"I had a very prompt response from WC Fields owner Keith. He came to my home later that same day. Attentively listened to the work I was interested in having done, which was to reset my front walkway pavers. He offered some great suggestions and options to better the walkway. He explained that he would have his office send me a detailed quote later that evening, which I did receive as he committed to. It was a very reasonable estimate compared to another one I had received a number of months ago. He was able to have one of his teams begin the work the very next day. The work took 1-1/2 days due to a slight rain delay. The walkway looks BEAUTIFUL! I am so pleased with how the walkway turned out! His team was very courteous and professional, and did such excellent work. I would highly recommend Keith and the WC Fields Landscaping team for any of their services! Thank you - Bonnie"

"Home Line replaced two walkways and my driveway with pavers. Incredible job, and they were done in 2 days. They moved dirt and sod from the excavation of the driveway so that I could repurpose it elsewhere. Final product looks amazing. Nothing but compliments from my neighbors. Highly recommend."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can put topsoil over sand to encourage grass growth. The topsoil will help to improve water retention and promote grass roots’ development, making it a recommended step of the seeding process. Adding a layer of topsoil will provide additional nutrients to the sandy soil, helping the grass grow and remain healthy through many seasons.

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.

Moss attaches to the ground but doesn’t have roots, so it can take four to six weeks for establishment to begin. It takes between 12 and 18 months for full coverage, and maximum thickness takes about two years. Keep your moss moist and debris-free to ensure it establishes itself well.

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.

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.
