"ZR Landscaping transformed the mud pit that was our backyard into a beautiful patio with new landscaping and a retaining wall. The team showed up regularly and worked extremely hard each day to finish within two weeks. Communication and customer service were excellent throughout the entire process and the team left our yard and driveway clean afterwards."

"Highly recommend Pinehurst Turf Pros. They were great to work with and communicated throughout the entire process. They do meticulous work and took their time to make our project look great. Along with the great job of installing our turf, they did an outstanding job of cleaning up after the work was done and I truly appreciated the effort make things like they were before they arrived. Great people to work with and they were also great with letting our dogs join them at times so they could use the backyard. Quality work at a reasonable and fair price."

"It all started with a vision. The property I purchased for my rv was in a new development in the mountains of Murphy, NC. I had definite ideas of what I wanted and went on an extensive search for the right company to do my work. I landed on ER Walls and upon my initial meet with Art in their Murphy office an immediate connection was formed. The next day Art showed up to discuss the scope of work. Little did I know what was about to take place. The first thing he did was launch his drone to get a good overall view of the property, which he would later use to give me a complete rendering of the proposed work. We discussed the options, but what really stood out to me was the knowledge Art brings to the table. I had erosion problems and he came up with a great solution, so grading and a retaining wall was first on the list. I wanted a 35 x 10 paver patio, so again recommendations were made and a decision was made. Next I wanted a 14 x 24 deck built, the back 12 feet was to be elevated 10 feet up off the ground in the sloped area along my tree line of the property for my screen room to sit on. I wanted the feel of a tree house and once again no problem, Art had a solution and that was added to the list. Next on the list was my fire pit, but the challenge there was the elevation. I was definite where it needed to go, but the slope of the land posed challenges. Art said "no problem" and with that said the site was excavated and the fire pit was installed. I was wanting sod and landscaping which meant I needed irrigation. we discussed the layout and irrigation was added to the list. Next was grading and leveling for my rv pad along with 2 drive ways that needed to be installed. I also wanted metal edging along each of the drive ways and along the road to border the gravel and sod, which the guys did an excellent job on that as well. I was on site for the entire project watching his crew bring my vision to life. His guys are nothing less than amazing. I gave them a blank canvas and they went to work every day proving to me I made the right decision. As you can see ER Walls is truly a one stop shop, able to provide quality work, timely jobs and outstanding results. I highly recommend you connect with them, you won't be disappointed."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

How much 4 yards of dirt will cover depends on how deep you want the soil to be. In general, a yard of dirt will cover 324 square feet for a 1-inch depth or 100 square feet for a 3-inch depth. Therefore, you can expect 4 yards to cover between 400 and 1,296 square feet if you keep your soil depth between 1 and 3 inches.

If you are xeriscaping a lawn from scratch, your best bet for preparing the lawn is to work with a xeriscaping specialist in your area. The most common first step to making the transformation, however, will be to remove the turfgrass from your lawn. The subsequent steps will often include amending the soil to support new plants and installing low-drip or drip irrigation systems.

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.

You'll likely need more than great home staging to sell your home. Now is a great time to get to work on the curb appeal of your home . Hire local exterior painters and landscapers to coat the exterior of your home and bring it new life with some sprucing up.

Yes, weeds can still grow in decomposed granite. If properly compacted, it can act as a good weed suppressant, meaning you’ll only pull weeds occasionally. But no ground cover is completely weed-proof. To further prevent weeds, you can try spraying your decomposed granite with distilled white vinegar.
