"Very good company that took a lot of pride in their work. I needed a section of my yard cleared of all brush and overgrowth in an area about 1/2 acre in size. They showed up ready to work and within 2 days they had torn everything out, hauled it away, and laid down 40 yds of topsoil and graded it out to a nice finished product ready for grass seed. They went above and beyond by cutting back the edges of the yard to a manageable distance to the property line, and by pulling all the vines and growth that had grown up the side of the garage down and getting rid of as well. There were even 2 large oak tree trunks that had been cut down and left the year before that they were able to cut up and remove as well (these were at least 50-60 year old trees, so 3-3.5 foot diameter trunks). The price was much higher than I thought it would be, which is why I'm not giving 5 stars across the board, but they offered easy to use financing options and the end result is fantastic."

"Brent and his partner were incredible on a tough installation of problematic storm doors (thanks Larson), and two new ceiling fans. They worked tirelessly in the 90+, 80% humidity, were thorough, and best of all really nice. I’m getting them again in a couple of years when we redo a bathroom!"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

Multiple rules of thumb exist when discussing tree planting. When planting a tree, the best rule of thumb is to provide it with everything it needs to survive and thrive in its new environment. That may mean learning about the type of tree you're planting and studying the best methods of taking care of it before purchasing and planting. 

When planting, it's best to leave several feet between a house and a juniper bush. Many juniper varieties will become quite bushy and require space to grow. Juniper branches that come into contact with siding can damage the home's exterior over time. Also, some juniper bushes have aggressive roots that can put pressure on a home's foundation or basement walls. 

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.

Monkey grass isn’t too picky when it comes to light conditions: It needs sun but prefers partial shade. While it can tolerate full sun, it thrives in environments with partial shade (around four to six hours of sunlight per day). The black mondo grass variety is the most tolerant of heat from direct sunlight.

Late August, September, and mid-October are the ideal months for planting a young tree. However, the best time to plant a tree ultimately depends on when the weather transitions to fall-like conditions and eventually winter frost. As long as the hottest days of summer have passed and the ground hasn’t frozen yet, you can still successfully plant trees.
