"Chance and Scott were punctual, courteous, knowledgeable, and professional. They planted 4 cherry trees for me quickly and even gave me good advice on where to plant them. I'd use them for any landscaping anytime"
"Ken and his coworker finished the job in 90 minutes! I absolutely love how it turned out. He is so friendly and patient with my questions. Ken gave me some advice on what to use to keep my garden beautiful. I would definitely recommend Noble Landscaping and Construction if you're looking to beautify your yard."
"I had a significant erosion problem on a sloped portion of my yard. Putnam Greenspace provided a quote that included the cost of all materials, so I knew what I would be paying. The topsoil was delivered, graded, raked, and seeded. Erosion control netting was laid down and all was done on time. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Putnam Greenspace to anyone. As an addition to this project, Putnam Greenspace also cleared out an old burn pile in my back yard that included concrete blocks and fence wire. This was not a job that I could easily have accomplished - if at all - by hand. The site was left cleared and leveled and ready to go."
"Great service and very professional! He does a great job with lawn care and makes sure everything looks clean and neat. Definitely recommend him to anyone looking for reliable lawn mowing services!"
"I would highly recommend this company. Very honest and true to his word. Does very good work, i am very pleased and looking at a 2nd project with them once I save a bit more money! Money well spent to cover my patio and install 2 fans."
"I had a great experience with Newton Family Maintenance. They went above and beyond in getting the landscaping around my yard cleaned up. Great customer service - I highly recommend"
"If I ever have any more concrete needs, Lenox will be my first call. They did a great job with very reasonable pricing, with excellent communication. Do not hesitate to call for concrete needs."
"After contacting other landscaping, hard scraping and general contractor companies for a patio refurb project, only to be ignored or stood up for appointments, I reached out to Masonry Mata. Agustin, the company owner, responded quickly and made an appointment to meet with my wife and I. He started the work soon after our initial meeting. Masonry Mata gets high marks in all areas, such as meeting commitments to start the work, finish within the estimated timeframe, performed quality work, and paid attention to detail. He and his small crew (ours was a fairly small job) thoroughly cleaned up the job site. Pricing was competitive with other bids we received. However, I believe he provided better value by the conscientious way he and team worked. We have already mentioned three additional projects to Agustin because he think we have (finally) found a skilled professional in the area."
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.
Xeriscaped lawns are far more varied than many gardeners initially assume. The often-pictured rocky and cacti-filled landscapes are just one option. Many wildflower-, herb-, and mulch-covered landscapes follow the same principles without straying too far from the lush and colorful landscapes we have come to know. In fact, there are numerous xeriscape ideas for customizing an energy-efficient lawn to your liking.
Multiple rules of thumb exist when discussing tree planting. When planting a tree, the best rule of thumb is to provide it with everything it needs to survive and thrive in its new environment. That may mean learning about the type of tree you're planting and studying the best methods of taking care of it before purchasing and planting.
Buying plants from a nursery is one thing, but ensuring that they are properly planted is another. While you might not need to hire a landscaper for every plant that you buy from a nursery, it’s a great idea to have their expertise and experience to plant larger items, like burlapped trees or specialty plants like rose bushes. Even better, before making a trip to a nursery to buy new plants, consult a local landscaper to test your soil for pH levels, soil texture, and phosphorus and potassium levels to help determine the best plants for your area.
If you choose to leave gaps between your pavers, you can grow some ground cover plants between them for an organic feel. Look for plants such as creeping thyme, dymondia, jewel mint of Corsica, or clover.
