"We have had Chris do a number of smaller jobs for us over the last 5 years. We have always been extremely pleased with the quality of his work. The shoreline rock wall was by far the biggest project he has done for us. We couldn't be more pleased with the final outcome! In order to get the huge rocks to the shore, our yard was pretty torn up in the process, as was the sand beach. Not only does the rock wall look fantastic, but they put the yard and beach back in better shape than it was in the first place. In addition, Chris is friendly as well as professional and really cares about our input and suggestions. We will hire him again! "
"Tom and his crew did a great job for us! We knew we needed landscaping but weren’t sure what to have done. Tom was very helpful in giving us options and helped us pick out a solution that both looked great and fit our budget. His crew was very professional and efficient in getting the job done. I highly recommend Sirek Landscaping Co. for any type of landscaping you need done and will hire Tom for any future work!"
"Jason and his crew did a fantastic job at a reasonable price for my landscaping project.. A smaller, local company beats the larger landscape companies by providing great service, knowledge, communication and expectations of the project. I highly recommend Jason Black for any landscape project you may have at your home!"
"Twin City Landscape originally installed my paver patio about a decade ago. They were fantastic. Debbie listed to what I wanted and told me how they would do it (unlike some other companies, who tried to talk me into doing something easier). I love my patio. Last year, I decided to finally fix a retaining wall, and do a small extension of my patio, so I contacted Twin City Landscape again. Once again, they did fantastic work. I will recommend Twin City Landscape to anyone doing landscaping (and in fact, I just did)."
"Jessica and her team completed our project in 1.5 days which is what she initially said it would be. They worked extremely hard morning until late afternoon. Clean up was terrific! You couldn’t even tell someone had worked on our driveway. We enjoyed the bees and butterflies visiting our new plants/shrubs all summer! Many thanks to Jessica and her team at Better Yards and Gardens!"
"MN Grown is outstanding. Dan is professional, very knowledgeable & has great design sense. His planning & measurements are precise, & as Dan says "It has be done right.". He will answer any questions & is open to new requests. His pricing is fair & very competitive. The privacy planting he created for me is beautiful & has a professionally finished look. I'm already planning the next project with him!"
"Cherry Hill installed and programmed my Irrigreen irrigation system plus 10,000Sq. ft. of beautiful sod. Love my new instant yard! The entire crew was there to answer all my questions. Austin and Ryan were really amazing in guiding the project. They were so easy to work with! I'd definitely recommend them to renew your lawn and any other landscaping projects!!"

"We started the project late in the season knowing it may not be able to be completed before winter visited. The Pavers need to be laid down as soon as the weather warms up. It was to late to plant any item so this will also be done in the spring. We are first on their list. Will know more about them when job is completed. At this time I gave them five stars because they were professional and OK to have around. We'll see later what the rating might be."
A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.
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.
Consulting your local university extension, Audubon society, or municipal urban forestry program are all good ideas when choosing a tree to plant. You can also ask an arborist or a knowledgeable landscaping company for advice on good trees to plant.
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.
As with anything you do near your foundation, you’ll want to ensure proper drainage when you plant your foundation beds. Your drainage should run downhill from the highest point against your foundation to avoid water intrusion and incurring expensive foundation repair costs.
