"Mr. Austrie did an outstanding job, and explained in detail how to care for the lawn before, during, and after installation. I would recommend him to anyone who would like to landscape their property. Mr. Austrie made it quite clear that I can call and ask him about any issues regarding the installation."

Malik suggested improvements to my original plan which have really enhanced the whole look of the area. Malik was responsive, courteous and easy to work with. They completed the work promptly for a very fair price."

"As a young professional, Craig understands that doing exceptional work for his clients represents who he is. Craig was tasked with planting fruit trees and beautiful plants in my backyard many years ago. Craig put a lot of planning before embarking on the project. He was punctual and worked on the project with enthusiasm and creativity. After many years, I am still enjoying crops from my pear tree. The blackberries are my grandchildren’s favorite. Each year in early spring I send a picture of the pear tree to Craig to show him the beauty of the tree while it blossoms. I highly recommend Craig to you and assure you that you will be pleased with the outcome."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

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

Monkey grass makes a beautiful, low-maintenance ground cover, particularly in shadier areas where other grasses don’t receive enough sunlight to grow. It’s also excellent for edging walkways, bordering flower beds, and accenting rock gardens. You can grow it as a container plant, as well, which is a perfect solution for those who love its foliage but want to contain the spread.

There are some instances when you can use extra drywall in your garden. Ideally, unused scraps of new drywall are best for amending soil without the concern of additional chemicals or mold. However, drywall with paint, mold, or potential asbestos requires specialized disposal by a professional and should be kept out of your garden.

Common features in lakefront landscaping projects include native and water-tolerant plants, stone paths, docks or piers, seating areas, and erosion control solutions to create a harmonious integration with the waterfront setting.
