"Excellent! Dan was quick to respond to my request. We had a major backyard landscape overhaul last year after having approx 20 diseased trees removed. We hired a professional landscaper to bring more design to the existing mess that was created. Our previous woods was transformed into a park like effect surrounding our waterfall. The existing lighting did nothing to accent the backyard, Dan literally transformed the picture showcasing our waterfall, newly installed pine trees and native trees to create a serene peaceful space to enjoy our new landscape in the evenings. Dan was prompt, working within my timeframe and keeping me informed of the project and his schedule up to installation. Thank you Dan...you are the MAN!"

"Dan and his crew did a great job installing our lawn and landscaping. They got the job done neatly and efficiently in one day. Dan was very easy to work with, responsive to our questions and quick to get us on his schedule. He was also very helpful recommending plants for our flower beds and advising us on how to get the lawn growing which it did in a very quick manner and already looks great after only less than two weeks."

"Despite telling them to arrive at 10 am, they arrived at 9 am. Not a big issue, but we had to leave and come back. Although they did a lot of work, the quality could have been better. We are going to have to still hire someone else to make our yard presentable."

Small jobs welcome

"I needed leaf clean-up from my front and back yards. I was very pleased with the work done by Jerry and his assistant. They did a thorough job (in the rain) and left my property clean. The cost was a bit higher than what I had hoped to pay but in the end it was worth it. I would definitely recommend J&M Family Landscaping."

"Cory and his mate did a fantastic job on removing this willow tree that was dead and uprooted leaning over from powerful winds we’ve been having! I highly recommend them for any landscaping needs you may have!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best landscaping for a septic drain field is shallow-rooted grass or native vegetation that helps prevent soil erosion while allowing water to evaporate efficiently. Avoid planting trees, shrubs, or deep-rooted plants near the drain field because the roots can infiltrate pipes and cause blockages. Using mulch or gravel sparingly can also help retain moisture and protect the system without restricting airflow.

Yes, you can landscape in the rain, but you should take some precautions to keep yourself and your tools safe. Avoid using electric landscaping tools during rainfall, and don’t mow, thatch, aerate, or rake in the rain, as your tools can more easily tear out roots in the loose soil. Be careful when working on wet grass, and take your time to avoid slipping. Avoid putting in new plants before a particularly bad storm, as heavy rain and strong winds can damage or uproot plants that aren’t yet established.

It’s usually best to buy plants from a local greenhouse or nursery yourself, but landscapers are also a reliable option. First, you can choose exactly what plants you want based on their appearance rather than relying on your landscaper to choose. Additionally, while it’s more time-consuming to go buy the plants yourself, you’ll often save money because landscapers charge for delivery and may upcharge the plants. You can also speak to a professional at a nursery to ensure you understand how to care for your plants and get the most long-term value.

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.

The best place to plant a rose bush is where it will be happiest. Growing roses is difficult if the location varies much from what the plants like. Choose a location that gets at least six hours of direct sunlight during the growing season but not much more than that in hot-climate locations. If such a spot doesn't exist in your yard, consider planting your rose in a movable container to take advantage of portability.
