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."

"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

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.

Hedge plants are available in almost every size, from seedlings to fully mature, six-foot-tall shrubs. Planting smaller plants is much easier and more cost-effective. However, it can take years for the plants to reach maturity and create a full hedge. Garden centers and specialty retailers sometimes offer three to four-foot wide plants that you can simply plant next to each other for an instant full hedge.

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.

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.

You'll likely need more than great home staging to sell your home. Now is a great time to get to work on the curb appeal of your home . Hire local exterior painters and landscapers to coat the exterior of your home and bring it new life with some sprucing up.
