"We're putting our house up for sale in a week and I needed some landscaping done to get it ready. Kevin was the only landscaper to get back to me. It started off well, with Kevin coming out to take a look at my property and give me a bid on the project. Everything was going well and we were scheduled to have our flower beds mulched, bushes trimmed, leaves cleaned up and a pile of wood removed on April 5th. Morning of April 5th comes, then around 1pm Kevin and his team still haven't shown up so I contact him...only then does he tell me that they can't make it that day and he needs to reschedule for Saturday April 10th. Keep in mind, I had to contact him to actually find this out...I initiated it! Fine, Saturday works but I need it done then. On the Friday night before, I decide to call and confirm that they are still coming the next day to do the work. A lady answers the phone in a weird way, I won't go into detail here, but not really a professional way to answer a phone. Whatever floats your boat though! She tells me she needs to call Kevin and will get back to me with confirmation. She calls back a few minutes later and tells me Kevin can't make it Saturday but should be able to on Sunday. Not happy, but still fine. Saturday afternoon I get another call, and what do you know...Kevin can't do the job on Sunday either! The whole time I stressed that I needed the work done so we could get our house on the market! Finally, forget it, I'll just do it myself. Had to take 3 unexpected days off from work to do all of the work by myself. This is probably the worst experience I have ever had with a contractor. You are only as good as your word, and K&M Landscaping is abysmal. I wouldn't trust them for anything now!"

Espinoza's Family Landscaping is a small family owned business. We work hard to provide you with beautiful landscaping work at reasonable and affordable prices! Our business works year-round so we are available for any season, event, or job needed. Our business also does cleaning services, where we remove any unwanted furniture from homes or garages. Perfect for the Spring cleaning time! Checks are most preferred.

"I would never use this company (Espinoza’s Family Landscaping) again. I initially laid out a detailed statement of work including types of trees & bushes. Original estimate was $700 but the day of work it became $1,500. Majority of work was done by one laborer because the owner was continually getting materials. Business owner changed tree selection because he had no knowledge what was available even though he initially said he could give me everything I requested. Didn’t supply the right stone or add the weed deterrent cloth. Requested cash each initially and during work and after work done. Items supplied were of lesser quality because they were all bought from Home Depot (tags attached). All trees & bushes allegedly had a one-year guarantee. I paid the final bill with his promise that he’d return and correct or add what he forgot. Never came back after numerous emails & phone messages. He also was informed much of what he planted (trees – bushes) had died but he also ignored replacement notifications."

"I can not comment on the product quality because I never placed an order. I will comment on the totally unprofessional and unhinged behavior of the person/people answering the phone. I called on 4/30/20 at 4:49pm to inquire about having 2 yards of soil delivered on 5/2. I spoke with a man (no identification) who told me that he would take my number and call me back tomorrow. I gave him my name and number and hung up the phone. I received a call this morning (5/1/20) at 6:52 am from a female as a follow up. She quoted me 112-116$ for two yards of soil. I asked about what time I can expect the soil to be delivered on 5/2. She told me that it could be any time between 7-1pm. She then started to explain in detail how they process the deliveries at their site, which was ok but too much information. I then asked specifically what type of soil I was being quoted, at which point she told me that she could not tell me because I never told her what it was being used for. I said some was for a flower bed and some would be used for my lawn. She stated that the quote was for screened topsoil because that was the best for my application. At this point I was concerned with the vague nature of her responses and stated that I would have to call her back to schedule the delivery as I thought the price was a bit high and wanted to explore other options. All of sudden a male voice came onto the phone unidentified and started yelling at me about how I don't know what I'm talking about and that I should call "Mr. Mulch", because they'll be sure to get it to me "by Thursday". I attempted to slow this guy down and he then stated "Aren't you the guy who called me after 5 yesterday?" I told him I called just before 5, he told me I was lying. He then asked me what I do for a living. I said "I guess you don't want my business." He told me that he did not need my business, that he had more business than he knows what to do with, and hung up the phone. I am dumbfounded at this behavior. I can't help but assume that the call at 6:52am was punitive for some kind of perceived slight of calling his business after 5pm, even though I clearly did not. It is not acceptable to call a private residence at that time without prior discussion. This person isn't right in the head, and a search of other online reviews bears out a pattern of this type of behavior. This business should be avoided at all costs. I can only imagine what type of response a customer would receive if there was a problem with their delivery. I am thankful that I never got to that point."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

While you don’t need to put anything down before mulch, you can apply a pre-emergent herbicide to prevent weed growth. As long as you remove weeds before you spread mulch, you should be in the clear. But a herbicide is something that you can put down before mulch as an extra layer of protection.

In most cases, it’s better to remove rocks before adding mulch. Layering the two will restrict drainage and plant health, and can create an unpleasant texture underfoot.

Costs for lakefront landscaping are influenced by project size, choice of plants and materials, labor, and any additional features or structures desired. Projects can range from a few thousand dollars to extensive transformations costing much more.

Although it’s not required to lay anything under mulch, it can help to put landscape fabric or plastic weed barrier down and lay mulch on top. The barrier helps keep weeds from growing up through your mulch. It also helps keep rodents and insects from burrowing into the ground underneath.

Pea gravel can retain some heat, but it generally stays cooler than materials like concrete, asphalt, or stone pavers. Lighter-colored pea gravel reflects more sunlight and tends to stay cooler, while darker-colored gravel can absorb heat and become warmer to the touch.
