"From the beginning they were very courteous and professional. The project was to cut into the hill in back of house to make a level spot for a pool. I needed a 22'x14' flat spot. They built a wall 22'x5' tall with 14' wing walls. Level in the middle. Cleaned up nicely. Sod around the walls and grass seed Under hay where they smashed down yard. Hay blanket in flat area. Very pleased. Highly recommend LA Landscaping !"

"Prior lawn service did not show up this year. By the time I found out, my yard should have been mowed at least twice. Josh with Lawn View called me within minutes. He was out the next day to mow and trim. As high as the grass was prior to Lawn View's service, the yard looked great after Lawn View's service. Grass was evenly cut with virtually no cut grass lumped laying on top; so no worry about cut grass killing my lawn!"

"We couldn?t be happier with our new privacy fence! From start to finish, the installation was smooth, professional, and right on schedule. The crew was knowledgeable, friendly, and paid close attention to detail?everything is straight and solid. Very competitive on price. We received several estimates and Branched Out was prompt and priced within our budget. Tyler took the time to answer our questions and left the property clean when they were done. The fence has completely transformed our yard. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top-notch wooden fence installation!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The average cost for landscaping is around $3,500, but prices can range from as low as $200 for simple DIY projects to $14,000 or more for extensive work. Several factors influence the final price, including your geographic location, yard size, project scope, chosen materials, site preparation, and the type of landscaping involved. Professional landscaper labor costs typically range from $50 to $100 per hour.

For a smaller budget, you can focus on softscaping projects like adding mulch, flowers, and shrubs, which might only cost a few hundred dollars if you do the work yourself. A budget of around $5,000 could cover projects like a simple patio, new plants and tree trimming, or a water feature. More extensive hardscaping projects, such as pergolas, patios, and walkways, can push the budget to $14,000 or more. For example, a flower bed installation averages between $800 and $3,000, while landscape lighting installation can cost from $2,000 to $6,000.

Buying plants from a nursery is one thing, but ensuring that they are properly planted is another. While you might not need to hire a landscaper for every plant that you buy from a nursery, it’s a great idea to have their expertise and experience to plant larger items, like burlapped trees or specialty plants like rose bushes. Even better, before making a trip to a nursery to buy new plants, consult a local landscaper to test your soil for pH levels, soil texture, and phosphorus and potassium levels to help determine the best plants for your area.

If you want to take your tree-planting hobby beyond your outdoor space, here are a few great ways to do it:

  • Encourage your neighbors to participate in the Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree City USA program, which has a four-step framework that helps communities grow and maintain their own tree cover.

  • Support businesses that plant trees. 

  • Lobby your local government to plant more trees around your community.

  • Donate to a tree-planting charity.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

The best size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.
