Customers say: Quick response

"I hired Craig to spread the 80 bags of mulch I purchased. From the 1st contact with him he kept me in his plans to make sure I had my project completed in the time I wanted. During the project he consistently made sure I was happy with the process before moving forward. I could not have asked for a better contractor for the large project I had. I would definitely recommend him to anyone that needs a hard worker and a perfectionist. My yard looks great and I'm very happy I hired Craig."

"This is the kindness and most diligent/efficient team I have ever had the pleasure of work with. Their work was nothing short of amazing. Extremely professional and I wish I had taken before and after photos. The transition was incredible. I highly recommend them and they will be my first call for future landscaping and masonry."

"They worked steadily and efficiently, making my yard look spotless. Plus they bagged and took away the leaves. The only concern I had was that the price was to include both back and front yard. But I did the front before they came. This did not change the price and those leaves were not bagged. Maybe that's how it works but I was caught off guard."

Small jobs welcome

"Destiny Properties was wonderful to work with! I appreciated that my instructions were followed as that has not always been the case with other companies. They were on time and friendly. The other thing that impressed me was the care that they took in not damaging my property but also my neighbors as the job required them to be on the lot line of 3 additional properties. It was a small job, but it was treated with the same level of importance as a bigger job. The owner, Bill, was thoughtful and polite both in person and on the phone. I will most certainly be hiring them again and sharing their contact info with others."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can landscape in the rain, but you should take some precautions to keep yourself and your tools safe. Avoid using electric landscaping tools during rainfall, and don’t mow, thatch, aerate, or rake in the rain, as your tools can more easily tear out roots in the loose soil. Be careful when working on wet grass, and take your time to avoid slipping. Avoid putting in new plants before a particularly bad storm, as heavy rain and strong winds can damage or uproot plants that aren’t yet established.

A window flower box should be deep enough that there’s room for a wide selection of plants and the required amount of soil and gravel. Standard flower boxes are 8 inches deep and 8 inches from front to back. Larger is better to increase the variety of plants in the box, but you could run into stability issues as it increases in weight.

Most experts recommend a quarter-inch layer of compost for best results, and you will need about .77 cubic yards of material per 1,000 square feet. To measure how much compost to use, take the square footage of your yard and multiply it by .77, then divide that number by 1,000.

Yes, you can put topsoil over sand to encourage grass growth. The topsoil will help to improve water retention and promote grass roots’ development, making it a recommended step of the seeding process. Adding a layer of topsoil will provide additional nutrients to the sandy soil, helping the grass grow and remain healthy through many seasons.

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.
