Customers say: Quality work

"It was very humid/hot that day but the owner worked alongside his men to provide constant guidance. Before he began he showed me several pictures of his work and I was therefore able to see what he was capable of. We then discussed in detail what I wanted and he made suggestions based on the size of my yard, what type of plants I wanted and would the design fit in with my neighborhood. At no time was I made to feel stupid about what I wanted. To the contrary he welcomed my input. When finished my yard looked fantastic! I was very pleased with how it turned out and also pleased that he had incorporated some of my ideas. He finally made some suggestions for future changes to my yard. I shared these with my husband who was very enthusiastic. Therefore I would rate the completed work as excellent and can hopefully hire him again soon to have him add in some of his suggestions. Mr Nunez was professional, polite and easy to talk to."

"We had a wonderful experience with Charlie & Sons Construction & Landscaping Inc.! Carlos the owner was very professional and knowledgable. His workers were efficient and did an excellent job. He worked with us every step of the way to make sure our patio was exactly how we wanted it. Carlos also never tried to upsell us on a bigger patio and was perfectly willing to create the original smaller sized one we had discussed at the beginning. Once we realized that we wouldn't have been happy with that size, Carlos worked with us on the price which we feel was a great deal for the size we settled on. When all the work was finished we were amazed at how perfect the patio looked and were very happy we increased its overall size. He also tore up our old sidewalk on the side of the house and installed the same pavers which looks amazing. The only problem (which became a bonus) came when we noticed that his machine ended up ripping up a couple feet at the end of our driveway near the house. Carlos came to us immediately and apologized, and then said he would put the pavers in that area to replace the broken driveway. This ended up looking even better than it did previously as it tied in perfectly with the new sidewalk and the patio. We would definitely recommend Charlie & Sons Construction & Landscaping Inc. to everyone and plan on having them do more work for us in the near future!"

"We hired Joe to clean up and help redesign our front yard, which was full of overgrown and misshapen bushes and shrubs. Iâ d been having a hard time finding a landscaper to follow through on even just giving an estimate, but Joe was very responsive from start to finish. Our yard is still a work in progress, but it already looks a million times better with what Joe has done so far. We wonâ t hesitate to use him again as we tackle other landscaping projects down the road."

"Outstanding work on my overgrown yard!I called for a major spring reset because my lawn was buried under thick leaves, overgrown shrubs, and invasive weeds. The crew arrived right on time and worked incredibly fast. They cleared out every piece of debris, trimmed the bushes perfectly, and left the property looking immaculate. Their pricing was completely transparent with no hidden fees, and the team was professional from start to finish. I will absolutely hire them again for regular maintenance and highly recommend them to anyone needing a reliable yard cleanup!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Yes, adding a pergola can add value to your home and provides an excellent selling point for potential buyers who enjoy outdoor living. Pergolas may have a 50% to 80% return on investment. To add more value, choose a structure made from durable, long-lasting materials and have it professionally installed. Extra features like a motorized roof, smart louvers, and heaters or misters may also give you a better return on investment.

The best way to landscape your front yard on a budget is to invest in hiring a professional for hardscaping—things like upgrading walkways, redoing driveways, and installing partitions around garden beds. You can often do the softscaping yourself—think laying down mulch, caring for your lawn, removing weeds, and planting flowers and shrubs. It’s also almost always worthwhile to pay a professional for routine yard maintenance, as this dramatically improves curb appeal and delivers above 100% ROI in most cases.

There are two main times of year to apply mulch: mid to late spring and late fall. Spreading mulch in mid to late spring helps protect new seedlings as the soil warms up. It's best to wait until temperatures are steady, as mulching too early in the spring can slow down the soil's warming process and hinder plant growth. Fall mulching is also beneficial, as it insulates the soil and helps regulate its temperature when the first frosts arrive.

It is for the purpose of protecting them from hail because you’ll be removing it soon after the threat is over. However, plastic or vinyl tarps aren’t recommended as a long-term way of protecting your plants from frost because they’ll trap too much moisture inside, which is actually not a good thing for your plants. But in the short term, it’s fine to use even an overturned garbage can to protect a plant from hail.

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.
