"Sean was wonderful and VERY reasonably priced. He installed a dry well system, cleaned my gutters, did two window wells and regraded a section of my yard all in a day. Can't wait to have him come out this summer to have him install a french drain system on the other side of my house!"

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 110% RECOMMEND! The team at ALL4 Masonry LLC was absolutely amazing! They arrived when they said they would, were professional and courteous from start to finish, and did an exceptional job. What impressed me most was their attention to detail throughout the entire process. The concrete they replaced was 51 years old, and seeing the quality and care they put into the new installation, I’m confident this one may last even longer! Professional, reliable, skilled, and easy to work with, definitely a MUST-HIRE team for any masonry work! We will absolutely be using ALL4 Masonry LLC again when it’s time to install the foundation for our back deck. Thank you to the entire team for a job extremely well done! 👏🏼🏡."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

You should exercise care when deciding how to landscape over a leach field for your septic system. You typically want lightweight materials that won’t damage the drain field’s perforated pipes. When adding plants to the area, select plants with shallow roots, such as grass or flower gardens. Trees with deep roots could damage the pipes in the field.

Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don’t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.

A scattering of leaves won’t pose a problem through the winter, but a thicker layer of leaves may not decompose before the first frost and can instead weigh down your grass and harbor mold or fungi. A thick layer of leaves also cuts off light and air that grass needs to grow. That’s why we suggest removing thick leaf layers within several days if possible. If your lawn goes dormant over the winter and snow has already caught up with you, then remove the leaves in early spring before your grass-growing season starts so your lawn can thrive.

Plant privet hedges at least 1 foot apart in a trench about 2 feet wide and 2 feet deep. It’s important to space privet hedges relatively far apart due to how quickly they grow to significant sizes and heights. You don’t want to crowd privet plants, or they could overcrowd each other, causing unwanted damage.

The best size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.
