"Wilber Bonilla from Greenery landscaping is in the process of landscaping our property, adding a stepping stone walkway and has built us a lovely 16'x32' interlocking paver patio. We are beyond ecstatic with his work. He has great suggestions and listens to our desires in making our property beautiful, but keeping it low maintenance. Once the weather permits he will add a stepping stone walkway and more plants/shrubs. Wilber contacted us through home advisors after we requested a patio estimate. He has been in business for himself for 2 years now but has 15 years experience. Wilber and his team are meticulous and have gone above and beyond our expectations."

"I recently hired True Authority for my lawn maintenance needs, and I must say, I’m thoroughly impressed. From the initial consultation to the final trim, their service was exemplary. The quality of their work exceeded my expectations. The precision with which they mowed, edged, and trimmed was truly impressive. My lawn has never looked greener or more manicured. Moreover, their attention to detail was remarkable. They didn’t just focus on the obvious areas but also took the time to tackle overlooked spots, ensuring a consistently pristine appearance. Lastly, their customer service was exceptional. They were courteous, responsive, and went above and beyond to accommodate my schedule and preferences."

"Extremely professional crew. I had a yard full of over grown trees and stumps. Lawn-n-order took care of me and got my yard back to where it should be. The guys work very fast, only took them 3 days when I figured it would take a week at least. The price was also very reasonable, especially for the amount of work I had them do. If you need a well rounded, professional, and fast acting tree company give these guys a call! I promise you wonâ t be disappointed!"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

Moss attaches to the ground but doesn’t have roots, so it can take four to six weeks for establishment to begin. It takes between 12 and 18 months for full coverage, and maximum thickness takes about two years. Keep your moss moist and debris-free to ensure it establishes itself well.

Yes, you can hydroseed with a garden hose, but you’ll need a tank or other large vessel for mixing the slurry, then a pump to send the slurry through the hose for spraying. Making your own hydroseeding unit can work, but it’s not usually worth the effort and supplies unless you already have them.

While you can leave roots in the ground, if you don’t want the shrub to regrow again over time, it’s best not to leave any roots behind. Ensure you remove as much of the shrub as possible, including the root ball and any main roots you can see, to prevent new growth. Some gardeners opt for using a chemical treatment to prevent the stump from growing back, but this can kill beneficial microorganisms living in your soil.

A full backyard renovation can cost between $15,000 and $50,000, depending on the scope of the project. Excavation, materials, and labor costs all contribute to the final cost of updating your outdoor spaces, and expensive features like a pool, a fence, or hardscaping carry a high price tag.

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.
