"Last year I needed to adjust all my sprinkler heads as landscaping changed a bit and needed my weather station moved. They did an excellent job and the sales person even came out when I called because I could not figure out how to make some more adjustments that I needed. So far I have been happy with my irrigation system and the service."

"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."

"Chris and his crew from CityScape were nothing short of OUTSTANDING! My wife and I were blown away by their professionalism and willing to take care of the customer. It seems in a world where customer service seems to be lacking anymore, there are still people and businesses like Chris and CityScape who truly understand and appreciate what it means to provide excellent service! Chris was simply fantastic from the very beginning and his communication with my wife and I was first rate. We also noticed a real attention to detail from his crew that really was something special. We could not more pleased with CityScape. In my honest opinion if anyone is need for any services that CityScape provides such as landscapes or any concrete or stone walls, etc call Chris at CityScape and you will be very glad you did!!"

"Absolutely superb! Nick has a great eye and chose perfect Flagstone and edging for the project. We are halfway through, just waiting on the weather to permit planting. I would highly recommend this company to do your landscaping. They listen, have great ideas, excellent prices, and do a wonderful job."

"It went very well. Tom did a great job designing a patio I never would have imagined in an otherwise useless area of our yard, helping to make more of our property functional. Tom did a great job putting up with all my questions and tweaks to the material and design, and in the end we essentially went with his original proposal, highlighting his judgement and experience with these types of projects. We have a few items to follow up with, but I will likely be using his services for future projects and landscape issues."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Costs vary, but you can expect to spend between $1,000 and $4,000 to prepare land for a mobile home or before you build a house. You’ll need to clear enough land for the foundation, which may require leveling or grading, as well as removing trees, stumps, and plants. Don’t forget to plan for permits and fees and the installation of a gas line, water line, and sewer main.

The best time to lay mulch depends on the type of mulch and the reason for installing it: 

  • Summer: Adding extra mulch helps soil retain moisture and keeps weeds at bay, allowing plants to thrive. 

  • Fall: Adding mulch helps control weeds and keeps soil and roots warm during the cooler months. Aim to add a layer of mulch 2 to 4 inches deep.

  • Winter: Mulch around perennial plants to help keep them insulated.

  • Spring: Wait until the ground has thawed. Depending on the thickness, add between 1 and 4 inches of mulch to provide freeze and rain protection and enrich the soil.

If you have a large area of brush and vegetation to clear, forestry mulching may be the best option. This method works well for relatively flat areas that don’t have many large rocks or mature trees to clear. Forestry mulching is a relatively quick process that improves soil health, reduces fire risk, and leaves behind usable mulch.

Topsoil provides plants with essential nutrients, water, and air for healthy root growth. It offers a rich ecosystem of microorganisms that improve soil quality and structure. For existing lawns, ¼ inch of topdressing can enhance root growth and support new seed. For gardens, two inches of topsoil can promote strong growth and crops.

How much 4 yards of dirt will cover depends on how deep you want the soil to be. In general, a yard of dirt will cover 324 square feet for a 1-inch depth or 100 square feet for a 3-inch depth. Therefore, you can expect 4 yards to cover between 400 and 1,296 square feet if you keep your soil depth between 1 and 3 inches.
