"The crew of 5, including 2 tree climbers, arrived promptly as scheduled, as did the estimator the day before. They worked careful to suspend limbs and avoid crashing the roof, removed at least all that was requested, and did a thorough cleanup. Really nice crew chief. The price was excellent. Having used them before, I didn’t comparison shop having previously found them significantly cheaper."

"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!"

"This is a review from a very satisfied customer. Unbeatable price and unbeatable promptness! Extremely satisfied. The owner, Alvero, was not the earliest person to respond to my request for a quote, but the wait was well worth it. He offered extremely competitive pricing, and the entire work for the removal of two 50+ foot tall trees was completed within 48 hours. If you skip a quote from this company, you might be missing out on a great deal. Highly recommended!"

We were established in 2002 and have 4 crews. Residential and commercial junk removal to remove all your junk. Just point it out and away it goes. We now remove paint and any non-flamable products for additional charges.

"It went great! Very easy for me since I simply showed them what I wanted removed and then they took it out to their truck. At least a dozen things. They were very reasonably priced and friendly as well!"

"This is the second job we've used Riggs Landscaping for and I can't say enough about how impressed I am with his work. The first job was the installation of pavers from the driveway and onto the front steps, replacing the 'builder' cement. His experience shows, from the suggestions and implementation of sloping the terrain away from the foundation of the house which completely eliminated any water leakage which was occurring in the basement. I constantly receive compliments on how beautiful the pavers look! This job entailed the installation of a path from the front of the house to the back deck stairs. Most of the area was on a hill so it meant leveling it, putting in pressure treated lumber to build up the sides and burying the drain spouts. Perfect again! He cleans up, he's on time, and just an honest nice man. I would HIGHLY recommend him!"

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Landscape boulders, especially porous stones like sandstone or granite, can crack or break over time. Cracks occur when water seeps into the surface of the stone and freezes. The risk is highest when it rains during the day and temperatures freeze overnight since the moisture has time to penetrate deeper into the rock before expanding.

If you decide to DIY your boulder removal project, you’ll want to wear work gloves and protect your eyes if you decide to break the boulder into smaller pieces. Wear a lifting harness and focus on lifting with your legs to prevent back injuries. If you’re digging around a large boulder or using heavy machinery to get underneath it, make sure there are no utility lines nearby.

Topsoil provides plants with essential nutrients, water, and air for healthy root growth. It offers a rich ecosystem of microorganisms that improve soil quality and structure. For existing lawns, ¼ inch of topdressing can enhance root growth and support new seed. For gardens, two inches of topsoil can promote strong growth and crops.

If you like the look of mulch in your plant beds, be aware that it can attract a variety of pests, including termites. To avoid wood-to-foundation contact, leave a one-foot barrier around your house and fill it in with rocks or gravel, starting mulch past that barrier and working it outward into your plant beds. 

Grass varieties such as tall fescue, zoysia, Bermuda, Bahia, and centipede grow best in sandy soil. These types of grass are drought resistant, so they help retain water and nutrients more easily. Consult a local lawn care company to determine the best type of grass to plant in your sandy lawn.
