"Overall rating 5...not 4.5! (Not sure why I was unable to rate above 4.5 on this site). They did such a great job on our first tree.....we asked them to schedule a trim on a second tree and they were able to provide service while they were here. So pleased with their work. Highly recommend. The world would be a better place if more businesses provided the quality of work that they do at affordable prices. Thank you to the three fine young professionals from Harmony Tree service!"

"Upon my request on Home Advisor, I was connected to Blas the owner. He made himself available in a short period of time to provide estimate. He was on time, very pleasant, and gave me a no nonsense and fair estimate. He was again on time to perform the service, and went above and beyond my expectations. This level of service, and professionalism is certainly appreciated."

Weed Services FAQs, answered by experts

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.

Clover lawns stand up better against dog and cat urine than traditional turfgrass. If your pets love to hang out on the lawn on a sunny day—or if you find yourself with a lot of visiting neighborhood dogs—you could save yourself from yellow and brown patches by making the switch to a clover lawn.

There are tools known as “sprinkler donuts” that are specially designed to aid in cutting the grass around your sprinkler heads by protecting them from your mower or weed whacker. You can also use a pair of hand shears to do the job manually if you’re willing to get a little dirty.

Technically, dandelions aren’t bad for your lawn, and they don’t directly kill grass. In fact, they appear in areas that are nutrient-deprived, and their long taproots can loosen the soil and bring nutrients closer to the surface. 

However, dandelions do spread quickly, and they can take over your lawn, eventually crowding out grass. This is why a healthy lawn is the best defense against dandelions.

Yes, weeds will grow through pea gravel but you can prevent this during the installation process. Install a weed barrier underneath pea gravel and swap it out every three years to keep weeds at bay.
