"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."

"Ben and his team were great! Weâ ve been in the process of moving and our yard was in desperate need of some love. When the time came to take care of the landscaping Ben and the rest of soil friends excavation were the only guys I wanted to do the job. Ben came and quoted us faster than I expected and worked us into his busy schedule. Him and his guys worked quickly and did an excellent job. I will forever hire soil friends excavation for future projects and always suggest them to others in the area. Thanks for turning my shabby yard into the best looking yard on the block!"

"Working with Jim was great. He came out and reviewed the work I wanted done and gave me a reasonable quote. When it came to doing the work he showed up exactly when he said he would, and charged me exactly what we agreed to, and did a great job. I'm very happy with the finished product."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Xeriscaping can be more affordable than traditional landscaping, but it depends on your landscape design. However, you will save on water. If you live in an arid climate or a location prone to droughts, xeriscaping is an especially efficient way of reducing your lawn’s water demand without detracting from the beauty of your yard.

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.

A half inch above ground level is ideal for metal edging. This provides enough depth for the edging to hold in place and enough height to keep in most landscaping materials (like mulch or gravel). If you install edging too high off the ground, it will stand out from your landscaping and pose a tripping risk. If you install it too low, your ground cover won’t stay in place.

In most cases, buying plants from a local greenhouse or nursery is well worth the investment, even though they tend to be a bit more expensive than those at a home improvement store. Employees at nurseries are usually well-versed in gardening and understand how the climate in your area affects different plants. They can help you make selections based on your skill level and time commitment to your landscaping, and they can provide detailed care instructions and advice to help keep your plants alive and diagnose and treat issues like pest infestation and illness.

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.
