"Castillo Landscaping just finished mulching our yard. They did a beautiful job. Jonathan and his crew arrived right on time and worked tirelessly during the day. We are very happy with the professional work they did, a fair price, and we will definitely recommend this company to others."

"I would recommend SAR Construction & Landscaping to anyone who needed these services. They got their work done quickly & followed up on their drywall repair. They also repaired a few other things for me that was not asked in our initial request. I was very grateful."

"My yard was a mess and Jose gave me a quote on a Friday work started on Tuesday. He and his worker tamed my garden, weeded, cleaned & mulched. Trimmed (way back) my over grown bushes and hauled all the waste away. He will be my forever landscaper. Already have more in the further. On time worked till the work was done. Jose and Martin were very polite and pricing was reasonable."

"We need a LOT of mulch every year and Nick has been great to get us set up early in the spring, every year. He's reliable, responsive and does a great job! Highly recommended for lawncare (he also mows for us) or general landscaping."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best landscaping for a septic drain field is shallow-rooted grass or native vegetation that helps prevent soil erosion while allowing water to evaporate efficiently. Avoid planting trees, shrubs, or deep-rooted plants near the drain field because the roots can infiltrate pipes and cause blockages. Using mulch or gravel sparingly can also help retain moisture and protect the system without restricting airflow.

Multiple rules of thumb exist when discussing tree planting. When planting a tree, the best rule of thumb is to provide it with everything it needs to survive and thrive in its new environment. That may mean learning about the type of tree you're planting and studying the best methods of taking care of it before purchasing and planting. 

Monkey grass makes a beautiful, low-maintenance ground cover, particularly in shadier areas where other grasses don’t receive enough sunlight to grow. It’s also excellent for edging walkways, bordering flower beds, and accenting rock gardens. You can grow it as a container plant, as well, which is a perfect solution for those who love its foliage but want to contain the spread.

You should use mulch because it protects garden soil in a few key ways. This extra layer between the ground and the elements protects against erosion, helps your soil maintain moisture, regulates changes in temperature, adds nutrients as it decomposes, and keeps weeds at bay.

In most cases, wait three to five days to repot or relocate a plant from a greenhouse or nursery. That way, your plant has time to recover from any shock during the move and adapt to the conditions in and around your home. Some hearty plants may not need as long, and delicate plants might need several weeks. You should ask the professional at your nursery for a recommended timeline. Consider asking about an initial watering schedule to help stimulate root growth and promote a healthy plant.
