"Artistic Landscapes Inc. was one of many companies we talked to and received quotes from about installing a boulder retaining wall in our backyard to replace aging railroad ties and decking. The backyard is sloped with very limited access to move materials and equipment, therefore many of the companies we spoke with responded with either limited options for landscape ideas or unaffordable prices. Chris came out, listened to our ideas, gave us some of his and told us exactly what we could expect; he quickly put a bid together and we were elated it fell within our budget. 



He and his crew not only worked around the limited access issues, but challenging weather including rain and wet conditions/clay soils. In addition to an approximate 60 foot long boulder retaining wall, they installed 33 paver stones for a pathway, steps as a feature area, additional large boulders for aesthetic enhancements and graded the area to address critical storm water runoff needs. The placement of each stone/boulder was clearly thought through, resulting in a unique and attractive wall versus many of the standard "one on top of the other" looks.



Toward the end there were a few minor tweaks we requested to which Chris and his crew were more than happy to accommodate until they knew we were completely satisfied. Clean up was fabulous too; our front yard damaged by major equipment during the process (which we knew was necessary) was fully restored as promised!



Chris was good to communicate with and very trustworthy in terms of what he committed to delivering. I would recommend Artistic Landscapes to anyone seeking quality work at a fair price, and by someone who knows what works and what doesn't. We absolutely love our new backyard...thanks Chris and Artistic Landscapes!

"From start to finish our experience was outstanding. From our first communication with Jason (he called back within a day!), setting a time to walk through our yard, understanding what we wanted/needed, a fair estimate, right down to the landscape team was professional and did great work. The work they did was top-notch, courteous staff, efficient and overall the end product looks great. At the end of their work day, Jason walked us through all that was done and gave instruction and recommendations to maintain our new, refreshed landscape. We would for certain hire the company again."

"Jerry and his crew were great! We foster a lot of rescue dogs so it was impossible to grow grass in our yard and we were tired of the mud pit every time it rained or snow melted. Turf was a great solution and the dogs love it. Jerry took his time explaining our options that would be best for dogs. They were courteous and fast with installation. Highly recommend them."

"Clark Companies did excellent work on our recent landscaping project. They regraded our yard, installed new landscape edging, and built a high-quality paver patio. The crew, led by Ryan and Tim, was punctual, courteous, and very detail-oriented. The finished result exceeded our expectations — we’re thrilled with how everything turned out."

"So far, so good. After being abandoned by BladeRunners after I complained about their shoddy work, I needed a new person quick. E&R returned my call quickly, I hired him to do the driveway once to show me his work and was impressed. His reviews are correct. He is not the cheapest, but he offers a level of service the others I have hired don't. So you get what you pay for."

"Randy’s was an excellent company to work with. Our technician was thorough and took the time to talk through different options. We initially had them out for a few outlet installations but ended up having outdoor lights replaced in the back and front yard lights fixed."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

Most bamboo can send roots down two to three feet into the ground. However, when stopping bamboo from spreading, the focus is on the runner roots or rhizomes. These roots are much shallower, staying 12 inches or less from the surface, so they’re easier to find and remove. But if you want to remove the bamboo entirely, you’ll have to dig out the full root system.

There are several reasons your grass may be dying that could be in or out of your control. The most common issues include poor drainage, under/overwatering, poor soil pH, low soil nutrients, low sunlight, or too much foot traffic.

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.

The cost to plant a small tree or sapling is between $100 and $300 on average, if you hire a professional. Big trees will cost more and usually require the work of a specialist, so expect to pay over $1,000 for those.

The condition and appearance of your yard can affect your home appraisal value. A well-maintained, attractive yard with curb appeal adds to a property’s value, while an overgrown, messy, poorly maintained yard can hurt your home’s appraisal. Even small cosmetic improvements to your yard, like adding mulch, trimming trees, and cleaning out plant beds, can help your appraisal value.
