"I needed to have my driveway graded and reslopped for better drainage. Michael responded the same evening, came the following Sunday for a quote, prepped the site Wednesday, completed it Thursday. He was knowledgeable, professional, arrived when he said he would, explained what he was going to do and completed the project on time, and charged a very reasonable price.. He followed up later to make sure there were no problems.. He was professional yet personable to deal with. He and his brothers did a great job and I highly recommend them and will use them again for any sort of groundwork projects.. Thanks again Mike."

"I had recently moved to a new house and wasn't sure what was possible with my backyard. Vinlandsverket designed a plan that included a pool, lawn, planter boxes, and some simple brick paths. The service really helped me plan the brand new yard I wanted! The service was fast, professional, easy, and provided great customer service!"

"A huge shout out to Fred Cameron and his crew. They did a fabulous job paving my driveway. Fred was super to meet and talk with, he came out and met with me gave me a quote right on the spot. He gave me some great input on what he thought was best for our project. Fred had great ideas and you could tell years of experience as he explained things. Fred and his crew came when he said they would and had the project wrapped in the time he said it would take. Fred's crew were extremely pleasant and professional about the job they all worked hard and very efficiently. I would highly recommend BlackTop Paving to anyone looking to get their driveway done. Thank you Fred for a wonderful experience. Thank you to Fred's crew for all their hard work. I am a very happy customer. 😊 Rusty L"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best type of rock for landscaping depends on your specific project and needs, as different rocks are suited for different applications. For covering large areas or creating an affordable driveway, consider gravel, but note that it can wash away in flowing water. For water features, river rocks are a good option. Flagstone and cobblestone are ideal for aesthetically pleasing patios and walkways. If you are building a stone wall, fieldstone or small boulders are up to the task. Large boulders and landscape rocks work well as statement pieces, to fill empty space, or to indicate boundaries, but be mindful that they can overwhelm smaller gardens. The best approach is to first define your landscaping project and then select the rock type that best fits that purpose.

The best time to plant a tree is in the spring, so the roots have time to grow into the surrounding soil before winter sets in. Some people recommend planting in the late fall. However, planting in the spring reduces the stress on the tree, as it will be emerging from dormancy, giving it the full spring and summer ahead to acclimate and put down roots into the soil.

Palm trees are relatively easy to grow, especially when planting different varieties in their native habitats. While regular watering is crucial in the first couple of months while the palm develops a strong root ball, palms typically require minimal maintenance once they’re established. You’ll need to prune palm fronds once or twice per year to keep it in tip-top shape.

The best size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.

The primary disadvantages of xeriscaping are the high upfront cost and the significant labor required to establish it. A xeriscaping project can cost between $3,000 and $24,000 on average. Additionally, the resulting landscape will have less of a traditional green appearance, which may not appeal to everyone's personal taste and could potentially narrow your pool of buyers if you decide to sell your home. However, despite these initial drawbacks, the long-term benefits include saving water, time, and money on lawn maintenance.
