"Mark did an outstanding job on our front and back yard. Due to COVID-19, we changed our wedding plans and decided to get some landscaping done in order to have a small backyard wedding. Initially, our yard was overrun with weeds and dead trees with deep roots. Mark sketched us a design that included all plant options, met with us to discuss the plan, and was very honest with timing and fair with pricing. In a matter of 6 weeks, Mark transformed our yard into the Garden of Eden! He was patient and insightful and had excellent suggestions for planting and placement. He worked efficiently and kept us in the loop at every turn. He incorporated our ideas beautifully and also added nice touches throughout the yard. Mark also designed and built a small pond with a waterfall that quickly became the highlight of the backyard. We chose to get married right next to the pond and all of our virtual guests were in awe. He gave us a great tutorial on how to maintain the pond, plants, and when to expect them to bloom. He even came back a few weeks after the job was completed to answer questions and give additional maintenance tips. Mark has quickly turned into a friend and thanks to his talent and creativity, we are now the talk of the neighborhood. He is a very hard worker. Even in this latest heat wave (90+ degrees), he spent 8 hours each weekday in our yard. Mark is always responsive to texts and calls and we highly recommend him for all of your landscaping and lighting needs."

"I hired Porter Design Landscaping and Home Improvement to install a metal roof on my pergola after the ice storm destroyed the canvas shades. His company did an excellent job of installing the metal roof and suggested that I get the wood painted to match the rails and agreed with his suggestion and the final product looks amazing"

"I had been searching for patio renovators/builders and landscaping contractors for some work to be done for a while now, over a month. Had a few coming in for estimates, however none were effecient or seemed like they were interested in getting the work. When I hadnt heard back from any of them, that is when I contacted Home Advisors for contractors in my area. They recommended JB Gardens Inc. And some others. I decided after checking their website, I would contact JB Gatdens Inc. They were very enthusiatic about coming over for an estimate and chat with me on what my projects were. They were courteous and liistened and professional about the work to be done and shared with me their experience and porrfolio and also shared with me some sample pavers on the very first day we met. Within that same day, I was sent quotes and supply lists via email. I was happy with the price and it was fair and reasonable. I was very impressed with the teams' work, work ethics, professionalism and candor. Very honest, upfront and they were willing to perform little tasks on the side for me at no extra cost. They worked for about 9 days straight and built me a wonderful patio, a side patio and 2 walkways (one with a front porch). Their work is immaculate, they pay so much attention to detail and cleaned up beautifully. A happy team is a happy and content employee and their management is what makes the company. I couldnt say more. They were superb and I would hire them again in future, should I have any home improvement projects. Many good returns to JB Gardens Inc (Jose, Manuel and Team) and looking forward to my landscaping work to begin in Oct! See you back then!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

You should avoid planting grass, shrubs, plants, and trees in freezing temperatures, as the ground can get frozen and become too hard for proper root growth. It’s best to plant in the fall to allow your plants to establish root systems before the first frost. Landscaping when the average temperature in your area is between 50 and 60 degrees will usually deliver the best results.

Yes, many providers offer organic or eco-friendly treatments. Confirm availability with your contractor.

Most bamboo can send roots down two to three feet into the ground. However, when stopping bamboo from spreading, the focus is on the runner roots or rhizomes. These roots are much shallower, staying 12 inches or less from the surface, so they’re easier to find and remove. But if you want to remove the bamboo entirely, you’ll have to dig out the full root system.

Yes, you can landscape in the rain, but you should take some precautions to keep yourself and your tools safe. Avoid using electric landscaping tools during rainfall, and don’t mow, thatch, aerate, or rake in the rain, as your tools can more easily tear out roots in the loose soil. Be careful when working on wet grass, and take your time to avoid slipping. Avoid putting in new plants before a particularly bad storm, as heavy rain and strong winds can damage or uproot plants that aren’t yet established.

The truth is, there really is no such thing as a 100% deer-proof plant. Deer will decimate even the prickliest flora if they’re hungry enough. However, there are plenty of beautiful plants that deer don’t necessarily enjoy. These include thistles, wisteria vines, sword ferns, and beautyberries.

Deer are herbivores, and they love vegetable gardens as much as Peter Rabbit. If you don’t want to fence in your entire property, consider creating an attractive raised-bed veggie garden with mesh fencing around it to keep out deer and other critters.
