"Mr. Santos came out to the house to look at several landscaping projects that I had going on. He provided a competitive quote for the entire project and he offered to help me remove some branches off a tree in the front yard on the spot. He pruned the dead part of the tree and nicely stacked up the sticks and limb for the city to pick up. Very kind gentlemen and I plan to hire him again."

"I couldn't be more thrilled with the transformation of my lawn, thanks to The Earthscape Company! From start to finish, Ryan and his team demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a genuine commitment to quality. They completely redid my lawn, turning it from a patchy mess into a lush, green oasis. The installation of the irrigation system was seamless and has been a game-changer, ensuring my lawn stays healthy with minimal effort on my part. The crew was punctual, respectful, and left the site immaculate each day. They took the time to explain the entire process, offered valuable advice on lawn care, and were incredibly responsive to any questions I had. The attention to detail and the pride they take in their work is evident in every square foot of my lawn. If you're looking for a company that combines top-notch service with outstanding results, look no further than The Earthscape Company. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of landscaping services. Thank you for bringing my yard to life!"

"Our Hardscapes project consisted of construction of a concrete curb and paver strip along the front street side portion of our lawn followed by fescue sod in the front. Also installed were a large decorative stone wall and smaller stone wall in the front garden. Additionally, a short stone wall was constructed in the back garden. Entire project moved along smoothly & in impressive condensed time frame. We are thrilled with the aesthetics of the completed project, the fact that the labor crews have been with Hardscapes for a significant time and are treated like family, and also something that is increasingly rare in today’s hurried environment-good communication regarding weather delays, anticipated start dates, prompt response to questions & project design tweaks. It has been a pleasure working with Adam Simpson & the Hardscapes group."

Customers say: True professional

"We have hired George Daniels and his son at New Beginings Landscaping to do a lot of work for us over the past 15 years. They do outstanding work, are always on time and always go above and beyond to provide outstanding customer service. They recently planted 4 10 foot Nellie Stevens Hollies, 2 Camellias, a number of encore azaleas as well as a number of foundation plantings around our new patio. They also remulched our backyard natural areas. I would not hire anyone else for landscaping work. They are a pleasure to work with and never disappoint.

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

The best time to plant a privet hedge is autumn, ideally October or early November. Fall is the best time to plant privet hedges because young plants need plenty of water to jump-start their growth, and it typically rains more during this season. However, you can also successfully plant privets in the spring.

The best size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.

If you live in an area with heavy rain or you like the idea of an extra layer of cushion under your feet, you may want to consider adding additional layers under your grass. There are pads that are purely for comfort and ones that can help accelerate drainage for those heavy rains.

Lakefront landscaping offers benefits such as enhancing aesthetic appeal, increasing property value, supporting ecological balance, and providing recreational opportunities while preserving the shoreline's natural beauty.

By definition, gardeners are experts at designing and maintaining outdoor gardens. Their job duties extend far beyond choosing the right plants for the area, which in itself is a job—they also help maintain the health and well-being of the plants. Gardeners work independently or for landscapers, nurseries, or horticulture design companies.
