"It went great! Not a single problem. Kirby is super nice, he came to the house & gave me an estimate which was very reasonable. On the cut day the crew showed up a bit early, got to work right away & didn’t stop until Kirby delivered lunch. They hauled off large pieces of trunk & chipped the smaller stuff & cleaned up well before leaving. I was very impressed."

Additional DBA - IOE LLC. Bret Laird has been creating spectacular environments for over 26 years. His passion is in seeing a concept start from a conversation, to establishing a plan, and then seeing it become reality. He takes pride in customer care and looks forward to developing a long relationship with customers for years to come.

"I have done business with IOE for almost a decade and as I had them do more projects the more frustrated I became. It was a different and much better company under the original owner Bret. Since Cory has taken over, all he does is make the sell and send you the bill. When I have an issue, it will take him over a week to respond. In a recent project I hired IOE for was to replace my fence. The installers used too long of nails which came through on the neighbors side. My neighbor shared his concern for safety and when I contacted Cory, it took him 3 days to respond and longer than a week to resolve. I don't know if they have gotten too busy but when you spend money you expect them to respond especially when it is regarding safety. If you hire IOE here is what you can expect: expensive cost, long/poor response times and a laundry list of excuses from Cory. I would not recommend."

Always Ready Lawn Care (ARLC LLC) is a Veteran Owned and Operated company with a diverse portfolio of services offered to residential and commercial customers in Houston and surrounding areas.

"ARLC LLC - Chris, the owner of ARLC LLC (Always Ready Lawn Care) is wonderful to work with. He presented himself in a very professional fashion when he came to quote on Spring clean-up and weekly lawn care. When the crew who came out for the Spring clean-up and first mowing did not meet the standards Chris and I agreed to, he was out within a couple of days to tend to the yard himself. We could not be happier with the work that has been done."

We are a Professional Landscape Company. We have a Design Center at our facility where you can meet to see and choose your plants, bushes and trees. Our nursery is available to view colors, sizes and types. You can walk our flagstone or stamped concrete patios. You can create or review your landscape plan with your personal advisor. You can sit under the shade of a beautiful arbor and let your immagination take charge. You can visit our customers' homes to see work that we've completed, and in some situations, actually meet and discuss their landscaping experiences with us. We are the best at what we do because we include our customers in the planning stages and throughout the process until their perfect dreams come true.

"Kirsch performed exactly as agreed. They said they could do a full garden makeover for our front entrance in 2 days and they did. New plants, new stone edgings, new plants, a low maintenance black rock base, landscape lighting to improve sidewalk safety and re-routing water sprinklers as needed resulted in a much needed change for the church. The crew was prompt, polite and put in a good day’s work each day. As an added bonus, they started on a second makeover project at another entrance by installing all new stone edging. This project will require some drainage changes and should be completed by summer. When all is finished, we are in discussions with Kirsch about handling on-going garden maintenance. The congregation has been very complementary of the change. It is low maintenance, very attractive and ties into the Kirsch Landscape design of the associated school on the property. This project not only provides a refreshing, uplifting welcome to visitors, it also helps minimize garden maintenance. I would invite anyone in the Houston area to come look at our garden to see the excellent work of this company. Visit us at Good Shepherd Episcopal Church, 2929 Woodland Hills Drive, Kingwood, TX 77339."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Grass varieties such as tall fescue, zoysia, Bermuda, Bahia, and centipede grow best in sandy soil. These types of grass are drought resistant, so they help retain water and nutrients more easily. Consult a local lawn care company to determine the best type of grass to plant in your sandy lawn.

The best soil to put around a house foundation is fill dirt, which is soil that’s specifically designed for covering large areas and filling in holes. Don’t waste money regrading around your foundation with expensive topsoil. Use topsoil only for the last layer of soil, about 5 to 10 inches, so that when you do your foundation planting, your grass and plants will have the nutrients they need to grow.

In most cases, it’s better to remove rocks before adding mulch. Layering the two will restrict drainage and plant health, and can create an unpleasant texture underfoot.

Ensure clear delivery pathways, remove obstacles, and prepare to cover surfaces to protect landscaping areas. Coordinating with the provider for an estimated arrival prepares punctuality.

Before you put down grass seed, you should cultivate your soil or add two inches of topsoil. You should also put down fertilizer at the same time as your seed to prompt healthy growth. Be sure to water after you put down grass seed, especially for the first two weeks.
