"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."

"I contacted Angie’s list on a Saturday and Sunday morning he arrived with his crew. He designed a waterfall and pond in my yard that desperately needed help. The price was reasonable and included all the supplies. He was very friendly and I am VERY pleased with the outcome. Thanks so much! I highly recommend and would hire him again for landscaping."

"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

Yes, you can landscape in the rain, but you should take some precautions to keep yourself and your tools safe. Avoid using electric landscaping tools during rainfall, and don’t mow, thatch, aerate, or rake in the rain, as your tools can more easily tear out roots in the loose soil. Be careful when working on wet grass, and take your time to avoid slipping. Avoid putting in new plants before a particularly bad storm, as heavy rain and strong winds can damage or uproot plants that aren’t yet established.

Hedge plants are available in almost every size, from seedlings to fully mature, six-foot-tall shrubs. Planting smaller plants is much easier and more cost-effective. However, it can take years for the plants to reach maturity and create a full hedge. Garden centers and specialty retailers sometimes offer three to four-foot wide plants that you can simply plant next to each other for an instant full hedge.

Finding a reputable greenhouse or nursery should start online, where you can read through customer reviews to gauge the quality of the plants sold and the customer experience. Look out for customers complaining about plants dying shortly after purchase, and try to choose a greenhouse known for hiring employees who are able to explain how to care for the plants you purchase. It’s also a good idea to head to a few greenhouses to see the selection they offer and make sure they carry the plants or trees you’re looking for.

If you choose to leave gaps between your pavers, you can grow some ground cover plants between them for an organic feel. Look for plants such as creeping thyme, dymondia, jewel mint of Corsica, or clover.

Yes, such as sod installation and erosion control for comprehensive site improvement.
