What should I consider when deciding to build an in-ground pool?

• <div><p>There are many factors to consider when building an in-ground concrete pool. This includes the pool’s primary purpose (relaxation or exercise) if you live in a warm or cold climate (how often it’ll be used), and if you have the budget for chemical treatments and pool maintenance. In-ground pools are often more costly than aboveground pools, but they’re considered more luxurious and hold more value.</p></div>

How much does it cost to have a tree planted?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-do-trees-cost.htm">cost to plant a small tree</a> or sapling is between <b>$100 and $300</b> 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 <b>$1,000</b> for those.</p></div>

What do professional gardeners do?

• <div><p>By definition, gardeners are experts at designing and maintaining outdoor gardens. Their job duties extend far beyond choosing the right plants for the area, which in itself is a job—they also help maintain the health and well-being of the plants. Gardeners work independently or for landscapers, nurseries, or horticulture design companies. </p></div>

Q: What should you do with areas of grass that won't grow?

• <div><p>There are several reasons <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-dead-grass-your-lawn-inevitable.htm">your grass may be dying</a> 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.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: Does monkey grass need sun or shade?

• <div><p>Monkey grass isn&rsquo;t too picky when it comes to light conditions: It needs sun but prefers partial shade. While it can tolerate full sun, it thrives in environments with partial shade (around four to six hours of sunlight per day). The black mondo grass variety is the most tolerant of heat from direct sunlight.</p></div>

They did a good job. Trees were removed with little or no damage to surrounding landscape. They cleaned up well. They were nice to work with. We would call them again if we needed this type of work in the future.
