Customers say: Quality work

"Was supposed to do bi-weekly mowing after clean up. Spring Clean up was good But they came back before 2 weeks to do a mowing. They said they would contact me before coming no call no text. The grass had not even started to grow yet. No advanced warning. I had it in writing that it was to be Bi-weekly and start when I gave go-ahead. I felt ignored and complete lack of communication after the spring cleanup. They basically took the money and ran in my book."

"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."

"Wilson and team repointed my patio, taking the time to power-wash under the bricks and get everything perfectly level. Wilson explained every step and the guys were in and out in two days. I asked for a quirky repair on one missing face brick and they gave me just what I wanted. Would hire again."

Mulch and Topsoil FAQs, answered by experts

The hydroseed mix—known as a slurry—helps grass seed take root in many ways. Water combines with the mulch, allowing the grass seed to stay moist while grounded in the soil. The extra fertilizer then provides the boost the seed needs to flourish. In just a few weeks, you'll be ready to break out the lawnmower again.

When laying gravel, it's often a good idea to apply a base layer, such as sand or crushed concrete. You may also want to layer a weed-blocking membrane on top of the base layer to prevent weeds and grass from sprouting up in your gravel driveway. Without the appropriate base layer, the gravel you lay may sink into the soil.

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.

While you can put gravel directly on dirt, it won’t be very stable. It also won’t block out any weeds. Most experts recommend layering weed barrier and a layer of packed sand or other foundation material to prevent the gravel from sinking into the earth and being overtaken by weeds.

In most cases, it’s better to remove rocks before adding mulch. Layering the two will restrict drainage and plant health, and can create an unpleasant texture underfoot.
