"I reached out to him to inquire about a couple of stumps that needed removed. He came out super fast, gave a very reasonable quote. After we agreed on the price, he came out and made super quick work of the three stumps.
Will definitely be hiring again when I have more stumps that need removed."
"I think they treated the wrong lawn. The note they sent me via text message referenced trees and shrubs in my yard, I have none. They also did not leave a yard marker showing they had been there. Otherwise, this would have been a 5 star review."
"Great husband and wife team. What started as one project turned into multiple projects. They were there working hard everyday until the job was done. Everything looks fantastic. Just the facelift my little house needed!!"

"Backwoods Landscaping did an excellent job at my house. I had them rework and improve several planting beds. Their rates are extremely affordable. They showed up on time and got straight to work. They offered to do additional work that I had forgotten to ask them do. They are conscientious and very hardworking. I was so impressed that no other landscaping company will be considered for future projects at my house. They will do any and all of my work from now on. I suggest anyone looking for lawn or landscaping work give these guys a call. I'm sure you'll be as impressed as I am."
"Jake and his crew are very fast, professional, and reliable! With very fair prices for lawn care needs, tried a few different company’s but no one compared to Living Greens quality and price."
"Clover lawn called me within 24 hours of the request. They communicated regularly with me, gave me a very reasonable estimate and stayed in touch. The job was completed above and beyond expectations, they even did a final mow after the leaves were removed - even though it wasn't part of the original estimate, without an additional charge. The yard, flower beds and driveway were immaculate. Will use again, they are excellent and very nice people."
Land clearing costs an average of $3,743, but prices can range anywhere from $400 to $15,000, depending on the size of the land you need cleared, how dense the coverage is, and what needs to be removed. Expect prices toward the lower end if your professional just needs to mulch some plants and shrubs on a small patch of land, and expect prices to move toward the higher end for things like taking down a large number of trees and removing landscaping boulders.
We always recommend wearing a protective mask when blowing leaves (as well as goggles if possible). Blowing leaves creates a lot of dust, and in many cases that dust contains a bunch of allergens that can make those sensitive very miserable. Even worse, moldy leaves can contain fungi and bacteria that could make humans as animals very sick. Mask up before starting your leaf project, and if anyone is helping you collect the leaves it’s a good idea if they wear a mask, too.
For minor unevenness, you don't necessarily need to remove grass before leveling. You can apply a topdressing mixture to fill in low areas and even out the surface. However, for more significant unevenness or deep depressions, it might be necessary to temporarily remove the grass to ensure proper leveling and soil compaction. After filling and leveling, you can replace the grass or consider reseeding the area.
Clearing 1 acre of land takes anywhere from two to 12 hours for a professional team, depending on what they’re removing. The amount of time needed to complete the project depends on the size of your acreage, the land’s condition, the size of the crew completing the work, and what type of equipment they’re using. Smaller projects normally take a few hours, while larger projects may require one or two full workdays.
Foxtail grass is not native to the United States, so it is considered an invasive plant. Giant foxtail originated in eastern Asia, Green foxtail is native to Europe, and Yellow foxtail is native to Eurasia. This grass variety is one of many common invasive plant species that you should keep out of your yard and garden beds as much as possible.
