"I had contacted other contractors to come out and give me a quote for my project but I kept getting stood up. They came and quoted me on a Sunday no less and immediately put me on the books. They showed up on time and were polite and courteous. They equipment left some ruts in my yard but they showed up after they completed the job and fixed the ruts. They went above and beyond for me without asking and were super easy to work with. I will definitely be calling them first for any future concrete work I'll need in the future and refer any family and friends to them."

"They immediately came out and gave me a quote, which was very fair. We discussed power washing the driveway and sidewalk to my front door. They came out earlier than expected and did a phenomenal job! They also cleaned my front porch and all of my landscape blocks. They went above and beyond, in my book! I'll definitely hire them again soon, to clean my siding."

"Anyone looking for concrete work, hire John. He has years of knowledge and expertise, and that was evident in his craftsmanship. I had him build a 15x20ft patio with stairs, and it looks beautiful. I couldn't be happier. He got it done in a timely manner, and did exactly what he said he was going to do. His finishing was also excellent. He filled in all the tiny holes and blended the steps together seamlessly with the pad. Overall, my spouse and I are extremely satisfied. I would hire him again for any future concrete work. Thank you!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

It’s usually best to buy plants from a local greenhouse or nursery yourself, but landscapers are also a reliable option. First, you can choose exactly what plants you want based on their appearance rather than relying on your landscaper to choose. Additionally, while it’s more time-consuming to go buy the plants yourself, you’ll often save money because landscapers charge for delivery and may upcharge the plants. You can also speak to a professional at a nursery to ensure you understand how to care for your plants and get the most long-term value.

Landscaping prices are sometimes negotiable, but it depends on the professional with whom you’re working. In most cases, you’ll have a better chance of negotiating prices down the more work you have done. Your pro might be willing to discount labor if they’re guaranteed a large job. You can also ask your landscaper to recommend more affordable materials that will still bring your vision to life to save.

In addition to aloe vera and lilac, other effective humidity-reducing plants include peace lilies, Boston ferns, English ivy, spider plants, and lucky bamboo. These plants thrive in humid environments and can naturally lower moisture levels. Place them in areas prone to dampness for the best results.

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.

The best time to plant a privet hedge is autumn, ideally October or early November. Fall is the best time to plant privet hedges because young plants need plenty of water to jump-start their growth, and it typically rains more during this season. However, you can also successfully plant privets in the spring.
