Customers say: Terrific value

"Kirk and Amanda were great to work with. We had a pretty bare yard that we just couldn't figure out how to design. They came up with fantastic ideas we never would have thought of (mulch beds casing our driveway, big block patio, etc.). During the process they were extremely professional and flexible! They were accommodating to any changes we made along the way, and we are thrilled with the results. We cannot believe how much we had done (and done well) for the money."

"They were pricey and I was disappointed the work wasn?t completed until October.  I never knew when it was going to take place.  Ultimately, they did a nice job with the pavers but the vegetation planted that was supposed to be deer-resistant; within two days deer had gotten to those plants.  1 st Impression indicated they would not replace these when I called them.  Also, they removed 25 bags of mulch and they removed these after consulting with my Wife but not me."

"Specialscapes installed a paver patio for me. Jay made some design and landscaping suggestions that improved the project. They did an excellent job for a reasonable price. They started and ended on time. The work crew was pleasant and thoughtful."

"We had our driveway poured and couldn?t be happier with how it turned out! The entire process was smooth from start to finish. The crew was professional, hardworking, and paid great attention to detail. They did an amazing job, cleaned everything up when they were finished, and the driveway looks fantastic. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to have a driveway poured. Great work, great service, and a beautiful finished product!"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.

The best time to plant a tree is in the spring, so the roots have time to grow into the surrounding soil before winter sets in. Some people recommend planting in the late fall. However, planting in the spring reduces the stress on the tree, as it will be emerging from dormancy, giving it the full spring and summer ahead to acclimate and put down roots into the soil.

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.

Surface-level tree roots might only pose a small threat, such as being a tripping hazard or obstacle when you mow your lawn. But if mature tree roots start growing in the direction of your home’s foundation or plumbing system, it could be a real problem. Cutting small tree roots out before they grow too large can keep your home safe without removing the whole tree.

Yes, adding a pergola can add value to your home and provides an excellent selling point for potential buyers who enjoy outdoor living. Pergolas may have a 50% to 80% return on investment. To add more value, choose a structure made from durable, long-lasting materials and have it professionally installed. Extra features like a motorized roof, smart louvers, and heaters or misters may also give you a better return on investment.
