"Digworx Services did landscape grading work to improve my yards drainage. Slade did a wonderful job. He was very neat and cleaned up nicely afterwards."
"Tom was recommended to me by a friend at the beginning of the summer. I had 12 skip laurel trees to be planted. Tom and his team did an excellent job. I was so happy with his service and professionalism I had him plant Crape Myrtles 2 weeks later. Then I asked him about a patio in my yard and he said "No problem we can do it. He installed blue stone. It looks beautiful. He is 100% reliable and always shows up when he says. No job is too small or too large. The last job for the season is my fall clean up. I will continue to use them. I highly recommend them!!"
"Max and his team do an outstanding job of maintaining my property throughout the season. He is always available, personable, and prices have not changed for the past 3 years."
"Fatos and his team did an amazing job designing and installing lighting throughout our garden and front of the house. I found them through Angies, got proposals from three companies, and decided to give the business to Kelvin Landscape Lighting. Could not be happier! It looks phenomenal at night, turns on and off automatically like I wanted, and the price was good... just excellent work. Would 100% hire again. PS: I was very concerned about the trenching for cables and how my lawn would look like after. Fatos and team did such a great job you cant even tell there were cables run across the lawn. Amazing!"
"Carlos did an amazing job! He was quick and efficient. Came home from work and my house was lit up. All colored smart bulbs, soffits work with an app, up lights work with a remote. We will definitely be working with them on future projects."
"Lorenzo was responsive, prompt and fair. He and his team installed a drywall for us to help with water in our basement 6 months ago. So far, everything is working well."
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.
A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.
Consulting your local university extension, Audubon society, or municipal urban forestry program are all good ideas when choosing a tree to plant. You can also ask an arborist or a knowledgeable landscaping company for advice on good trees to plant.
When planting, it's best to leave several feet between a house and a juniper bush. Many juniper varieties will become quite bushy and require space to grow. Juniper branches that come into contact with siding can damage the home's exterior over time. Also, some juniper bushes have aggressive roots that can put pressure on a home's foundation or basement walls.
In most cases, buying plants from a local greenhouse or nursery is well worth the investment, even though they tend to be a bit more expensive than those at a home improvement store. Employees at nurseries are usually well-versed in gardening and understand how the climate in your area affects different plants. They can help you make selections based on your skill level and time commitment to your landscaping, and they can provide detailed care instructions and advice to help keep your plants alive and diagnose and treat issues like pest infestation and illness.
