"“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. "

"Paul and his crew demolished our old concrete steps and replaced it with new brick steps. We were so happy with the craftsmanship and quality we hired them back a few weeks later to build a brick landscaping wall across the front of our house. Paul was great to work with and communicated with us throughout both jobs. His responsiveness was very much appreciated. One small thing: a few days after the wall job was done we noticed concrete splatter stuck to the siding. Unfortunately by the time we noticed it, it had already dried. We tried to chip it off but were unsuccessful so we had to touch up a few areas of our siding with fresh paint. Other than that, we felt the work was phenomenal and we’d definitely hire Paul back again. Highly recommend!"

"Chris left one of his crew to cut down 5 pine trees and 2 bushes in the backyard. He was very good in taking down the pine trees and cutting down the bushes. They cleaned up the back yard before they left for the day. They came back to take down a spruce tree on the side of the garage and another pine in the front yard. For the amount of work, the value was excellent. Nice job!!"

"Highly recommend! Had several tree stumps removed from my yard and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. Bill was professional, responsive, and worked fast. Everything was cleaned up really well afterward too. I’d definitely use him again for future work."

"Premier Lawn and Snow, which is actually Andrew's Lawn and Snow, was very responsive and did exactly what we agreed to, which was weekly (every 7-10 days) lawn care until October. The first time they came was this week while I was at work. I received an email notice, as well as before and after pictures and when I got home I was very pleased with the work. They missed one swath of lawn, which wasn't surprising the way our property abuts with the neighbor's (used to be all one plat) and they made a judgment call based on a fence, which was reasonable. I called the customer service number, which was promptly answered and he made a note for the next time they came out. Also want to mention that we received a written contract (emailed). At this point I would highly recommend!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

In most cases, buying plants from a local greenhouse or nursery is well worth the investment, even though they tend to be a bit more expensive than those at a home improvement store. Employees at nurseries are usually well-versed in gardening and understand how the climate in your area affects different plants. They can help you make selections based on your skill level and time commitment to your landscaping, and they can provide detailed care instructions and advice to help keep your plants alive and diagnose and treat issues like pest infestation and illness.

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.

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.

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.
