"The Lawn Stewards did a fantastic job on my backyard landscaping. They leveled, installed sod and two retaining walls. They are very dependable. Did what they said they were going to do and showed up when they said they would. I would not hesitate to hire them again! In fact they are going to give me a quote on a second job. I would have given them 10 stars!"

"The work looks great, they came and leveled an area for my pool and found roots that were not removed by a previous landscaper. They removed the roots and leveled the area finishing with sand. I donâ t have the pool set up yet hope it all works perfect ð ð »"

"The 2 man team cleared a massive collapsed shed in my back yard. They were so pleasant and didn't stop until they had everything we wanted out of our yard. This included odds and ends that were around our house. All of which was included in the price. I highly recommend these guys. Awesome job!!!"

"DJ and the crew were AMAZING! I could not have asked for a better company to work with. I was living in another state when my driveway was being done and DJ made it so easy to coordinate the project with me. The driveway came out fantastic and their attention to detail was impeccable. If you are looking to get your driveway done or other concrete services, please look no further. I assure you, you will not be disappointed."

"I was looking for low maintenance flowerbeds in my front yard and Carolina Landscaping gave me exactly what I asked for. The work was very well done and communication was great from the beginning. A quick drawing was provided to show the design work as we were completely removing shrubs and planting new ones. I am definitely planning to use them for my backyard project."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Since the nature of the landscaping project can heavily influence the overall cost, it helps to understand what different types of landscaping projects cost on average. For example:

  • Plant a tree: $100–$2,000

  • Build a retaining wall: $3,250–$9,200

  • Reseed a lawn: $450–$1,700

  • Install a water fountain: $950–$4,800

  • Install a paver patio: $2,400–$7,000

  • Install a concrete walkway: $1,200–$2,400

  • Install a flower bed: $800–$3,000

  • Landscape lighting: $2,000–$6,000

The best landscaping for a septic drain field is shallow-rooted grass or native vegetation that helps prevent soil erosion while allowing water to evaporate efficiently. Avoid planting trees, shrubs, or deep-rooted plants near the drain field because the roots can infiltrate pipes and cause blockages. Using mulch or gravel sparingly can also help retain moisture and protect the system without restricting airflow.

Many ways to landscape a steep slope on a budget exist. Avoiding expensive retaining wall construction is the first step. Consider creating a rocky slope with boulders or large stones, or think about planting perennials that return every year with a single investment. Transplanting small trees from elsewhere on your property is also possible and can help to stabilize steep slopes without purchasing new ones. 

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

The best type of rock for landscaping depends on your specific project and needs, as different rocks are suited for different applications. For covering large areas or creating an affordable driveway, consider gravel, but note that it can wash away in flowing water. For water features, river rocks are a good option. Flagstone and cobblestone are ideal for aesthetically pleasing patios and walkways. If you are building a stone wall, fieldstone or small boulders are up to the task. Large boulders and landscape rocks work well as statement pieces, to fill empty space, or to indicate boundaries, but be mindful that they can overwhelm smaller gardens. The best approach is to first define your landscaping project and then select the rock type that best fits that purpose.
