"I had a fire pit built by J. Escalera Landscaping. I'm very happy with it. They did a phenomenal job constructing it to last for a century or more I'm sure of that. A few details were somewhat different from what was originally discussed but they did a couple of major improvements during construction that I was really pleased to have with my fire pit after completion. They started exactly as planned and finished in a timely manner. I would hire them again."

"Moretti landscaping was very responsive. They have done our backyard patio and I recently had them back to do our stone wall in our front yard. They also do a nice job with snow removal in winter."

"Hiring JJT Landscaping was truly the best decision I could have made! With three kids and a busy schedule, our yard had definitely become an afterthought. From the start, they impressed me with their professionalism—showing up exactly when they said they would (huge points for accountability!) and being mindful of our neighbors as well as our tight driveway. Our lawn had been struggling with grubs and brown spots, but within just a few visits, it was transformed. By the time my son’s first birthday party rolled around, the yard looked amazing and was ready to host everyone. JJT Landscaping took a stressful project off our plate and gave us a beautiful space to enjoy. I couldn’t recommend them more!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Consulting your local university extension, Audubon society, or municipal urban forestry program are all good ideas when choosing a tree to plant. You can also ask an arborist or a knowledgeable landscaping company for advice on good trees to plant.

It is possible to plant a tree over a ground stump if it was ground very deeply. However, it is typically best to plant elsewhere so your new tree has room to establish a strong, healthy root system. If you want to plant a tree in the same spot where you currently have a stump, you may want to consider other options, such as stump removal.

Determining how many boulders you’ll need for your landscaping project depends on the area you need to cover and how big each boulder is. First, you’ll need to determine how big of an area you want covered, then divide that by the base surface area of the boulders. A landscape professional can help you determine how many boulders will be right for your project.
