"Jorge responded immediately to my request for an estimate on lots of weed removal and several shrubs to be removed. His estimate was reasonable and we decided to go ahead with the project. With the amount of weeds we had I thought that the job would take at least 1/2 day. Jorge arrived with a two man crew and they tackled the job. Within two hours all weeds and several shrubs had been removed and everything was cleaned up and taken away. Jorge and his guys were very polite and did not waste any time in doing this job! We were quite happy with the result and are going to use Jorge for more projects. I am so glad that I went with my gut feeling and hired Jorge to take care of a job that I thought was overwhelming."

"Justin and crew do an outstanding job, always. We have been using them for several years now for routine mowing, spring/fall clean-ups, weeding, fertilizer, seeding, etc. This year we asked Justin to do a major backyard project involving tree removal, grading, installation of a stone wall, replacement of our patio with a larger one that includes a stone fire pit, and a bunch of new trees and plantings. They are extremely attentive to detail and created a beautiful result. I recommend them very highly."

"I hired D&G Landscape & Masonry to do a major spring cleanup of my father‘s property. It had been several years since the property had been maintained and D&G arrived early yesterday morning with a crew and I can’t thank them enough for the amazing job they did. Everything was so overgrown that it was overwhelming to even begin to think how we would get everything removed. The crew went to work and removed a truckload or more of weeds, Japanese bamboo, and every other kind of weed you could imagine. The place has been completely transformed. They also removed the front lawn and put soil down and seeded it and did an amazing job. Every weed on the property was removed. They worked so hard and did such an amazing job. I cannot thank them enough."

"I was completely blown away by the work that we had done. Lisa, who was the designer was very attentive and quick to return emails and really put a lot of thought into my project. She always responded to emails within an hour and was very honest with me when it came to ideas that i had for the project. She provided a detailed drawing of my property with her ideas for plantings, stepping stones, etc. this made my life very easy by not having to imagine what she was thinking. PJ, who was the foreman on the job was also a great guy and on top of things. He always had my best interests in mind when giving his opinion about grading the yard and what would be best for my children, which was my highest priority. Walter was one of the workers who did a lot of the grading and he was also in constant communication with me. Walter and PJ came up with, and implemented a swing-set area that doubled as a retaining wall to bring up the grade on the lower side of my yard and it came out amazing. We had some irrigation issues at first because some areas were being over-watered. Nick, who was in charge of the irrigation came out to my house multiple times, after all of the work had already been paid for, to make sure that my timers were taken care of and the grass remained in tip-top shape. After paying in full, I still got immediate responses from all parties in this company and they provided immediate solutions within a day or two. They could have put me on the back burner to handle current customers, but they remained attentive to my needs. I plan to use them for cleanups and for all of my fertilizing. I highly recommend this company to everyone."

"Jose was responsive, courteous, and efficient. We originally hired him for a yard cleanup but the job expanded to cleaning out a large bed of poison ivy and replacing 2 shrubs. Jose and crew not only did a great job but they cleaned up their work and took away some rocks and other debris. Jose also gave us referrals for other service providers, much appreciated. We will certainly hire him again."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Adding vinegar to your lawn increases the acidity of the area, which can kill quack grass present above the ground. However, putting vinegar in your yard will also kill the grass. Unfortunately, the below-ground quack grass rhizomes remain very much alive in the presence of vinegar and will soon sprout again.

Weeds can grow through rubber mulch, but it depends on if you removed all the weeds in your garden beforehand. Weeds already in the soil can grow even when using rubber mulch. However, that doesn’t mean that your garden will be littered with rubber and weeds, but it does mean that the occasional weed might still pop up. Another way you can increase your weed suppression is by using landscape fabric as a second layer. 

Glyphosate and other non-selective herbicides can kill orchard grass, but they will also kill the surrounding plants. Also, not all areas allow the use of glyphosate due to its environmental impact—which the EPA describes as a "potential risk to terrestrial and aquatic plants and birds, and low toxicity to honeybees." Consider mechanical removal to target the plants specifically.

There are several ways to kill poison ivy permanently. The trick is to keep it from coming back. Herbicides and natural remedies are highly effective for killing existing poison ivy plants. However, plant and root parts left behind can easily create new sprouts that turn into full-grown plants. The only way to permanently get rid of poison ivy is to be patient and diligent until all traces of the plant are dead and gone.

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.
