"Outstanding, Andrew took general guidance of what I wanted and came up with a solid plan that included a larger patio, room for a hot tub, built a great looking grill surround, tied patio into gazebo and great looking landscaping around patio and new fence. Received numerous quotes. Eql was lowest priced by 15%-20% and highly rated. Recommend them for all landscaping and hardscaping needs. Quality of work was superior to anything I have had done in the past at lower price"

"Giacomo and his team did a wonderful job on both my front and back yards. They removed bushes and small trees, and landscaped all of our beds beautifully! The job was scheduled and completed within 2 weeks of receiving a quote. Giacomo was also very responsive to (my many) questions, taking the time make sure he could bring my vision to life, and offer really helpful suggestions. He and his team are attentive to detail, and provide high quality work. They were also very respectful of the property. All of this was provided at a very fair value. I highly recommend G and G Landscaping!"

Customers say: Quality work

"I recently bought a home and hired Expressive Designs for the landscaping. My new home had extensive landscaping that had been neglected and overgrown; it was basically a mess. Sarah and her crew came in and took care of everything. They removed what didn't fit, rearranged/transplanted what was out of place, and trimmed and cleaned up everything else. They also installed a line of arborvitae trees to created a nice hedgerow privacy/barrier between my neighbors. On top of all of that Sarah was great to work with. I was happy with the results and I'd recommend Expressive Designs to others."

"We’re extremely pleased with the beautiful job Delanson Gardens did on my mother’s grounds. She had had past negative experiences with two other local so-called “landscaping” companies, who only wanted to mow and dump weedkiller so they could go on to multiple other jobs the same day, but charged almost as much as Doug. After that, the meticulous and thorough work done by Doug and his four assistants (with NO weedkiller!) was very refreshing. They worked nearly nonstop for 7+ hours, and clearly were an experienced and well-coordinated crew. Did all work quoted, cleaned up all debris completely, and Mom’s place has never looked better! She is already making them a list for “Phase 2" on other parts of her property. We highly recommend Delanson Gardens!"

"From the first estimate to the final cleanup, the whole experience was great! They were professional and showed up when they said they would. They completely transformed our yard with new landscaping, mulch beds, and trimming, and everything looks clean and polished. Fair pricing for the amount of work. We’ve already had neighbors asking who did our landscaping. Highly recommend!"

"My wife and I can't tell you enough how totally pleased we are having Serge and his crew install our patio. We are pleased beyond expectations and highly recommend his services. On a lark, I asked two different companies for estimates to install a patio. When we met Serge, and verified his references who all raved about him, we knew he was getting the job. We didn't think he could get it in before spring and he called and said he would do the install last week. We are thrilled beyond expectation and will use him again in the spring!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.

There are many benefits to raised garden beds. It’s easier to control weeds and enrich the soil. The truth is, most top soil isn’t suitable for growing veggies, and you’ll need to make adjustments. It’s easier to adjust a controlled space than a large area.

If you’re hiring a landscaper to plant the garden of your dreams, you do not need to provide them with plants that you bought yourself from a nursery. While you certainly can provide your landscaper with plants, keep in mind that some nurseries provide discounts to landscaping companies, therefore potentially lowering your materials cost. Beyond the cost of the plants themselves, you need to have additional materials like topsoil and mulch for the project. Most likely, your landscaper can get a discount on these materials as well, so it’s worth speaking with them before making any large purchases.

The soil around your foundation should slope down and away from your home, not toward it. If the grading drops the farther you are from your home, you can enhance the slope by removing more soil. Mark off a few feet from your house and dig up some of this soil. Regrading around your fountain should encourage water to flow away from your home and not collect or “pond.”

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.
