a second or third item.
