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."

"Very well. Mr. Shuleva took a whole year before the project was started, but once he got his workers in place, it went very well. In addition to creating a swale that directed floodwaters away from our house, he tied our drainpipes into a drain that took the water away from the house and installed a french drain (I think that's the correct term) around the retaining wall under our prized back porch. He also did some extras, including giving me two nice shrubs (some sort of hydrangea, I forget the name), replanting a dogwood and some heritage lilacs that he had to move in order to do the rest of the work, and reseeding another part of the yard. We get compliments on the work. Looks great, and the grass is coming in nicely."

"I had requested quotes for repairs to the front patio paver block installation approximately two years ago through the Home Advisor application, with no response received from any local contractor. I sent out another request this past August, and Jay was quick to respond, and visited my home to develop a quote. While on site, I also mentioned the desire to have new paver block installation for a picnic table, and Jay worked up an estimate for this project as well. A portion of the front patio paver block installation had sunk around the front porch area, resulting in a tripping hazard. I couldn't believe how Jay and his team were able to correct the problem, eliminating this hazard. The new paver installation for the picnic table was also completed on time, and to our satisfaction."

"I used Ashley to help me with the design of an entryway and staircase at my new home. I really struggle to visualize spaces and see their potential. I was unsure of what type of style I was going for and was having decision paralysis. She responded quickly and gave me so many options to help choose the right aesthetic for my space. She worked within my budget and suggested improvements that I could do on my own (and I am not very handy). I will definitely use her again for my larger design projects!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

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

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.

The best time to plant is between spring and autumn. Springtime weather is typically mild and is when nurseries start to bloom. When the summer weather arrives and it’s hot out, it’s best to avoid planting bare-root plants, but you can still plant many in-container varieties. The first sign of fall is another great opportunity to plant biennials if you live in southern states, or a lovely vegetable garden up north.

A full backyard renovation can cost between $15,000 and $50,000, depending on the scope of the project. Excavation, materials, and labor costs all contribute to the final cost of updating your outdoor spaces, and expensive features like a pool, a fence, or hardscaping carry a high price tag.
