Customers say: Quality work

"I would highly recommend this company!!!! Very professional & did a spectacular job. Cleanup was tremendous. They removed a small tree that fell & removed the stump, trimmed my hedges, cleaned the weeds off of the backyard fence, trimed a very large Crate Myrtle. Adrian put top soil where the tree stump was removed & without any asking also put additional on uneven areas & seeded!!!! He also mulched my back garden & that was not in the quote. Once again I can't say enough about Gauman Landscaping!!!"

"As part of a township U&O inspection, we needed some extensive repairs/replacement of concrete curb, sidewalk pads, and driveway aprons at our house. Zach and his team got the job done at a very fair price and high level of quality, despite some very strict township requirements. Everything was completed in a professional, timely manner and to our satisfaction. When or if I have more more landscaping, hardscaping, concrete, etc work, Romeo Landscaping will be my first call."

"Juan started the job the day I contacted him. He came that night and gave me an estimate. It sounded like a fair offer so I hired him. I was surprised to hear that his crew would be arriving the following day and would also finish the same day. My yard was like a jungle and I pointed out to the crew what was to stay and what was to go. Pablo and Oscar worked tirelessly and followed my requests implicitly. I had many trees and bushes. Only a few flowering bushes stayed put. Removing 3 6' bushes in the front must have been their biggest challenge. I these bushes must have been planted 50 years ago because the roots were thick and deep. But they got them out and covered the area with black mulch. It looks great as does the rest of the yard! Thank you KJ's House Cleaning Company."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The primary disadvantages of xeriscaping are the high upfront cost and the significant labor required to establish it. A xeriscaping project can cost between $3,000 and $24,000 on average. Additionally, the resulting landscape will have less of a traditional green appearance, which may not appeal to everyone's personal taste and could potentially narrow your pool of buyers if you decide to sell your home. However, despite these initial drawbacks, the long-term benefits include saving water, time, and money on lawn maintenance.

The average cost for landscaping is around $3,500, but prices can range from as low as $200 for simple DIY projects to $14,000 or more for extensive work. Several factors influence the final price, including your geographic location, yard size, project scope, chosen materials, site preparation, and the type of landscaping involved. Professional landscaper labor costs typically range from $50 to $100 per hour.

For a smaller budget, you can focus on softscaping projects like adding mulch, flowers, and shrubs, which might only cost a few hundred dollars if you do the work yourself. A budget of around $5,000 could cover projects like a simple patio, new plants and tree trimming, or a water feature. More extensive hardscaping projects, such as pergolas, patios, and walkways, can push the budget to $14,000 or more. For example, a flower bed installation averages between $800 and $3,000, while landscape lighting installation can cost from $2,000 to $6,000.

Yes, you can put topsoil over sand to encourage grass growth. The topsoil will help to improve water retention and promote grass roots’ development, making it a recommended step of the seeding process. Adding a layer of topsoil will provide additional nutrients to the sandy soil, helping the grass grow and remain healthy through many seasons.

The most important thing to put under a rock garden is the appropriate soil. The specific soil needed will depend on the type of plants you’re growing as well as the environment you live in. You can also put non-woven or woven fabric under the rocks to add to the garden's structural stability.

Hedges can be trimmed in many other shapes than the standard square shape. They can be cut into spiral, cone, and sphere shapes. However, cutting and maintaining these types of shapes is much more challenging. There are metal frames that you can purchase to place around the hedge to make it much easier.
