"Hired Kyle O?Hara to build a pool deck. Told us he was doing us a favor and giving us a reduced rate because my husband is a disabled veteran. Hired & paid $3,200 July 2024. As of June 2025 the deck was not finished. Building inspector came and informed us that the entire structure needed to come down. Structure was unsafe and poorly built. Kyle agreed to refund our $3,200. As of today, he has refunded only $1,200 but he was sure to come pickup all the building supplies, some of which he told us he got donated due to others wanting to help because my husband is a disabled veteran. We have obtained a judgment against him through local small claims court. Our next step is to file for garnishment through the county courts. Do not hire this guy, very unprofessional, always has an excuse as to why he doesn?t show up when he says he will. Does not pay attention to detail, did not build as asked and when we questioned it, he claimed we changed things. "

Full Landscaping Service, Specialize in Retaining Wall Design and Installation, New Bed Design, and All Concrete Flatwork

"They came once when we had our first snow - after midnight. When I called the owners to suggest that was not acceptable in the neighborhood, I was told they couldn't control what their contracted workers did!! In January, when we had a foot of snow, nobody came at all. I called several times and left messages. They were total no shows. I had paid for the entire season."

Rototilling questions, answered by experts

Yard grading is a key component of proper drainage because runoff naturally moves with respect to gravity. If you have low spots in your yard, rain and snowmelt will settle there and oversaturate the soil, promoting root rot and fungal growth. If the low spots are near your home’s foundation, you could even end up with foundation leaks or structural damage due to poor yard grading.

Pea gravel is hands down a top pick for managing landscape drainage.  These small stones allow water to flow through easily by creating natural gaps that promote runoff. Beyond functionality, pea gravel also offers visual versatility. Homeowners will find a range of earthy tones like gray, brown, blue, and even red, making it easy to match with different outdoor styles and plantings.

For minor unevenness, you don't necessarily need to remove grass before leveling. You can apply a topdressing mixture to fill in low areas and even out the surface. However, for more significant unevenness or deep depressions, it might be necessary to temporarily remove the grass to ensure proper leveling and soil compaction. After filling and leveling, you can replace the grass or consider reseeding the area.

You should exercise care when deciding how to landscape over a leach field for your septic system. You typically want lightweight materials that won’t damage the drain field’s perforated pipes. When adding plants to the area, select plants with shallow roots, such as grass or flower gardens. Trees with deep roots could damage the pipes in the field.

Yes, rototilling has many benefits. Rototilling is a great way to aerate the soil in your garden, introduce fertilizer, and remove weeds from your soil to prep it for planting, so it is very often a worthwhile expense. You can get by without rototilling if you’re willing to use manual tools, but the work will take much longer and is very labor-intensive. If you’re looking to prepare your garden for planting or your soil for new grass growth, rototilling is relatively inexpensive and almost always worth the money.
