"I recently had the pleasure of hiring David and his crew - Martinez Landscaping for a comprehensive range of services, and I must share just how exceptional their team has been throughout every aspect of our projects. From installing furnaces and laying both sewer and water pipes to expertly handling our landscaping needs, paving a blacktop driveway, and efficiently managing dumpster and garbage removal, their versatility and skill have been evident. In addition to these services, Martinez Landscaping also installed a beautiful vinyl fence around our property, crafted a stunning patio, and performed meticulous ground leveling in our yard. They even handled some tree removal work with great precision. Every project undertaken was executed with utmost care and professionalism. Their attention to detail is commendable. They not only adhered to the scheduled timelines but also ensured that each job site was left spotlessly clean, treating our property with the respect as if it were their own. This level of detail-oriented service is rare and truly appreciated. The workers were respectful and courteous, contributing significantly to a smooth and hassle-free process. The end results of all their efforts have been nothing short of fantastic, leaving us thoroughly impressed and more than satisfied. Choosing Martinez Landscaping means opting for timely delivery, excellent service, and outstanding results. I wholeheartedly recommend them for any services they offer, confident that they will meet your expectations with the same dedication they have shown to ours. Truly, Martinez Landscaping does not just promise; they deliver excellence."

"I got quoted a fair price for cutting down a big oak tree with clean up and stump grinding, they actually were able to do the job a week earlier than I expected and had the job done in a little more than a day, friendly crew and great clean up, they even ground down a smaller stump I had in my yard from a removal done years ago for no extra charge, highly recommend Brizzy's"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

There are two main times of year to apply mulch: mid to late spring and late fall. Spreading mulch in mid to late spring helps protect new seedlings as the soil warms up. It's best to wait until temperatures are steady, as mulching too early in the spring can slow down the soil's warming process and hinder plant growth. Fall mulching is also beneficial, as it insulates the soil and helps regulate its temperature when the first frosts arrive.

While you can leave roots in the ground, if you don’t want the shrub to regrow again over time, it’s best not to leave any roots behind. Ensure you remove as much of the shrub as possible, including the root ball and any main roots you can see, to prevent new growth. Some gardeners opt for using a chemical treatment to prevent the stump from growing back, but this can kill beneficial microorganisms living in your soil.

While both fall and spring are suitable times of the year for planting trees, fall is typically the better option. Soil stays warm long enough to allow tree roots to establish in fall before they go dormant, while spring might give way to intense summer heat before spring-planted trees have time to grow strong roots.

The landscaping elements that add the most value are often the basics. A well-maintained, attractive lawn can have a return on investment (ROI) of up to 217%. Routine lawn maintenance, such as edging and mulching, can provide an ROI of over 100%. Other high-value projects include upgrading your front walkway, which can offer a 100% ROI, and planting trees. Projects like adding decks, patios, outdoor lighting, irrigation systems, fire pits, and outdoor kitchens also add value and enjoyment, though their direct financial ROI may be less than 100% in some cases.

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.
