"“Excellent leaf pickup service! My yard was completely covered, and they made it look spotless. They didn’t just blow leaves around—they thoroughly collected everything, including corners and edges. The lawn looks clean and well-maintained now. They were on time, efficient, and left no mess behind. Highly recommend!”"

"Storm damaged 2 very large trees threatening the house. Dan and his crew professonally removed the trees even though multiple large and heavy branches were overhanging the roof. He knew exactly what to do , what equipment was require and how to do the work safely and efficiently. The cost was very reasonable and the yard was spottless when he was finished. I would happily hire him again. "

"The owner of this company has done a fantastic job, keeping my lawn and my trimming done every two weeks as I requested. He sends out an invoice when service is due and as soon as it’s paid, he comes the next day to do my lawn, trimming and cleanup of all the ciippings. I would highly recommend him"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

The best landscaping for a septic drain field is shallow-rooted grass or native vegetation that helps prevent soil erosion while allowing water to evaporate efficiently. Avoid planting trees, shrubs, or deep-rooted plants near the drain field because the roots can infiltrate pipes and cause blockages. Using mulch or gravel sparingly can also help retain moisture and protect the system without restricting airflow.

A half inch above ground level is ideal for metal edging. This provides enough depth for the edging to hold in place and enough height to keep in most landscaping materials (like mulch or gravel). If you install edging too high off the ground, it will stand out from your landscaping and pose a tripping risk. If you install it too low, your ground cover won’t stay in place.

The landscaping elements that add the most value are often the basics. A well-maintained, attractive lawn can have a return on investment (ROI) of up to 217%. Routine lawn maintenance, such as edging and mulching, can provide an ROI of over 100%. Other high-value projects include upgrading your front walkway, which can offer a 100% ROI, and planting trees. Projects like adding decks, patios, outdoor lighting, irrigation systems, fire pits, and outdoor kitchens also add value and enjoyment, though their direct financial ROI may be less than 100% in some cases.

A scattering of leaves won’t pose a problem through the winter, but a thicker layer of leaves may not decompose before the first frost and can instead weigh down your grass and harbor mold or fungi. A thick layer of leaves also cuts off light and air that grass needs to grow. That’s why we suggest removing thick leaf layers within several days if possible. If your lawn goes dormant over the winter and snow has already caught up with you, then remove the leaves in early spring before your grass-growing season starts so your lawn can thrive.
