"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."

"Hard working, extremely reliable, flexible scheduling, polite, courteous, and shows on time. Cleared my backyard of weeds including roots, used pick axe instead of a tiller which would have blended weed roots back into the soil. Disposed of all the weed root waste. Planted zoysia sod as requested, even offered to use his trailer to pick up final load at sod farm in Poolesville, MD about 1 hr and 10 minutes from my home in Shepherdstown, WV saving me time and travel. Timely in completing the work and reasonably priced."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

Many people have used old tires in gardens as raised beds, planters, tree rings, and DIY decor. However, these uses are not recommended due to the toxicity of many of the chemicals used to manufacture tires. These chemicals can leach into the soil and water as the tire breaks down, creating environmental pollution and health hazards for gardeners and their families.

If shade is a priority for you, then panting elm trees is a fine choice. A full mature elm tree has enough aesthetic appeal for some folks that it could add value to your home. 

That said, never plant elm trees too close to your home, sewer line, or sidewalks, as their roots can damage these, which can lead to costly repairs.

Common features in lakefront landscaping projects include native and water-tolerant plants, stone paths, docks or piers, seating areas, and erosion control solutions to create a harmonious integration with the waterfront setting.

Yes, you can absolutely transplant bushes instead of removing them completely. The success depends on the size of the bushes, their age, and the transplanting season. Ideally, transplant during the dormant season (late fall or winter). Dig out the entire root system in one piece, fill the new hole with fresh soil and mulch, and water thoroughly after planting.
