"Chris and his crew did an excellent job. Chris updated me throughout the project and made several helpful suggestions to improve the outcome. They trimmed the arborvitae’s in the front and removed unwanted ones in the back. They also ground down the stump leftover from a previously removed large honey locust tree, regraded, brought in compost topsoil mixture, fertilizer, and seeded. However, the largest part of the job was redoing the landscaping beds in front and back and under the deck. They removed the old mulch and weeds, regraded so water flows away from the house, laid down weed preventer and fabric barrier. Then they put down natural stone edging and brought in beautiful high quality, premium Indy Roll Rock. We couldn’t be happier!"

"Finishing Touch Landscaping exceeded all my expectations! Our property had a problem of water runoff causing serious soil erosion that required some excavation, installation of an extended drainage system, installation of railroad ties, topsoil and regrading. The cost estimate was very competitive with other local landscapers and all work was done in a very professional manner. Frank Davis is more than just a landscaper; he is an experienced problem-solver and came up with suggestions that added value to the project without exceeding the budget. He has experienced workmen and makes it his business to supervise the project in person."

"Kevin is kind and knowledgeable and so easy to work with. He was able to help me with removing landscaping and weeds that needed to go and suggest lovely, more appropriately sized bushes and plants. He responded to requests to put down killer for the bamboo that had invaded my yard which I hadn’t originally asked for quickly and kindly. He also cleared a weeded area and made a lovely concrete blocked patio area for me. The thing that I really appreciated is that he explained about the plants and gave me all the tags for each and explained how to care for them. I am not a gardener and I so appreciate both the lesson and the information about each plant so I can look up more information if needed. I plan to ask him to return to remove several bushes due to having too large of bushes put too close together. A bonus is that he was just so kind and easy to talk to. I am a widow and felt so comfortable and confident having Kevin do the work for me."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

It depends on the model of your pool. You’ll always have to level the topsoil, but most vinyl-lined pools require an additional 1- to 2-inch layer of sand to protect the liner. This way, when a foot kicks down to the bottom of your pool, it’s not scraping the liner against the hard ground. If your pool isn’t vinyl-lined, you can skip this step or add a layer of another base material, like decomposed granite. Always check your manufacturer’s instructions before you begin.

Yes, mulch can attract pests. Spiders, centipedes, and ants are some common pests that are attracted to mulch. You can avoid infestation by laying your bags of mulch in the heat for a few hours or by using an inorganic mulch, as it’s less attractive to pests.

There are a few ways you can reduce the cost of mulch delivery, including the following:

  • Place your order in the winter months for spring delivery

  • Choose a more affordable mulch color

  • Opt for a more affordable type of mulch

  • Place larger orders to get a lower cost per cubic foot

  • Opt to lay your own mulch to save on installation costs

  • Add on other delivery or landscaping services to save on travel costs

  • Prepare a single delivery site in the front of your property, and use a wheelbarrow to move smaller quantities 

Landscape boulders, especially porous stones like sandstone or granite, can crack or break over time. Cracks occur when water seeps into the surface of the stone and freezes. The risk is highest when it rains during the day and temperatures freeze overnight since the moisture has time to penetrate deeper into the rock before expanding.

If you are xeriscaping a lawn from scratch, your best bet for preparing the lawn is to work with a xeriscaping specialist in your area. The most common first step to making the transformation, however, will be to remove the turfgrass from your lawn. The subsequent steps will often include amending the soil to support new plants and installing low-drip or drip irrigation systems.
