"The customer rep was friendly, knowledgeable, and honest. The price estimate was on par with other landscapers and sadly did not use the service since we had another company come out to winterize our lawn. I definitely do recommend people to call Dos Amigos especially with the great customer service."

"Eric and his guys did a great job. First thing I noticed is Eric is extremely responsive and prompt. Second thing is he explained everything in depth with options. Finally the job itself was great. I had a backyard that had pretty much turned into a mess from mud and poor drainage. Water would just sit for weeks on end to the point that it would start to stink. He made several drainage adjustments to my back yard to include installing a french drain and then I had a hardscape patio installed in place of the the constant sloppy mud I have had for years. The finished product was great I certainly would give it 5 stars and recommend him."

"Mike Pickwoad was referred to us by a neighbor and promptly returned our initial call, following up with a home visit answering all of our questions. He showed up on the agreed upon date and did an outstanding job mulching and landscaping the property. We are going to continue using Mike and would (and have) recommended him to anyone needing landscaping/planting services."

"Very prompt addressing tree down over driveway in early morning emergency on a holiday. This is a huge win! Let's be honest, service in Charlottesville is not great. MC landscaping is stepping it up. Highly recommend but get in line behind my additional work needs."

"Bernard did an excellent job opening up a 60 year old brick courtyard so we had better access to our yard. I was concerned that the change would disrupt the look and feel of the exterior but Bernard's work was exceptional- improving both the function and form of the space. People have commented "it looks like it's always been this way" which is a testament to Bernard's diligence in ensuring the brickwork is cohesive with the existing aesthetic."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best time to plant a tree is in the spring, so the roots have time to grow into the surrounding soil before winter sets in. Some people recommend planting in the late fall. However, planting in the spring reduces the stress on the tree, as it will be emerging from dormancy, giving it the full spring and summer ahead to acclimate and put down roots into the soil.

A rock garden can last indefinitely as long as you properly maintain it. Whether solely made of rocks or with greenery incorporated, they generally last a while, though it may vary based on your climate.

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.

Yes, it is possible to add too little mulch. Anything less than 1 inch will likely result in too little coverage around your plants, allowing weeds to grow through and minimizing the positive effects that a deeper bed of mulch would have, like maintaining proper soil moisture and insulating the ground.

A window flower box should be deep enough that there’s room for a wide selection of plants and the required amount of soil and gravel. Standard flower boxes are 8 inches deep and 8 inches from front to back. Larger is better to increase the variety of plants in the box, but you could run into stability issues as it increases in weight.
