Alex's Proscape, LLC is a customer focused landscape company located in State College, Pennsylvania. Alex’s Proscape, LLC provides a full line of landscaping/lawncare and snow removal services for both residential and commercial properties.

"The business engages in shady billing practices. They say they mowed the lawn when the lawn did not need mowing at all. They say they did a "double cut" when the grass was barely 2 inches in height. When we complain, the staff is rude and comes across as racist. Based on our experience, we would not recommend hiring Alex's Proscape for lawn care. We will not renew our contract."

Additional email - [email protected]. Dincher and Dincher Tree Surgeons Inc was founded by Bernard J Dincher and Thomas M Dincher in 1950. The two brothers boarded a city bus carrying a cross-cut saw and cut down a tree for a fee of $50.00. The brush was burned and the log bucked into firewood. The business was run as a part time enterprise until the mid seventies. The founders’ two oldest sons built a full time full service tree co. The company was largely serving the residential tree care sector. The co was very innovative, bringing a number of firsts to the Greater Williamsport Area.

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Mulching any time of year can be beneficial, so you can choose based on your preference. Most homeowners avoid the winter and summer because of the uncomfortable temperatures, so spring and fall are often best. Try not to mulch right before heavy rainfall or a big storm is expected, as wind and runoff can move newly laid mulch around and make more work for you.

The main benefit of topsoil is that it enriches the soil with nutrients that help your plants and garden grow at a healthy rate. Topsoil improves how well your soil drains water and gives it a more fertile texture, so that not only do you get better planting, but weeding is also much easier.

The number of bags of topsoil you need depends on the depth you’re filling. The average topsoil is sold in a roughly forty-pound bag, covering 12 square feet at a one-inch depth. Since topsoil is by nature the uppermost layer of soil, you can bet on only needing to fill about 4 to 8 inches of soil depth with it.

Pea gravel is hands down a top pick for managing landscape drainage.  These small stones allow water to flow through easily by creating natural gaps that promote runoff. Beyond functionality, pea gravel also offers visual versatility. Homeowners will find a range of earthy tones like gray, brown, blue, and even red, making it easy to match with different outdoor styles and plantings.

The depth of your decomposed granite depends on its intended use, but around 3 to 4 inches is the most common depth. Driveways that need to support a lot of weight should be at a depth of no less than 6 inches. Walkways that won’t see a lot of weight but lots of foot traffic should be built at a depth of 3 to 4 inches, and patios should also be between 3 and 4 inches deep.
