"Very pleased with all the grading and excavation and clearing that was done behind my house. I explained to Jason that I needed my yard to be more level due to I could not get my lawnmower up the hill. He discussed with me all options that would resolve the problem. He went over and beyond to resolve the issue. I highly recommend him and would use him again."

"Completed our shoreline stabilization on Lake Blueridge. There is no access for heavy equipment through our property so every thing can by barge on the lake, all stone and equipment! No disruption to our landscaping. Phil and Steve moved the huge bolder with escalators in precision. It was fun to watch! They were friendly and respectful. Art worked hard to understand what we wanted and the clearly communicated it to team. Such a relief to have the shoreline protected and with no disruption to our property! They are conscientious and use a lot of technology to determine the right way to do the project. They care and want to do it right. They have our recommendation."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

Many ways to landscape a steep slope on a budget exist. Avoiding expensive retaining wall construction is the first step. Consider creating a rocky slope with boulders or large stones, or think about planting perennials that return every year with a single investment. Transplanting small trees from elsewhere on your property is also possible and can help to stabilize steep slopes without purchasing new ones. 

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.

Landscape design can be a simple service that includes a drawing or visual representation of how your yard can be set up and optimized for your intended purposes. But it can also include all of the manual labor to make your vision a reality. When you speak with your landscape designer, ensure everyone understands the specific services you want. Some add-on services may include the following:

  • Sourcing and delivery of raw materials

  • Professional installation of features, including pergolas, decks, and pathways

  • Drainage system design

  • Recommendations for specific plants and trees

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.
