"AWESOME! These guys work is off the charts exceptionally! They did an outstanding job paving our driveway. It looks beautiful, the asphalt is deep, and they clean up afterwards really good. I'm sure you can probably find someone to pave your driveway for less money, but I highly doubt you'll find anyone to do a better job than these guys! Call them for a free quote. You won't regret working with them!"

"Chris does an excellent job and I have used him for the past 2 years. He is easy to work with, is very polite and is clean cut and very professional. He shows up reliably and leaves my yard looking nice and tidy, and he even blows the cut grass off of my driveway just before he leaves. Chris is a hard-working, dedicated young man with a very strong work ethic and he takes pride in his work and it shows. I have highly recommended C & C Lawn Care Services, and Chris, the owner, to neighbors, family and friends and will continue to do so. He does a great job at a fair price."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don’t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.

If you choose to leave gaps between your pavers, you can grow some ground cover plants between them for an organic feel. Look for plants such as creeping thyme, dymondia, jewel mint of Corsica, or clover.

As much as you might try to keep a healthy, nutrient-rich lawn, you still may notice signs of St. Augustine decline (SAD)—a viral disease that discolors your grass blades. St. Augustine decline looks like:

  • Discoloration in the leaves (chlorosis)—leaves appear yellow and splotchy

  • Decline in growth

  • Leaves turn black within 3 years

  • Grass appears less vibrant

  • Grass begins to thin

  • Root rot

  • Grass takes longer to recover

Most bamboo can send roots down two to three feet into the ground. However, when stopping bamboo from spreading, the focus is on the runner roots or rhizomes. These roots are much shallower, staying 12 inches or less from the surface, so they’re easier to find and remove. But if you want to remove the bamboo entirely, you’ll have to dig out the full root system.

Buying plants from a nursery is one thing, but ensuring that they are properly planted is another. While you might not need to hire a landscaper for every plant that you buy from a nursery, it’s a great idea to have their expertise and experience to plant larger items, like burlapped trees or specialty plants like rose bushes. Even better, before making a trip to a nursery to buy new plants, consult a local landscaper to test your soil for pH levels, soil texture, and phosphorus and potassium levels to help determine the best plants for your area.
