"both front and backyard. I had Mario's Landscaping work on my yard since I had injured both my back and hip. They did everything I asked and with professionalism and all the workers were extremely friendly. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone that asks and I have other projects for my yard that I will be having them back."

"They have been here once and did a great job on the front yard with liquid fertilizer. Used granular fertilizer on back waiting to hear back from Oasis on what results I should expect in the backyard. I do have a fence that blocked them from getting their machine with liquid fertilizer into the back. Will evaluate more than time goes on"

"Sunrise has a connection to Silver Diamond Fencing. The fence that they installed 11 years ago needed some repairs. I called Ishmael and he appeared that same day and gave a reasonable estimate. His crew did the needed repair quickly and as estimated. The crew used an improved fastening system which will enhance the fence's lifespan."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

If composting feels too complicated, mulching is an effective alternative. While composting focuses on breaking down yard waste to feed the soil, mulching uses that same organic material as a protective top layer. It's a quick way to get value from leaves, grass clippings, and other yard debris without the time or effort composting requires.

Generally, it is not necessary to remove old mulch before applying a new layer. As organic mulch breaks down, it enriches the soil with nutrients. However, you should remove the old layer if it shows signs of fungus or disease, which can be common in moist areas, or if the total depth is already too thick. Avoid letting the total mulch depth exceed 3 inches, as this can harm plant roots. If you do remove old, disease-free mulch, it can be added to a compost pile.

Dawn dish soap is typically too abrasive to use on plants, even when diluted with water. The soap contains detergents that can strip away a plant's natural waxes and oils, which are there to protect the leaves.

Should you decide to make your own soap spray insecticide, it's important to choose a gentle soap that doesn't contain detergents or surfactants. Castile soap, such as Dr. Bronner’s, is a good pick.

Clearing 1 acre of land takes anywhere from two to 12 hours for a professional team, depending on what they’re removing. The amount of time needed to complete the project depends on the size of your acreage, the land’s condition, the size of the crew completing the work, and what type of equipment they’re using. Smaller projects normally take a few hours, while larger projects may require one or two full workdays.

Mulching leaves with a lawn mower is a great way to reap the benefits of leaf nutrients composting into your lawn without the leaves covering too much of your grass.
