"We asked Sage come over to look at our lawn where we had major drainage issue from our neighbor who is slightly uphill from us. Sage called in advance informing us that he is running late, which is fine with us, and we appreciate it for the call very much. Once he is onsite, he took a thorough look at our property, and told us his diagnosis, basically this issue is caused by the problem on the neighboring property. He said he can fix the problem for us on our side, but he suggested us to talk to the neighbor first and see if they can address the issue on their side first, because he thinks once our neighbor fix on their side, there shouldn't be any issue anymore. He even went beyond and offered to talk to our neighbor on our behalf! We were new to the neighbor hood , and didn't have much idea on how to approach our neighbor on this kind of issue. Sage's willingness to help is beyond our expectation. In the end, our neighbor did agree to fix on their side, so we didn't need to do anything. However, we have no doubt in our mind that if we ever need anything done to our lawn, Sage's service will be the only one we would consider. thank you!

"Don Liberti of D&S Landscaping made suggestions about plant variety which I used with my garden design. I now have a garden based on the plants my late wife had used around our old home in another town."

"I hired them for tree removal. Mike (the head arborist) was wonderful. They were courteous, on time, and their prices were fair and market based. Really appreciate them and I’m considering using them for routine lawn care services."

"Well, in a word, wonderfully. Charlie is professional, knowledgeable and friendly, as are his staff. They took great care to ensure that they left our property as close as possible to the condition in which they found it. They worked around existing plants, replaced a section of wood fence that had to be removed to access the area in which they built the patio and even planted grass seed where they tracks from the bobcat tore up the lawn. The finished patio looks fantastic and the pergola is mounted securely. We couldn't be happier. This company approaches each job as if it is the most important job to them. They do not change how they work according to the price of the job. They want the customer satisfied and all of the employees go to great lengths to do so. My only regret is that I didn't find Charlie when we were getting estimates for our paver pool deck that we had installed two years ago. We will definitely be calling Charlie for any future landscaping work at our house and recommending him to friends and family in the area."

"Angel s crew did a great job. They were efficient and hardworking. They worked around gardens that had landscape lighting and irrigation systems without damaging anything. My gardens had weeds and grass in them which they got out in the clean up process. All of the clean up materials were removed from the property. It was swept and pristine when they left. All the gardens are mulched in a sufficient quantity to keep the weeds out, and they are all beautifully edged. The house looks great. I would definitely hire them again."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Always begin by removing large debris, leaves, and branches from your lawn to make room for the rest of your lawn maintenance checklist. Move on to mowing, weeding, and edging in the spaces between your lawn and garden. Lastly, clean off all hardscapes, porches, and patios for a fresh and tidy appearance.

Chiggers thrive in overgrown lawns, so regular mowing will deter these annoying mites. It may not remove every single chigger, however, so follow that up with weeding and trimming any nearby trees and bushes. Pay special attention to moist, shady spots, as these are a chigger’s preferred habitat. When all else fails, sprinkle your yard with diatomaceous earth. It kills chiggers by dehydrating their exoskeletons. Diatomaceous earth is basically ground-up shells, so there’s no risk of injury to animals.

Mowing your grass regularly, especially if you’re mowing close to the ground, can help kill Johnsongrass. Frequent mowing helps limit the spread of Johnsongrass and can even deplete carbohydrate reserves in rhizomes over time. The more time you leave in between mowing, the more likely Johnsongrass is to regrow and take over your lawn. 

If you accidentally watered your grass too much during the winter months, try aerating your lawn to encourage absorption of the water into the soil and improve drainage. Dethatching your lawn can also help the solid recover from overwatering and encourage healthy root and stalk health in your grass.

While there’s no exact science to how often you should rake your leaves, a good rule of thumb to follow is to rake leaves every three to four days. However, you can rake more often or less often, depending on how quickly leaves are accumulating on your lawn.
