"Leon and the team from TrueCare Landscaping did a fantastic job preparing and mulching our yard! From start to finish, they were professional, efficient, and incredibly detail-oriented. Leon made 2 trips to our yard to confirm our needs. He was flexible with us as our timeline shifted. The yard looks amazing — clean, fresh, and beautifully finished. They took the time to make sure everything was done right, and cleaned up so well it’s hard to tell they were here. Highly recommend Leon and TrueCare Landscaping."

"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."

"My wife and I hired Buenemann Landscaping to tear out our old concrete slab patio and railroad tie retaining wall. We now have a beautiful paver patio and retaining wall. The transformation is amazing, we couldn't be happier. Jordan the owner was a pleasure to work with. He is very knowledgeable and was here everyday working side by side with his crew getting the job done in the time he said it would take. His attention to detail and work ethic would be hard to match. I would recommend him to anyone without hesitation."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, it is possible to add too little mulch. Anything less than 1 inch will likely result in too little coverage around your plants, allowing weeds to grow through and minimizing the positive effects that a deeper bed of mulch would have, like maintaining proper soil moisture and insulating the ground.

Common features in lakefront landscaping projects include native and water-tolerant plants, stone paths, docks or piers, seating areas, and erosion control solutions to create a harmonious integration with the waterfront setting.

The soil around your foundation should slope down and away from your home, not toward it. If the grading drops the farther you are from your home, you can enhance the slope by removing more soil. Mark off a few feet from your house and dig up some of this soil. Regrading around your fountain should encourage water to flow away from your home and not collect or “pond.”

Surface-level tree roots might only pose a small threat, such as being a tripping hazard or obstacle when you mow your lawn. But if mature tree roots start growing in the direction of your home’s foundation or plumbing system, it could be a real problem. Cutting small tree roots out before they grow too large can keep your home safe without removing the whole tree.

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.
