"I had Matt do a rather small/medium job for me in April. He and his helper did a great job. Almost 2 months later, I noticed a couple of issues with the landscaping. I reached out to Matt and soon after, he got back to me. The problem will be taken care of this weekend. I can’t say enough about the great customer service that Matt gave me. I will definitely reach out to him again for my next landscaping project! Donna Haines"

"Miller Construction Group did an outstanding job on our stamped concrete patio. From the initial planning to the final finish, everything was handled professionally and with great attention to detail. The craftsmanship is top-tier?the pattern, color, and overall finish came out even better than we expected. The crew was on time, organized, and kept the jobsite clean. The project was completed on schedule, and the results completely transformed our outdoor space. If you?re looking for high-quality concrete work done right, I highly recommend Miller Construction Group."

"I cannot recommend this landscaper enough! What started as an overgrown, neglected area that honestly felt beyond saving has been completely transformed into a clean, refreshed slate—the perfect foundation for the vision we have for our property. Their attention to detail, hard work, and craftsmanship exceeded every expectation. They took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and turned a complete mess into a space we are genuinely proud of. The difference is unbelievable, and we’ve already had so many compliments from friends and neighbors. This project gave us the fresh start we were hoping for, and we’re excited to continue working with them to turn this clean slate into something truly beautiful. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, professional, and genuinely takes pride in their work, look no further. The quality of the finished project speaks for itself,"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can landscape in the rain, but you should take some precautions to keep yourself and your tools safe. Avoid using electric landscaping tools during rainfall, and don’t mow, thatch, aerate, or rake in the rain, as your tools can more easily tear out roots in the loose soil. Be careful when working on wet grass, and take your time to avoid slipping. Avoid putting in new plants before a particularly bad storm, as heavy rain and strong winds can damage or uproot plants that aren’t yet established.

You should use mulch because it protects garden soil in a few key ways. This extra layer between the ground and the elements protects against erosion, helps your soil maintain moisture, regulates changes in temperature, adds nutrients as it decomposes, and keeps weeds at bay.

It is possible to DIY complete hardscaping projects, but in most cases, hiring a professional is best to get the job done correctly. Hardscaping—including installing patios, decks, retaining walls, walkways, and water features—is challenging and time-consuming, so the money you spend on a professional is typically worth it. Not only will the quality be better, but you could avoid problems that come along with a lack of hardscaping experience, like drainage issues that can lead to costly foundation damage and leaks in your home.

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 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.
