"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

Timing is key when determining the best time to hydroseed your lawn. It’s best to hydroseed in the spring or fall due to the already wet conditions of your lawn and the more mild temperatures. 

Your local pro will also offer watering and fertilizer instructions for the months after your application. Make sure you will be available to water it consistently, especially in the first two to three weeks for best results.

Depending on the size of the river rock and the density of your soil, add woven landscape fabric or sand under river rock. The extra layer will ensure your river rock sits evenly and doesn't create puddles or uneven areas throughout the design. In some cases, nothing is necessary beneath river rock, but be sure to speak with a landscaper to keep your landscaping looking sharp.

It is generally not recommended to put topsoil over new grass seed. A thick layer can suffocate the seedlings by preventing sunlight, water, and oxygen from reaching them. The seeds only need about a quarter-inch of soil for protection. If you want to protect the seeds, a better alternative is to apply a thin layer of organic matter, such as straw mulch or hay.

The main benefit of topsoil is that it enriches the soil with nutrients that help your plants and garden grow at a healthy rate. Topsoil improves how well your soil drains water and gives it a more fertile texture, so that not only do you get better planting, but weeding is also much easier.

You should use mulch because it protects garden soil in a few key ways. This extra layer between the ground and the elements protects against erosion, helps your soil maintain moisture, regulates changes in temperature, adds nutrients as it decomposes, and keeps weeds at bay.
