"After checking out our back yard fence, Mason emailed an estimate within a couple of days. His price was better than a couple of other companies. It was another 4 weeks before they could get to it, but it was worth the wait. They replaced 4 rotting posts with treated pine, and put up 56 ft. of 6 ft. high x 6-inch western red cedar pickets with treated pine 2 x 4 rails. They used weather coated screws rather than nails. The guys did a really nice job and finished the job in one day. Mason and his guys were easy to deal with, and Mason gave me a follow up call a couple of days after the job was done."

"Luis and Oscar came out, inspected my five trees, informed me what they would do, including informing me one of the trees I thought might be dying, appeared to be good, and proceeded to give me a quote on the price to trim the five trees. After getting quotes from several others and reading reviews for all, I hired Prados. Luis, Mario and team came out as scheduled and I am very satisfied with their work, communication and price, which was very reasonable. I would hire them again and recommend them"

Yes, weeds can still grow in decomposed granite. If properly compacted, it can act as a good weed suppressant, meaning you’ll only pull weeds occasionally. But no ground cover is completely weed-proof. To further prevent weeds, you can try spraying your decomposed granite with distilled white vinegar.

Landscaping prices are sometimes negotiable, but it depends on the professional with whom you’re working. In most cases, you’ll have a better chance of negotiating prices down the more work you have done. Your pro might be willing to discount labor if they’re guaranteed a large job. You can also ask your landscaper to recommend more affordable materials that will still bring your vision to life to save.
It is possible to DIY complete hardscaping projects, but in most cases, hiring a professional is best to get the job done correctly. Hardscaping—including installing patios, decks, retaining walls, walkways, and water features—is challenging and time-consuming, so the money you spend on a professional is typically worth it. Not only will the quality be better, but you could avoid problems that come along with a lack of hardscaping experience, like drainage issues that can lead to costly foundation damage and leaks in your home.
The most important thing to put under a rock garden is the appropriate soil. The specific soil needed will depend on the type of plants you’re growing as well as the environment you live in. You can also put non-woven or woven fabric under the rocks to add to the garden's structural stability.
