"In recent months, it has been difficult to get home repair men and yard workers to actually show up when they said they would., or even return my calls. Garden Zest Landscaping returned my call, came on the day and time they promised, and gave me a reasonable quote. They did the work immediately, and the trees and shrubs looked great. They were pleasant to work with, delightful in fact. Ià ¢à  à  ll definitely be calling them again."

"Their work is beautiful. We had edgers put in around the whole area and it looks great. The corners are perfectly mitered and the whole area is level. They did the job quickly and were spotless when they finished. Also, they were responsive to my calls and requests."

"Dakota, the owner is awesome. What can I say? He answers the phone. He responds to texts. He shows up. He does a great job. And is generally just very nice guy. I need a Landscaper last year very late in the season. I think it was mid May or so. I was very late to the game. Grasshopper was the only one to respond and the only one who said â yeah we can do itâ . Very impressive and I highly recommend this company."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

It is possible to DIY complete hardscaping projects, but in most cases, hiring a professional is best to get the job done correctly. Hardscaping—including installing patios, decks, retaining walls, walkways, and water features—is challenging and time-consuming, so the money you spend on a professional is typically worth it. Not only will the quality be better, but you could avoid problems that come along with a lack of hardscaping experience, like drainage issues that can lead to costly foundation damage and leaks in your home.

Before you begin landscaping with rocks, put down a weed barrier or landscape fabric to prevent pesky weeds from poking through. 

The average cost for landscaping is around $3,500, but prices can range from as low as $200 for simple DIY projects to $14,000 or more for extensive work. Several factors influence the final price, including your geographic location, yard size, project scope, chosen materials, site preparation, and the type of landscaping involved. Professional landscaper labor costs typically range from $50 to $100 per hour.

For a smaller budget, you can focus on softscaping projects like adding mulch, flowers, and shrubs, which might only cost a few hundred dollars if you do the work yourself. A budget of around $5,000 could cover projects like a simple patio, new plants and tree trimming, or a water feature. More extensive hardscaping projects, such as pergolas, patios, and walkways, can push the budget to $14,000 or more. For example, a flower bed installation averages between $800 and $3,000, while landscape lighting installation can cost from $2,000 to $6,000.

If shade is a priority for you, then panting elm trees is a fine choice. A full mature elm tree has enough aesthetic appeal for some folks that it could add value to your home. 

That said, never plant elm trees too close to your home, sewer line, or sidewalks, as their roots can damage these, which can lead to costly repairs.

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.
