"Charles and Lorenzo are first-rate, knowledgeable, hard-working professionals. We will have them taking care of our landscaping needs from now on. Charles and Lorenzo were friendly, courteous, and above all professional and efficient. I was very impressed in that after the job had been completed they were more than happy to offer suggestions and advice on how to maintain and take care of minor concerns not associated with the original agreement - talk about establishing goodwill with their clients. Because of the above-mentioned and the overall excellent quality of the work, I will be using High Country Landscaping on a permanent basis."

"Alex is very thorough and takes pride in his work. He maintains my yards to keep them looking as good as possible. I would definitely recommend him to do anything related to landscaping and irrigation systems. Alex shows up for every job too, not just his hired help. That makes a difference to me."

"Cesar showed up and started the work with this team within two hours of starting the project. Completed removal of two trees and made the yard look pristine as if that was the state within 3 hours. I can't imagine any other team getting this project done this efficiently. I highly recommend Cesar!!!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

When planting, it's best to leave several feet between a house and a juniper bush. Many juniper varieties will become quite bushy and require space to grow. Juniper branches that come into contact with siding can damage the home's exterior over time. Also, some juniper bushes have aggressive roots that can put pressure on a home's foundation or basement walls. 

By definition, gardeners are experts at designing and maintaining outdoor gardens. Their job duties extend far beyond choosing the right plants for the area, which in itself is a job—they also help maintain the health and well-being of the plants. Gardeners work independently or for landscapers, nurseries, or horticulture design companies.

Consulting your local university extension, Audubon society, or municipal urban forestry program are all good ideas when choosing a tree to plant. You can also ask an arborist or a knowledgeable landscaping company for advice on good trees to plant.

Yes, you can absolutely transplant bushes instead of removing them completely. The success depends on the size of the bushes, their age, and the transplanting season. Ideally, transplant during the dormant season (late fall or winter). Dig out the entire root system in one piece, fill the new hole with fresh soil and mulch, and water thoroughly after planting.

The average cost for landscaping is around $3,500, but prices can range from as low as $200 for simple DIY projects to $14,000 or more for extensive work. Several factors influence the final price, including your geographic location, yard size, project scope, chosen materials, site preparation, and the type of landscaping involved. Professional landscaper labor costs typically range from $50 to $100 per hour.

For a smaller budget, you can focus on softscaping projects like adding mulch, flowers, and shrubs, which might only cost a few hundred dollars if you do the work yourself. A budget of around $5,000 could cover projects like a simple patio, new plants and tree trimming, or a water feature. More extensive hardscaping projects, such as pergolas, patios, and walkways, can push the budget to $14,000 or more. For example, a flower bed installation averages between $800 and $3,000, while landscape lighting installation can cost from $2,000 to $6,000.
