"I had a 100 year old tree removed as well as a pool taken down which really made a mess of my backyard. I never thought I would fine a landscaper that would remove all the tree stump wood that was left after the stump was ground up and all the grass that was destroyed from removing it as well as the damage the pool left but I found a wonderful landscaper that went over and above cleaning up my yard, installing sod, installing mulch and plants. I now will love to sit on my deck and enjoy looking out at the wonderful jot that Jay, Roy and D did for me. I will be calling them back to do power washing of my fence within a couple of weeks after my sod and plants have had a chance to root develop."

"They haven't started to mow our lawn every week, but I have high hopes after meeting their owner. My evaluation is based entirely on first impressions. Our next door neighbor also hired them."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

A scattering of leaves won’t pose a problem through the winter, but a thicker layer of leaves may not decompose before the first frost and can instead weigh down your grass and harbor mold or fungi. A thick layer of leaves also cuts off light and air that grass needs to grow. That’s why we suggest removing thick leaf layers within several days if possible. If your lawn goes dormant over the winter and snow has already caught up with you, then remove the leaves in early spring before your grass-growing season starts so your lawn can thrive.

In addition to aloe vera and lilac, other effective humidity-reducing plants include peace lilies, Boston ferns, English ivy, spider plants, and lucky bamboo. These plants thrive in humid environments and can naturally lower moisture levels. Place them in areas prone to dampness for the best results.

You should exercise care when deciding how to landscape over a leach field for your septic system. You typically want lightweight materials that won’t damage the drain field’s perforated pipes. When adding plants to the area, select plants with shallow roots, such as grass or flower gardens. Trees with deep roots could damage the pipes in the field.

Many ways to landscape a steep slope on a budget exist. Avoiding expensive retaining wall construction is the first step. Consider creating a rocky slope with boulders or large stones, or think about planting perennials that return every year with a single investment. Transplanting small trees from elsewhere on your property is also possible and can help to stabilize steep slopes without purchasing new ones. 

A half inch above ground level is ideal for metal edging. This provides enough depth for the edging to hold in place and enough height to keep in most landscaping materials (like mulch or gravel). If you install edging too high off the ground, it will stand out from your landscaping and pose a tripping risk. If you install it too low, your ground cover won’t stay in place.
