"I love my backyard! John Starkie drew up the landscape design plans and kept me informed before, during and after planting. All work was completed in only 2 days including a repair to my patio pavers. He is passionate and educated about what he does and makes sure you know how to maintain your landscape. Johns crew removed a tree stump for free just to improve the look of the project. All work exceeded my expectation!!!"

"We have used Peter for almost 20 years at two different residences. He transformed our backyard and our property with complete landscaping services along with hardscape for pool, patio and brick steps. He is very responsive and willing to do whatever it takes to make the customer happy. His masons and workers have been with him for YEARS and their skill is unmatched. Would highly recommend."

"Extremely well l I contacted JG Landscaping to cut my overgrown property in lieu of a summons from the town, given the time crunch Jose from JG Landscaping made it a priority to get on site quickly and remedy the situation quickly and professionally. Jose and his crew went above and beyond and left my property manicured and beautiful. If you need any work do not hesitate to contact JG Landscaping."

"If anyone has read my reviews in the past, one would know that I hold NOTHING back. Since May of 2020, I have been embedded in the worst home owner's improvement experience in my 44 years of life on this earth. I would not even get into detail on this review, as it would be an insult to even mention other companies names with Castro Rivera. Castro Rivera is like no other company I have dealt with. I knew from the very moment I reached out that I had found someone very special. They basically took my nightmare and turned it into a dream come true. They were the final "step" so to speak in having my property "reconstructed" after the DISASTER that 2 other companies left me with. I dealt with Mike and Juan from Castro Rivera, and I am not sure who was nicer. In a nutshell, they were young, yet two of the most professional men I have ever dealt with. Juan responded IMMEDIATELY to my request (which by the way was at like midnight while I was desperately searching for a landscaper). I would not expect this to be the norm, although it would not surprise me on bit if Juan answered at all hours of the night. Mike and Juan revamped an entire section of my backyard, leveled out mounds and mounds of mud, planted beautiful trees and perennials, and laid sod down (not only in the areas requested, but he had extra and I walked out to the most amazing surprise to see other areas groomed and perfected). Each time they said they would be here, they were here. They were on time, worked hard, cleaned up beautifully, and their final project came out flawless. I have found a new company to address all of my landscaping needs. Please believe me when I say there are crazy, unprofessional contractors out there that are capable of ruining your home! It happened to me as 2 companies destroyed my backyard attempting to build a simple cement patio. Castro Rivera Landscaping saved the day...and you have an entire family who are forever grateful!"

"Although we got off to a slow start due to the weather, I found Carry Landscaping very easy to work with. Jenn, the office receptionist, and I have become fast buds after weather forced a few cancellations, but once the day came, Bill did all he was supposed to do and more. After speaking with both recommendations from HomeAdvisor, as well as well known landscapers, I found Bill to be the easiest to speak to -and, honestly, not, as they say, so full of himself. He did what I wanted. Others came with minimums, in other words, "This is what I charge, like it or not, whether your job is worth that much or not". Carry met the price I wanted to pay and allowed me to add more plants, which they included in the design. I recommend them highly!"

"Our experience with Polanco Bros Landscaping was amazing. The owner Hugo and his workers were all very professional, kindhearted and the final results far exceeded our vision for our front yard. We've had neighbors stop us and talk to us for the first time since we moved to Queens. This is how breathtaking the landscaping results turned out to be, that people who never spoke to us, found a way to tell us how amazing the work was. Thank you to Polanco Bros Landscaping for making this an unforgettable experience that will last for a lifetime! The flowers are already blooming nicely. It was money well spent, an investment into the beauty of our home."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

If you don’t like the way your empty drainage ditch looks, reach out to a local landscaping professional to discuss your options. They may be able to liven it up with plants, stones, bushes, or other decorative elements. You can also add your own landscaping, but you should first make sure that it won’t block your ditch or prevent it from operating effectively.

Landscaping prices are sometimes negotiable, but it depends on the professional with whom you’re working. In most cases, you’ll have a better chance of negotiating prices down the more work you have done. Your pro might be willing to discount labor if they’re guaranteed a large job. You can also ask your landscaper to recommend more affordable materials that will still bring your vision to life to save.

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. 

Xeriscaped lawns are far more varied than many gardeners initially assume. The often-pictured rocky and cacti-filled landscapes are just one option. Many wildflower-, herb-, and mulch-covered landscapes follow the same principles without straying too far from the lush and colorful landscapes we have come to know. In fact, there are numerous xeriscape ideas for customizing an energy-efficient lawn to your liking.

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.
