"Excellent job. They came out and gave me ideas, provided a plan and an estimate. Work done turned out great. Three of the smaller plants did not look healthy after about 4 months and the promptly replaced them. Would highly recommend them for your landscaping needs."

"Have used them twice since moving in several years ago. Second time was because I’d redone the back yard so needed to redo the lighting there. Brent and his crew did a great job at a reasonable price. They came when they said they would and cleaned up nicely when they were done. Highly recommend them for landscape lighting and putting in security lighting. Haven’t used them for holiday lighting but have seen some of their work and also recommend for anyone needing such."

"We had an excellent experience with RDZ Landscaping. We communicated what services we wanted and the guys came out and ran through these items and left our yard with that curbside appeal. They mentioned other services that may be needed in the future ie mulch, weed control, power washing with prices so that we know what to expect if and when we decide to add those services. RDZ team arrived on our scheduled date and treated our landscaping as if it was their own. RDZ was very easy to reach, open to the questions I had followed by recommendations. Glad I found a group that I can rely and trust on with my house and poolside landscaping."

"I recently completed a six-month project with NRG Remodeling, and I couldn't be more impressed! The renovation of my 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home, and kitchen went smoothly from start to finish. The communication was top-notch, and the team worked quickly and efficiently, all while maintaining very fair pricing. The quality of the workmanship was outstanding, and the entire experience was stress-free—much smoother than I anticipated. It's rare to find such a professional and personable team, and I’m already planning my next project with them. I would absolutely recommend them for any home renovation and will definitely turn to them for future work!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.

A full backyard renovation can cost between $15,000 and $50,000, depending on the scope of the project. Excavation, materials, and labor costs all contribute to the final cost of updating your outdoor spaces, and expensive features like a pool, a fence, or hardscaping carry a high price tag.

Xeriscaping can be more affordable than traditional landscaping, but it depends on your landscape design. However, you will save on water. If you live in an arid climate or a location prone to droughts, xeriscaping is an especially efficient way of reducing your lawn’s water demand without detracting from the beauty of your yard.

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. 

The soil around your foundation should slope down and away from your home, not toward it. If the grading drops the farther you are from your home, you can enhance the slope by removing more soil. Mark off a few feet from your house and dig up some of this soil. Regrading around your fountain should encourage water to flow away from your home and not collect or “pond.”
