"Lazaro and his team were FANTASTIC!!! very professional, showed up on time everyday and got the job done right in the time stated. while they worked, each day they made a point to leave the area looking as tidy as possible, with tools collected and gathered. they power washed and cleared all debris from my backyard, installed a patio and rocks and mulch. they consulted me on the proposed patio pattern and rearranged the pattern when I didn't like the first proposal. Would definitely hire again as well as recommend to friends and family. very happy customer!"

"We had a fantastic experience with JK Gardening Lawn & Garden Care, from start to finish. Their pricing was very reasonable, and the quality of service exceeded our expectations. Kevin and his uncle came out to plant 20 emerald green arborvitae trees along our driveway. They dug all the holes by hand, demonstrating incredible effort and precision. They even moved the excess dirt into a neat pile exactly where we requested. Once the job was done, they thoroughly cleaned up and even blew the driveway free of debris. We couldn't be happier with their professionalism and attention to detail. Highly recommend!"

In this project, we transformed a bare dirt area by using Blue Ice stone in the corner. Along the patio border, we added Delaware River Jack to seamlessly connect the entire stone bed around the pool.

"Mejia Landcare does great work! We were in the market for a spring cleanup and reached out for an estimate. Jesus was prompt and friendly, knowledge of our plants and had a can-do attitude regarding everything we wanted done. His pricing was similar to what we paid a different provider last year, and in this time of inflation, that was appreciated! Scheduling was easy and the crew showed up first thing on the date scheduled. The crew leader was easy to talk to and shared Jesus' positive demeanor and willingness to make sure we were happy with the work. We have a fairly large property with numerous planting beds, and the crew worked diligently to pull weeds, hand edge with a shovel, trim shrubs (and pull out of couple of dead ones), and blow out leaves and other debris prior to spreading Preen (which we provided) and mulch. Everything looks great and we are very happy with the work and the experience. They will definitely be our first call in the future when we need landscaping services!"

"Antonio and crew had their work cut out for them. My husband has not been well and as a result, our yard and garden needed much work. Besides mowing the very tall grass, they needed to remove some dead bushes and trees and trim others. We will continue to use them as there is more landscaping work needed around our property. Very professional."

"I hired Baumann's Lawn and Landscape to fix my front lawn. The soil was mostly clay and sand and covered in weeds. They killed and removed all the vegetation, tilled the soil, brought in new topsoil, conditioned/fertilized, and then laid sod. The crew was fast, efficient, polite, and did an amazing job (hopefully this site allows me to upload photos after writing this). The work was done in 3 separate days and took less than 2 weeks from the initial phone call to the finished installation. The price is what you would expect for this level of work and that much sod (sod is not cheap). They're not over-priced but it's not Bob's discount landscaping either. You'll get your money's worth for your project. Baumann's will be my #1 choice for future landscape projects."

"Austin Services provided hardscape and landscaping services for our wooded and weedy backyard. Working with Steven was a pleasure; he had a vision for our yard and worked closely with us to incorporate all of our wishes. We relied heavily on his expertise in choosing the stonework and plantings and he offered us several options for both. He was very professional throughout the process, providing a detailed contract, reasonable pricing and good communication. He and his crew worked very hard over 3 and a half days to complete the work on schedule. They minimized the impact of equipment on our yard and cleaned everything up very well. We highly recommend Austin Services."

Mulch and Topsoil FAQs, answered by experts

While you can put gravel directly on dirt, it won’t be very stable. It also won’t block out any weeds. Most experts recommend layering weed barrier and a layer of packed sand or other foundation material to prevent the gravel from sinking into the earth and being overtaken by weeds.

The amount of soil you’ll need around your foundation depends on a variety of factors, but in general, you want a 6-inch decline over the first 10 feet extending out from your foundation. How much soil it will take to achieve that will depend on the current grade of the yard, how much foundation is exposed, and the size of your home.

If you have a lot of trees around your home, mulching all those leaves can smother the lawn. Air and light won't reach the grass and soil if too many leaves have been mulched. Turf grass and other lawn problems can arise if the weather is too wet and excessive leaves have been mulched.

A yard of crushed concrete costs between $20 and $50. A single-car driveway will need 1.5 to 2.5 yards of crushed concrete, putting your material costs between $30 and $125, which is much less than you’ll pay for most driveway paving methods. Your total could vary based on the thickness you’re going for, and, of course, total prices will increase with added square footage for driveways that fit multiple cars.

You can use regular sand as the base for your pavers and in between pavers to seal the joints. Many pros reach for polymeric sand, also known as all-purpose sand, because it has been sifted and washed to remove impurities. But you can easily level ground and fill gaps between pavers for a clean look using regular sand, sometimes at a lower cost.
