"Village Landscaping and Contracting did an exceptional job with the landscaping and masonry project at my home. They installed a French drain, regraded a paved area, and repaired masonry work around the house, all with impressive efficiency and professionalism. The team worked quickly yet thoroughly, ensuring a high standard of quality in every detail. Their quote was fair and reasonable. I highly recommend Village Landscaping and Contracting for anyone looking for reliable, high-quality landscaping services at a reasonable pricing."

"Ardian and his team did an excellent job and went a step above to ensure that the two projects had been done correctly. The retaining wall was built in under a week and the walk ways in the yard were done to our complete satisfaction within a couple of days. Thank you Ardian!"

Customers say: Quality work

"They are not local to my area. Please, hire local. And this is for Angi: Try not to recommend contractors who are a significant distance away, in this case around 80 miles (and 2 states) away. Great website, appears to be professionally designed and maintained, I like what they do (judging from the content in the website) but I am outside their service area. I don't live in that area. If I owned a home or apartment in that area, I would hire them."

"Classical Pavers did a beautiful job replacing my front walkway! It was not a straightforward project because it was built on a steep slope with a curve. The owner Thiago, who oversees the project, was a pleasure to work with -- never used any pressure tactics, was very responsive to any questions, and gave a fair price. The two craftsmen who did the work were amazing! They arrived promptly every day, worked extremely hard, and did absolutely beautiful work. They hauled away all the old materials and tidied everything up when the job was done. We definitely would hire them again for a future project and highly recommend them."

"It has been over a year since Tommy completely transformed our back yard. He rebuilt and added to a huge 75' x 10' retaining wall, then put in a gorgeous paver patio, front steps, and a walking path. Finally he stuccoed the entire lower level of our house. This was a massive project that he and his crew completed ahead of schedule. Tommy and his crew were always on time and worked diligently all day long, no matter how terrible the weather was. We trusted him with all his suggestions and advice, and he proved to be extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of this multi-faceted project. The end result of his hard work exceeded our very high expectations. If you are looking for someone who provides top-notch work and is a pleasure to deal with every day, choose Masonry by Tommy based in Lodi, NJ. They will leave you as impressed and grateful as we are!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

A scattering of leaves won’t pose a problem through the winter, but a thicker layer of leaves may not decompose before the first frost and can instead weigh down your grass and harbor mold or fungi. A thick layer of leaves also cuts off light and air that grass needs to grow. That’s why we suggest removing thick leaf layers within several days if possible. If your lawn goes dormant over the winter and snow has already caught up with you, then remove the leaves in early spring before your grass-growing season starts so your lawn can thrive.

Yes, you can hydroseed with a garden hose, but you’ll need a tank or other large vessel for mixing the slurry, then a pump to send the slurry through the hose for spraying. Making your own hydroseeding unit can work, but it’s not usually worth the effort and supplies unless you already have them.

Most experts recommend a quarter-inch layer of compost for best results, and you will need about .77 cubic yards of material per 1,000 square feet. To measure how much compost to use, take the square footage of your yard and multiply it by .77, then divide that number by 1,000.

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

Environmental considerations include native plant selection, wildlife habitation, erosion prevention measures, and managing water runoff patterns to protect the lakefront ecosystem.
