"Was hired to mow grass for my Mother and HB Landscaping has done that and a whole lot more. Her driveway needed to be fixed and new stoned put down. Cleared a slope behind the house and garage, got rid of all the stumps and roots, and put down grass seed and straw.. Most recently took down a huge pine tree that was dying and causing concern. HB Landscaping is very professional and I enjoy working with them. Their pricing is reasonable and what I like most about them is they are willing to take on any job. I plan to have them trim the bushes this year at the end of the season. I’m already thinking of jobs for next year besides mowing, like fertilizing the yard and installing a couple of raised flowers beds. I’m very pleased as well as my Brother and Sister for all the work they have done for my Mother. My Mother is picking, but she is happy with all the work as well and she enjoys talking with them while they are there. I HIGHLY recommend their services."

Sand Rock Delivery FAQs, answered by experts

Basic kits exist, but professional soil engineers provide in-depth analysis and construction recommendations.

The best size river rock for your landscaping project depends on how you plan to use the stones. Generally, most river rocks used in landscaping are between 1/2 and 8 inches in diameter. For walkways and pathways, smaller rocks between 1 and 3 inches are suitable. For water features, medium-sized stones from 2 to 5 inches often work best. Garden beds can benefit from a mix of medium and large stones, ranging from 3 to 8 inches. These sizes can cover applications like decorative flower beds and drainage areas around foundations or retaining walls. For added visual interest, landscapers sometimes intersperse smaller river rocks with large boulders.

When laying gravel, it's often a good idea to apply a base layer, such as sand or crushed concrete. You may also want to layer a weed-blocking membrane on top of the base layer to prevent weeds and grass from sprouting up in your gravel driveway. Without the appropriate base layer, the gravel you lay may sink into the soil.

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.

Although it’s not required to lay anything under mulch, it can help to put landscape fabric or plastic weed barrier down and lay mulch on top. The barrier helps keep weeds from growing up through your mulch. It also helps keep rodents and insects from burrowing into the ground underneath.
