"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."

"Elijah did fantastic work on my property here in Asheville, North Carolina. A huge tree fell at the edge of my property during Hurricane Helene a few months ago and left a giant crater on my property where the root ball went into the air. Elijah has been out there every day this week, even in the snow, cutting down the 9 foot tall root ball and backfilling with more than 7 tons of dirt all hand-carted by wheelbarrow and carts. He works random hours but came back even after dark and worked well into the night by contractor lights on multiple days. He was very nice and considerate also, and I truly appreciate his work ethic. I will absolutely hire him again for more landscaping that I need."

"Nor and his crew were excellent. They were friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. They worked diligently and they were fast. They were on time, and cleaned up thoroughly. The backfill project looks great. I highly recommend Nava Landscaping! I will definitely use their services again."

"Pat, Jim, and his team were a pleasure to work with. Jim designed our space and designed it with all of the features we wanted. Each work day, they arrived to the job site on time and worked **** ** our job. After the job was completed, Jim came by our home to check the patio after it had rained to make sure there weren't any spots that needed to be fixed. We never had any issues during the construction and would strongly recommend them to everyone. They stand behind their work and do a great job."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

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.

A rock garden can last indefinitely as long as you properly maintain it. Whether solely made of rocks or with greenery incorporated, they generally last a while, though it may vary based on your climate.

The best landscape edging tool depends on you and your needs. For homeowners who are looking for a budget-friendly edging material, plastic might be the best option for them. However, homeowners who want a low-maintenance option might opt for concrete or brick. Since there are loads of gardening edging ideas, decide what factors (maintenance, style, or budget) are most important to you to help you narrow your choices.

Yes, if you are using rocks to form a pathway or driveway, it’s a good idea to first install landscape fabric before layering in your rocks. Landscape fabric is your first line of defense against unwanted grass and weeds on your rocky surface.

Pavers are one of the most affordable methods of creating an elevated outdoor space. Gravel is an equally affordable alternative. If your budget permits, you can look into building a permeable driveway to ensure proper drainage. Grid pavers, pervious concrete, brick, and brick pavement are all effective materials. Permeable driveways are great options, especially if you live in an area with heavy rainstorms.
