"Over the past 3 months I have been looking for someone reliable to complete the landscape work at my rental property in Kalamazoo. I had 2 other contractors that were not reliable and were extremely hard to get ahold of. This was not the case with McNutt Landscaping. They reached out to me right away when I put in my request on Angie’s list. My experience is unique because I don’t live in Kalamazoo so I had to explain over the phone the landscape upgrades I wanted to have done. They were able to complete the work within my budget and they did it within 3 days of my initial call. The project came out great and I will be using them for regular lawn care moving forward. Very professional company and would recommend to anyone interested in landscaping work."

"We hired Stanton to excavate and prepare a site for a large storage shed, and to pour a concrete pad. The work was done on time and the cost reasonable. We are delighted with the final result."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Landscaping prices are sometimes negotiable, but it depends on the professional with whom you’re working. In most cases, you’ll have a better chance of negotiating prices down the more work you have done. Your pro might be willing to discount labor if they’re guaranteed a large job. You can also ask your landscaper to recommend more affordable materials that will still bring your vision to life to save.

Monkey grass isn’t too picky when it comes to light conditions: It needs sun but prefers partial shade. While it can tolerate full sun, it thrives in environments with partial shade (around four to six hours of sunlight per day). The black mondo grass variety is the most tolerant of heat from direct sunlight.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

Yes, if you are using rocks to form a pathway or driveway, it’s a good idea to first install landscape fabric before layering in your rocks. Landscape fabric is your first line of defense against unwanted grass and weeds on your rocky surface.

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.
