"I recently hired Alonso to install a French drain in my backyard, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the work. He and his team were fantastic, completing the job in just two days. They made sure everything was working efficiently before they left, and followed up several days later. I've now hired them for regular yard maintenance. Highly recommend!"

"I am very happy with the work Marvin and his assistant did on my property. My lawn mower broke down and my property was looking miserable. He had surveyed the work and I also sent him pictures prior to working and the work was completed beautifully. Marvin really aims to please and works well with his assistant. Since then I have hired his landscaping company to mow my lawn weekly. Marvin and his assistant are very kind and patient. I would definitely hire Marvin Landscaping to make your yard your favorite yard because mine has become my favorite yard. I wish I could post the then and now pics but it only takes a max file of 5MB. I wanted to show how Marvin turned 2 creepy large and tall bushes and shaped them beautifully. And his assistant did a wonderful job lawn mowing and blowing the .5 acres clean. And I must add its not easy due to uneven land and some hills."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

The duration of a lakefront landscaping project is determined by its scope, environmental conditions, and weather impacts. It often takes several weeks to a few months to complete.

The best type of rock for landscaping depends on your specific project and needs, as different rocks are suited for different applications. For covering large areas or creating an affordable driveway, consider gravel, but note that it can wash away in flowing water. For water features, river rocks are a good option. Flagstone and cobblestone are ideal for aesthetically pleasing patios and walkways. If you are building a stone wall, fieldstone or small boulders are up to the task. Large boulders and landscape rocks work well as statement pieces, to fill empty space, or to indicate boundaries, but be mindful that they can overwhelm smaller gardens. The best approach is to first define your landscaping project and then select the rock type that best fits that purpose.

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.

A window flower box should be deep enough that there’s room for a wide selection of plants and the required amount of soil and gravel. Standard flower boxes are 8 inches deep and 8 inches from front to back. Larger is better to increase the variety of plants in the box, but you could run into stability issues as it increases in weight.
