"First of all, our landscape designer, John, considered our thoughts on what we would like our landscape to look like. It was important to us that it was low maintenance ,deer resistant, and colorful. John's design is artistic, 3 dimensional, and simply beautiful! John accompanied the project manager, Renee, and his team to ensure they understood the design that he envisioned. The team worked together so smoothly and efficiently. John kept us informed from our initial contact so we were never wondering when our project would be completed. When the landscaping was done Renee did a walk through with us to see if we were pleased. We contacted John, as he requested, and he returned to our home to talk to us. This was within 15 minutes of the landscape completion. He wanted to be certain that we were happy with his design. We would highly recommend Clean Cut landscaping to family and friends!"

"Matt was great to work with. Ensure I had a clear understanding of the work being done and the cost. Fall prep and clean up requirements were agreed upon in advance. Yard looked great once the work was done. Will definitely use Dunks Landscaping again"

"Eric came out on a Sunday offered a fair price showed up the time he said he would very nice and personable guy. The job was simple just change out a few sprinkler heads and make some adjustments. Between Eric and my husband they figure out a way to hook up a separate sprinkler system in the middle of yard so it could be used from the main box. He asked me if I was satisfied with the job and I asked him if he was satisfied with the job. All is good!!"

"We hired AJâ s Creative Landscape for a couple of landscaping projects. The crew came on site in time as scheduled with all required tools and machines. They were professional, worked hard and even made extra steps to comfort us and also to protect our existing grass from possible damage. Alexander (Alex) acted as salesman, foreman and project coordinator and did excellent job. We would recommend this company to everybody."

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.

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.

The soil around your foundation should slope down and away from your home, not toward it. If the grading drops the farther you are from your home, you can enhance the slope by removing more soil. Mark off a few feet from your house and dig up some of this soil. Regrading around your fountain should encourage water to flow away from your home and not collect or “pond.”

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.

Yes, you can landscape in the rain, but you should take some precautions to keep yourself and your tools safe. Avoid using electric landscaping tools during rainfall, and don’t mow, thatch, aerate, or rake in the rain, as your tools can more easily tear out roots in the loose soil. Be careful when working on wet grass, and take your time to avoid slipping. Avoid putting in new plants before a particularly bad storm, as heavy rain and strong winds can damage or uproot plants that aren’t yet established.
