Guzman Landscaping provides professional landscaping services, including lawn care, garden design, and hardscaping, to enhance and maintain beautiful outdoor spaces for residential and commercial properties.

"I hired Carlos Guzmán (Guzman Landscaping) for a $500 yard cleanup, with a written scope of work agreed by email. Before he began, I explained the proven methods my family has used for over 40 years to maintain the yard, including using tarps to gather leaves, placing leaf piles at the far corner, and collecting acorns for County pickup. He assured me he would leave the yard perfect and said he would call me if he had any questions. After the job, I found many areas left unfinished: acorns remained across the yard, crushed leaves were left on the ground, and debris was not removed from the fence line and backyard. I emailed him respectfully and asked him either to return to complete the work or let me know if he preferred not to continue. Instead of responding by email, I received several text messages demanding payment, including instructions to send money to his address or have my bank mail a check. I later received additional messages from the Angi relay number that appeared to represent Angi, adding to the confusion. As a senior customer, the tone and timing of these messages were upsetting. I am seeking a resolution through Angi so this matter can be handled professionally and safely."

"Wonderful work, very professional, and cost competitive company. 3-years later no issues. Kevin and his team came in to put a nice flagstone staff 8x45 ft patio in next to our house to replace the grass. It was completed quickly and when there was a minor issue that cropped up within 4-months due to bad stones from the quarry, they came back to replace asap. 100% confidence and would hire again. Thanks guys!"

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Rocks are less likely to attract snakes and other critters because their prey (termites, ticks, and other insects) don’t usually inhabit this environment. However, if you have placed together rocks with large spaces in between or near a source of water, you may find a snake or an occasional chipmunk seeking shelter.

There are two main times of the year to spread mulch—mid-spring and late fall. Spring mulching protects new seedlings as the soil warms up and the rainy season begins. Fall mulching insulates the soil and regulates its temperature as the first frosts arrive.

Some drawbacks of forestry mulching include leaving behind a thick mulch layer, not being suitable for extremely rocky areas, creating conditions that attract pests, and not being able to fully remove large trees and stumps. You may need to pay extra to have larger trees felled and stumps ground in order to fully clear your land.

Depending on the size of the river rock and the density of your soil, add woven landscape fabric or sand under river rock. The extra layer will ensure your river rock sits evenly and doesn't create puddles or uneven areas throughout the design. In some cases, nothing is necessary beneath river rock, but be sure to speak with a landscaper to keep your landscaping looking sharp.

Hydroseeding is a great option for sloped yards, as sod might not root as well. Hydroseeding also traditionally creates sprouts faster than normal seeding—up to a full week faster. Additionally, you can customize your slurry mix with hydroseed, allowing you to create a mixture that will work specifically for your yard’s conditions. 

It’s important to remember that hydroseeded lawns require a lot of water during the first few weeks of installation, which can be time-consuming and costly. Additionally, the installation window tends to be shorter than that of sod and traditional grass.
