"After hiring a previous landscaper, we werenâ t quite happy with the softscape results. So we met with John and he assured us Renee and his crew would work together to redesign our beds. They did a fabulous job reusing existing plants, adding new plants, replacing a poorly seeded grass area with sod and repairing our underground sprinklers. Our front yard now looks complete and beautiful! Everyone at â Clean Cutâ was great to work with and we plan to use them for work in the future. . Thank you John!"

"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."

"RPM Excavation, LLC, graded and incorporated additional soil into both backyard and front yard areas where deep ruts had ruined the integrity of the lawn which could no longer be mowed properly. After distributing good topsoil, they seeded the area and covered it with straw. They also installed a drainage pop-up to take care of the overflow water from the gutters. They did a great job. Looks good."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

A scattering of leaves won’t pose a problem through the winter, but a thicker layer of leaves may not decompose before the first frost and can instead weigh down your grass and harbor mold or fungi. A thick layer of leaves also cuts off light and air that grass needs to grow. That’s why we suggest removing thick leaf layers within several days if possible. If your lawn goes dormant over the winter and snow has already caught up with you, then remove the leaves in early spring before your grass-growing season starts so your lawn can thrive.

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.

It’s usually best to buy plants from a local greenhouse or nursery yourself, but landscapers are also a reliable option. First, you can choose exactly what plants you want based on their appearance rather than relying on your landscaper to choose. Additionally, while it’s more time-consuming to go buy the plants yourself, you’ll often save money because landscapers charge for delivery and may upcharge the plants. You can also speak to a professional at a nursery to ensure you understand how to care for your plants and get the most long-term value.

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.
