"My experience from the beginning to the end was exceptional!! Dan called me back immediately after I left a message and scheduled someone to come out the very next day to do an estimate. Dustin was punctual, friendly and extremely helpful in providing suggestions and helping me envision a landscaping design. After discussing the details, Dustin was able to provide me with a quote as well as the date they could start work. I was in contact with Dustin prior to the work starting to run ideas by him and ask questions. He was always extremely patient with me and very helpful. Brooks Landscaping started work on the exact day they promised and the crew was very courteous and friendly. I was extremely involved in the process every step of the way and felt that it was important to them that I was engaged and 100% satisfied with everything. The entire project ended up taking 2 days and I was pleased that the crew cleaned up the “work site” both days. Overall they exceeded my expectations and I am very happy with the outcome. All of our neighbors have complimented us on the work and plan to contact Brooks Landscaping for their future landscaping needs! I would highly recommend them because they take pride in their work, did a fabulous job and I truly enjoyed my interaction with the entire crew."

"Shawn and crew were amazing to work with! We had a challenging landscape project on a new build and they did a beautiful job negotiating a difficult circumstance! Shawn is easy to work with, has a great eye for landscape design, and excellent communication and customer service skills. He went above and beyond to make sure things went well. I would absolutely recommend Quality Outdoor Services to anyone looking for a landscape designer!"

"My husband formerly installed underground irrigation, so was able to diagnose our problem as a faulty valve. But we’re both multiple cancer patients in our 70’s. Mo came out and two hours later, leaks repaired, heads adjusted, and he is going to come back later and give me an estimate to extend my system to water, my bag, flower beds, and possibly install lighting. So pleased."

"Very friendly, hardworking, helpful, and did a great job. Helped transform my yard from several years of neglect, and I am very happy with the results. Did weeding, mulching, tilling, tree trimming, edging, and probably more. Strong focus on trying to make sure I'm happy with the results and doing whatever needs to get done. Very easy to work with, and always showed up when he said he would. Look forward to working with him in the future"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

As much as you might try to keep a healthy, nutrient-rich lawn, you still may notice signs of St. Augustine decline (SAD)—a viral disease that discolors your grass blades. St. Augustine decline looks like:

  • Discoloration in the leaves (chlorosis)—leaves appear yellow and splotchy

  • Decline in growth

  • Leaves turn black within 3 years

  • Grass appears less vibrant

  • Grass begins to thin

  • Root rot

  • Grass takes longer to recover

The best landscaping for a septic drain field is shallow-rooted grass or native vegetation that helps prevent soil erosion while allowing water to evaporate efficiently. Avoid planting trees, shrubs, or deep-rooted plants near the drain field because the roots can infiltrate pipes and cause blockages. Using mulch or gravel sparingly can also help retain moisture and protect the system without restricting airflow.

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.

There are some instances when you can use extra drywall in your garden. Ideally, unused scraps of new drywall are best for amending soil without the concern of additional chemicals or mold. However, drywall with paint, mold, or potential asbestos requires specialized disposal by a professional and should be kept out of your garden.

The best time to plant is between spring and autumn. Springtime weather is typically mild and is when nurseries start to bloom. When the summer weather arrives and it’s hot out, it’s best to avoid planting bare-root plants, but you can still plant many in-container varieties. The first sign of fall is another great opportunity to plant biennials if you live in southern states, or a lovely vegetable garden up north.
