"I hired WC Fields Landscaping for several projects. I was given estimates that were very reasonable. I was advised of every step during each project, my questions were always answered with thoughtfulness and professionalism. I am hiring them for a few other, larger projects. I would highly recommend them. My new sidewalks, and new paver walkway in front looks amazing! Keith is an expert and his work crew is absolutely amazing. They worked straight through each day, did amazing work, and never left a mess for us to clean. Total professionals. Every time I called WC Fields and got an immediate response. How refreshing!"

"We had our backyard deck built by Pro Build USA , and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. The crew was professional, respectful of our property, and incredibly skilled. They showed up on time every day and kept us updated throughout the project. The finished deck is exactly what we envisioned — sturdy, well-designed, and beautiful. The attention to detail really shows, from the smooth finishes to the perfectly installed railings. It’s now our favorite spot to relax and entertain guests."

The work was done well. The crew was really polite and professional. The sidewalk looks great. All in all, it was a joy to work with this company."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Hedge plants are available in almost every size, from seedlings to fully mature, six-foot-tall shrubs. Planting smaller plants is much easier and more cost-effective. However, it can take years for the plants to reach maturity and create a full hedge. Garden centers and specialty retailers sometimes offer three to four-foot wide plants that you can simply plant next to each other for an instant full hedge.

Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don’t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.

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 size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.

Yes, you can landscape in the rain, but you should take some precautions to keep yourself and your tools safe. Avoid using electric landscaping tools during rainfall, and don’t mow, thatch, aerate, or rake in the rain, as your tools can more easily tear out roots in the loose soil. Be careful when working on wet grass, and take your time to avoid slipping. Avoid putting in new plants before a particularly bad storm, as heavy rain and strong winds can damage or uproot plants that aren’t yet established.
