"Jesse Landesman and crew did an excellent job for us! He removed an existing retaining wall that was falling down and built us a new one. They were punctual, neat and hard working. Communication with Jesse was very easy and quick. I would definitely hire him again!"

"Great service. He goes above and beyond. Has been my lawn guy this entire season and all transactions have been made over the phone with no necessity to meet in person, which is convenient for me because I’m always on the road. He handles all lawn maintenance for my Gypsy Escapes Vacation rental business with no issue. He’s even made himself available to be hired for some handyman work which I desperately needed and he got it done within 48 hours. I will continue to utilize his services as long as he is available."

"Green Brothers were exceptional from the planning to the final product. I could not be more pleased with the workmanship and thought that went into my new landscape project. Scott, Charley, David, Amy and the rest of the crew were kind, thoughtful, neat and tidy, careful with, my property and provided me with a superior product. I would gladly recommend Green Brothers to anyone looking for a landscape to beautify their home and lawn. Cathy Wacker"

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

No, gravel and crushed rock are different. Crushed rock is made in a quarry and has sharp, jagged edges. It’s most commonly used for building and construction.

Gravel naturally occurs in river beds or lakes and features smooth edges, making it a better choice for landscaping or other decorative areas. Like crushed stone, gravel can also be found in quarries, but it’s typically due to rock-on-rock erosion rather than machinery.

Gravel is a versatile option for home projects. It is low-maintenance and cost-effective compared to other materials. In addition, gravel provides excellent drainage, reducing the risk of flooding in your yard or driveway. Pairing gravel with a weed barrier fabric during installation can mitigate the risk of weed growth.

When it rains, decomposed granite can become muddy and mushy in texture and start to wash away, leading to erosion of the surface. Decomposed granite’s inability to endure heavy rainfall is one of its biggest drawbacks.

Generally, you want the soil for your edible plants to have good drainage, organic matter for nutrients, a loose texture (like loam soil), and a balanced pH level. However, the type of plants you're growing will dictate the exact characteristics your soil needs to thrive. For example, brussels sprout prefers more acidic soil, while broccoli prefers more alkaline soil. 

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.
