"I had the best experience with Matt Sinclair and his crew, they did so much work and everything was done perfectly and yard was so beautiful now they’ll come every other week to freshen up, great team I’d recommend to anyone needing landscaping professionals. A +"
"I tried Sod for my yard twice but my German Shepard killed it. I figured I give this a try and it has been two weeks so far and I feel it is one of the best things I have done. Yard looks great and the crew that put it in did an awesome job. They did a lot of work to level out the yard and to secure the turf down. Anyone is welcome to come and check this out in Lowell Ma.

"Our yard was definitely a challenge as it hadn't been cared for in a while. John did a great job - it looks so much better. I'm really glad we found him."
"We hired Emily Lannan with Attic Gardener for landscape work at our commercial facility. Very impressed with her phenomenal work! This is a well deserved 5 stars across the board!"
"Our trees look beautiful. The trimming was done perfectly to expose the lovely structure of the trees (some small, some very large), and enhance the landscape and view. Nick and his crew worked safely and efficiently, and communicated clearly every step of the way. I couldn’t have asked for more."
If you want to take your tree-planting hobby beyond your outdoor space, here are a few great ways to do it:
Encourage your neighbors to participate in the Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree City USA program, which has a four-step framework that helps communities grow and maintain their own tree cover.
Support businesses that plant trees.
Lobby your local government to plant more trees around your community.
Donate to a tree-planting charity.
The best time to plant is between spring and autumn. Springtime weather is typically mild and is when nurseries start to bloom. When the summer weather arrives and it’s hot out, it’s best to avoid planting bare-root plants, but you can still plant many in-container varieties. The first sign of fall is another great opportunity to plant biennials if you live in southern states, or a lovely vegetable garden up north.
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.
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.
Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don’t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.
