"They did an incredible job for me. They were on time and did an outstanding job by aerating my entire lawn and spreading a top soil/compost mix throughout my front and backyard so the grass seed that I put down in between the aeration and the top soil/compost mix will have a better outcome to germinate and thrive this fall and next spring, summer and fall seasons. I was especially pleased with how much the compost was spread throughout my entire lawn areas, nothing was missed by his crew of hard workers. Great job. I will definitely hire this company going forward again and recommend them to people who stop by and always ask me who my landscaper is."

"We hired this company for a second time this year to do major work on the concrete outside our home. We had our front porch, steps and patio redone: old concrete demolished and removed, new concrete installed, with new stucco on the foundation, and white vinyl railings installed. The finished work exceeds our expectations. For other home owners, I would recommend them. Zachary and Nick are genuinely nice. They oversaw the project and there was good communication throughout. They paid attention to my concerns, and had good ideas about the concrete dimensions and railing placement. The crew did an outstanding job, were respectful, and did a thorough job of yard cleanup. Shoutout to Juan for keeping me informed about progress every day - thank you. I am pleased to support this local business and recommend for concrete work."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

A half inch above ground level is ideal for metal edging. This provides enough depth for the edging to hold in place and enough height to keep in most landscaping materials (like mulch or gravel). If you install edging too high off the ground, it will stand out from your landscaping and pose a tripping risk. If you install it too low, your ground cover won’t stay in place.

A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.

A scattering of leaves won’t pose a problem through the winter, but a thicker layer of leaves may not decompose before the first frost and can instead weigh down your grass and harbor mold or fungi. A thick layer of leaves also cuts off light and air that grass needs to grow. That’s why we suggest removing thick leaf layers within several days if possible. If your lawn goes dormant over the winter and snow has already caught up with you, then remove the leaves in early spring before your grass-growing season starts so your lawn can thrive.

Monkey grass isn’t too picky when it comes to light conditions: It needs sun but prefers partial shade. While it can tolerate full sun, it thrives in environments with partial shade (around four to six hours of sunlight per day). The black mondo grass variety is the most tolerant of heat from direct sunlight.

The best size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.
