"Carl, Garrett and their crew were outstanding from start to finish. I sought four estimates and based my decision not just on price but on how well the contractors educated me regarding the project. Carl was the only contractor to point out my current problems with pitch and drainage, which I had not known, but had caused pooling of water and damage to my current walkway. Not only did he correct the problem but he recommended pavers that I had not before considered, which have completely changed the look and beauty of my walkways. I am delighted with the result. Their masons are talented and first class. Garrett was always on the job and he and his crew were diligent and friendly and checked with me every step of the way. They maintained a clean work site and kept everything out of the way at the end of each workday. I could not be happier and highly recommend Carl Bongiorno & Sons."

"Extremely well l I contacted JG Landscaping to cut my overgrown property in lieu of a summons from the town, given the time crunch Jose from JG Landscaping made it a priority to get on site quickly and remedy the situation quickly and professionally. Jose and his crew went above and beyond and left my property manicured and beautiful. If you need any work do not hesitate to contact JG Landscaping."

"Everything went very well. Steve repaired my front brick walkway and did a very good job. Such a good job that I asked him to repair the back patio slabs. That also came out great. I’d recommend Randazzo Masonry to anyone."

"Was very responsive to my inquiries. He came by when I requested. Gave me a fair quote. I’m very happy with the reseeding of my lawn. He also came by to check on the results after the grass started growing in. I would definitely recommend him to others because he delivered what he said he would. And also explained how to care for the lawn to get the best results from the reseeding."

"I had a great experience with Carry Landscaping. Once we agreed on a design, they were at my house within two weeks. The prices were fair and we are happy with the pavers that we picked out. The job only took 3 days and the results look GREAT. They are everything we wanted. I could not be happier with the work that Carry Landscaping did, and I would absolutely hire this pro again."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

While both fall and spring are suitable times of the year for planting trees, fall is typically the better option. Soil stays warm long enough to allow tree roots to establish in fall before they go dormant, while spring might give way to intense summer heat before spring-planted trees have time to grow strong roots.

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.

Finding a reputable greenhouse or nursery should start online, where you can read through customer reviews to gauge the quality of the plants sold and the customer experience. Look out for customers complaining about plants dying shortly after purchase, and try to choose a greenhouse known for hiring employees who are able to explain how to care for the plants you purchase. It’s also a good idea to head to a few greenhouses to see the selection they offer and make sure they carry the plants or trees you’re looking for.

Environmental considerations include native plant selection, wildlife habitation, erosion prevention measures, and managing water runoff patterns to protect the lakefront ecosystem.

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.
