"I was overcharged on my project to scalp, remove dead shrubs and clean back yard (turf) and patio. They charge $150 per hour , team of 3 workers. Did a great job and the owner was very professional; however, when I received my invoice, it was for 3 hours more than time spent on the job! They charged for the hour they were at lunch and time to go to the landfill to dump which we were not quoted! I spoke with Judd and he did correct the invoice and apologized 3 times. Just disappointed it happened to begin with! I felt like he should have made certain of the time before he invoiced me! Felt like I was taken advantage of!"
"His crew was very professional and knowledgeable about all kinds of construction work. They showed up on time and got the job done fast with great attention to detail. I will highly recommend them to anyone looking for construction or anything around the house. There is nothing these guys can't do. You must give them a shot!"
"The owner (Jake) came out to my ranch and quoted draining, clearing and expanding an existing 1 Acre pond/tank. He explained the size we could achieve by replacing the existing dam and capturing additional drainage. This was the third bid I received and were all within 10%. However the other two bids would have left me with a cleaned out, mud free 1 acre pond, and Jakes bid left me with a 3.7 acre 14 foot deep lake. After he completed the first existing pond/tank on my ranch I had him move on to another old existing tank/pond for cleaning and expansion. After completing the second 2 acre lake, I had him dig a new lake in a far corner of the ranch that caught run off that we were losing. This one ended up being 1.7 acres and has ended up being a duck magnet. We donâ t live there full time and jake did a great job of sending pictures and calling every other day to give updates. All the spillways were lined with rock that he saved from the excavation. Since all the lakes have been completed, I have had him freshen up and regrade some ranch roads, and clear pasture and fence lines. Would recommend him for any dirt project"

"Robbie showed up on time and completed the project in a few short hours. My pond had been growing briars and brush for years to where you could not even fish anymore. Now it looks like a golf coarse!"
Plant a peach tree right at the end of your local dormancy period, likely at the very end of winter after the last frost when you can dig into the soft soil. Plan your backyard gardening season, including when planting peach trees, based on the frost schedule predicted in your local hardiness zone.
Hedge plants are available in almost every size, from seedlings to fully mature, six-foot-tall shrubs. Planting smaller plants is much easier and more cost-effective. However, it can take years for the plants to reach maturity and create a full hedge. Garden centers and specialty retailers sometimes offer three to four-foot wide plants that you can simply plant next to each other for an instant full hedge.
Common features in lakefront landscaping projects include native and water-tolerant plants, stone paths, docks or piers, seating areas, and erosion control solutions to create a harmonious integration with the waterfront setting.
Palm trees are relatively easy to grow, especially when planting different varieties in their native habitats. While regular watering is crucial in the first couple of months while the palm develops a strong root ball, palms typically require minimal maintenance once they’re established. You’ll need to prune palm fronds once or twice per year to keep it in tip-top shape.
If you’re hiring a landscaper to plant the garden of your dreams, you do not need to provide them with plants that you bought yourself from a nursery. While you certainly can provide your landscaper with plants, keep in mind that some nurseries provide discounts to landscaping companies, therefore potentially lowering your materials cost. Beyond the cost of the plants themselves, you need to have additional materials like topsoil and mulch for the project. Most likely, your landscaper can get a discount on these materials as well, so it’s worth speaking with them before making any large purchases.
