MRZ Contracting is a family owned custom, design/build firm specializing in outdoor living environments, project management and landscape master plan design and installation. Our horticultural philosophy is to achieve the most beautiful, functional and enduring environment with as low maintenance as possible. This process begins with the initial client consultation and property inspection. These considerations are then applied to the design process which is produced in 3-D CAD. We believe in providing the client with a beautiful yard by selecting plants with different growth characteristics, foliage variations/colors/flowering periods and accents like moss boulders and mortared stone borders. The benefit of all this is a “living, breathing, ever-changing environment” with natural beauty. The best part is… you can see how it will look at maturity with the viewpoints and video produced by our CAD program. If this approach to “yard creation” interests you, give us a call. We are a family owned and operated business with over 30 years of experience and a strong focus on customer satisfaction. We believe in and deliver a custom, quality contractor/customer experience.

"Excellent! We used Clayton at MRZ Contracting to completely redo our front and back yard. I had been wanting to do something for 10 years and finally made it happen! He got his cool 3D design to me and worked with me on final design. His staff was great, kept the area clean each night and created the yard I now love. Included taking down a large tree, installing new front walkway, new stone edging and adding to the backyard patio. We wanted an easy to maintain yard so we have rocks versus grass to cut. Love the recommendations in plants. Realize that due to covid and the Feb 2021 freeze, things happened slower than expected but wow! Love the results! I highly recommend Clayton and MRZ to all of you who need a beautiful redesign of your landscaping."

"Had front porch and walkway stoned. Started cracking almost immediately. Material between stones fell apart quickly and you can feel some rock moving under your feet. They kept saying they would come fix but never did. We had used Chiba’s for a back patio which was excellent work, which is why we asked them to do this additional work. Never again…..does not stand behind their work"

We are a local Christian / Veteran owned and operated business. We have been in Frisco Texas since 1999. We are members of The Better Business Bureau, Ambassador with The Frisco Chamber of Commerce and The Prosper Chamber of Commerce. We offer residential and commercial property maintenance. We bill once a month and do offer year round contract with a set monthly bill to commercial properties. At this time, we can only provide weekly mowing within the Frisco city limits & Prosper. We do offer Landscape Design & Installations (Landscape Make-Overs starting at $2,500) in the surrounding cities like: McKinney, Prosper, Little Elm & Plano.

"Working with Christal and Clay Davis on this project was an outstanding experience. The design process with Christal was collaborative and she really listened to what we were looking for in a front yard design. Her willingness to design something a bit out of the ordinary and to guide us on the process was one of the best experiences I’ve encountered. She worked closely with us throughout the design process and often suggested options that kept our plans well within our max budget. Our front yard is beautiful, restful, and expertly crafted thanks to the work Christal, Clay, and their crew did to make Christal’s design a reality. They truly transformed our yard into a modern oasis that we love to spend time in because it reflects us. I never could have imagined how much more we use our front yard now and how lovely it is. We highly recommend their expertise and services. We have been clients of their lawn service for years and are glad we went with them for this landscaping project!"

"Impact Landscaping did a fabulous job!! We have 2 huge flowerbeds in front of our house. Erik came up with a plan for flowers that we love! We ended up hiring the company to do mowing, care for the beds, and seasonally change annuals - for only a small amount more than we were currently paying for just mowing. Our house is close to our neighborhood greenbelt and on a busier road. We are constantly having people stop and look at the flowerbeds. ?"

"Initially Elizabeth was responsive thru the selling process but once she got paid things went sideways quick, she would duck phone calls and be slow on email responses in my opinion. Overall a truly awful experience with Elizabeth and Splendid Gardens. The most frustrating part was Elizabeth's communication style which at best I'd describe as immature, caddy and unprofessional. On any project it is understandable that miscommunications can and do happen, but when ours arouse she frequently did not return phone calls. Then there was the over promise and under delivery. We were assured the plants would live and if not they would be replaced. The plants did not make it thru the winter and when we reached out to Elizabeth she not only didn't replace them, she refused to come out to look at them, stating that it was "too early in the year" to know if a plant is dead or not. Well, I may not be a horticulturalist but I know a dead plant when I see one. Elizabeth said she would have to wait 3 additional weeks to look. She never showed or responded to us again. The whole experience was disappointing and a bit surprising from my perspective. We paid quite a bit of money, most of which went to the landscaping understandably. The flowers, her communication style and honoring her word should have been the easy part for her."

We are a Dallas based landscape and irrigation company established in 2001. With over 50 years of experience, we take great pride in offering our clients exceptional quality at a competitive price. Our #1 goal is to insure that you are happy with your investment for years after the work is completed. We offer a wide range of options and services specializing in residential landscape, hardscape, and irrigation projects. Backed by years of satisfied customers and experience, you will be happy that you chose Stenson Landscaping for your project. **Currently due to staffing we are only doing estimates on projects of $5,000 or more **

"Stenson Landscaping did an outstanding job on a complicated project in my front yard. I was looking to have the following done: 1) repair all existing stone landscaping walls (which were in bad shape); 2) demo the old front walkway and pour a new one with a different pattern of stairs; 3) build stone retaining walls down the sides of the front walkway and across much of the front of the yard, and have those walls match the existing stonework; 4) fill behind the walls with gravel and filter fabric for drainage and fill dirt for planting; 5) update all irrigation to the new layout and ground level, including installing drip irrigation lines for future planter bowls. Stenson did an outstanding job at the project. They worked to detailed specifications and designs that I provided them, and were open to feedback and willing to make changes on the fly as needed. The stonemasonry in particular is outstanding - the walls are very solid, built with rebar and concrete footers, and really look incredible. The change in the look of my front yard is night and day. I'm thrilled with the outcome of the project and would absolutely hire them again."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Beyond landscaping, limestone has multiple uses. For example, there are multiple pros and cons to limestone countertops, such as a lower cost compared to other types of stone and heat resistance. Limestone is also a key ingredient in limewash, a type of paint with a chalky texture. Other uses for limestone include siding, retaining walls, and mixed into cement.

You don’t have to spend a small fortune to make big changes to your landscape. You can achieve a lot for well under $5,000, especially if you like a DIY challenge. With a landscaping budget of $5,000, you could tackle a project like building a simple patio or deck, sprucing up your existing landscape with new plants, mulching, and tree trimming, or adding an impressive water feature. You’ll have no shortage of possibilities if you budget wisely.

A 50-pound bag of pea gravel equals approximately one-half of a cubic foot. That amount will cover a three-square-foot area to a depth of about two inches. A three-square-foot area with equal-length sides is approximately 1.73 feet by 1.73 feet, or about 20.75 inches on each side.

Mulching any time of year can attract termites, so there’s no added risk in the fall. The important thing to remember is that termites are attracted to rotting wood, so you need to lay a thin enough layer that won’t trap too much moisture and lead to rotting. A layer between 1 and 4 inches thick should provide all the benefits you’re looking for without attracting termites.

Yes, most providers offer pickup and delivery as part of the service. Confirm with your contractor.
