"Juan and his crew did a fantastic job! I had an existing patio that another contractor installed just a few years ago that was in need of repair because it was never done properly. Juan and his crew came in and basically rebuilt the entire patio from the ground up. He even added an outdoor kitchen area to make it even better. Juan and his team also did a great job of not tearing up the existing yard and landscaping with his machinery and equipment. In fact all of the excavation work was hand dug by shovel. We had a few delays because of the bad weather but that can be expected. My wife and I only regret is that we didn?t find NP Landscaping LLC sooner. So the bottom line is, If you are in need of a patio and you are looking for a contractor that does high quality work at a fair price then NP Landscaping LLC is what you are looking for. Great job Juan!!"

Customers say: Super punctual

"They arranged to start the job earlier than estimated and actually finished it before the planned start date. Very professional, good communication, made good suggestions. They even came up with a specially designed coupling to connect to the neighbor's French drains without doing any digging on his property (with permission, of course!)"

"Tony was so nice and personable. They did an awesome job with our 1 acre property leaf removal and the yard and gardens look amazing. He even recommended a tree trimmer for the spring to help with future leaves and maintenance. We will definitely hire them again."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best type of rock for landscaping depends on your specific project and needs, as different rocks are suited for different applications. For covering large areas or creating an affordable driveway, consider gravel, but note that it can wash away in flowing water. For water features, river rocks are a good option. Flagstone and cobblestone are ideal for aesthetically pleasing patios and walkways. If you are building a stone wall, fieldstone or small boulders are up to the task. Large boulders and landscape rocks work well as statement pieces, to fill empty space, or to indicate boundaries, but be mindful that they can overwhelm smaller gardens. The best approach is to first define your landscaping project and then select the rock type that best fits that purpose.

As with anything you do near your foundation, you’ll want to ensure proper drainage when you plant your foundation beds. Your drainage should run downhill from the highest point against your foundation to avoid water intrusion and incurring expensive foundation repair costs.

Yes, weeds can still grow in decomposed granite. If properly compacted, it can act as a good weed suppressant, meaning you’ll only pull weeds occasionally. But no ground cover is completely weed-proof. To further prevent weeds, you can try spraying your decomposed granite with distilled white vinegar.

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.

If you use the wrong plants for your gardening zone, you’ll likely get less than desirable yields from them. In some cases, your plants can even die. It’s important to ensure that your plants are able to survive in your hardiness zone before getting them into the ground.
