"Absolutely fantastic experience. I am completely and totally satisfied with the work done. We had a brand new front walkway installed and then the entire front yard landscaping mulched. This has given us gorgeous curb appeal and brought new life to the front of our house. We purchased the home a year ago and the 44 year old pavers that were there were beyond tired looking. I cannot get over the amazing transformation from the work done. The work was done in the most professional manner. After the work was completed everything was fully cleaned up. I am beyond pleased and the work has exceeded my expectations. Thank you ZJs for outstanding work!"

"Jonathan is conscientious, polite and a very hard worker. He is able to work with me the home owner to spread 10 yds of mulch, while I was giving specific instructions as I helped with the job. He was competent, diligent and flexible with what I wanted to accomplish. I will want to hire him again for other projects around the outside landscape. He answered my text messages and phone calls quickly to give me idea of his arrival and cost of the job. He was fair with his labor rates and we appreciated his honest effort to help us on this job. I am telling my neighbors to hire him, if they need landscape help."

"BetterWay Excavating gave me the lowest price of the three estimates I got on excavating, grading, and power raking my 7000 sq ft back yard (I am doing the grass seeding myself). They arrived early, completed the work in a day and a half, and did a great job. I fully recommend them."

"I highly recommend DryTech for basement foundation repair. Steve Lombardi was amazing! He walked me through the repairs I needed, educated me on the process and was able to schedule the repairs quickly. On the scheduled day for the repairs, the team (Carlos, Alex and Derek) arrived on time. They were very professional and worked quickly. They had to dig up my front and side yard to get to the repairs. After the job was completed (only took 1 day) you cannot tell they were there! They did such a great job on putting everything back in the correct place (including bushes, landscaping lights and mulch) it looks like nothing was done. I could not be happier that I selected DryTech for the job. Do yourself a favor do not waste time looking around- hire the best!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Most experts recommend a quarter-inch layer of compost for best results, and you will need about .77 cubic yards of material per 1,000 square feet. To measure how much compost to use, take the square footage of your yard and multiply it by .77, then divide that number by 1,000.

You should use mulch because it protects garden soil in a few key ways. This extra layer between the ground and the elements protects against erosion, helps your soil maintain moisture, regulates changes in temperature, adds nutrients as it decomposes, and keeps weeds at bay.

If you choose to leave gaps between your pavers, you can grow some ground cover plants between them for an organic feel. Look for plants such as creeping thyme, dymondia, jewel mint of Corsica, or clover.

A half inch above ground level is ideal for metal edging. This provides enough depth for the edging to hold in place and enough height to keep in most landscaping materials (like mulch or gravel). If you install edging too high off the ground, it will stand out from your landscaping and pose a tripping risk. If you install it too low, your ground cover won’t stay in place.

Plant a peach tree right at the end of your local dormancy period, likely at the very end of winter after the last frost when you can dig into the soft soil. Plan your backyard gardening season, including when planting peach trees, based on the frost schedule predicted in your local hardiness zone.
