"It was great! They arrived exactly on time, worked quietly & efficiently, stacked the wood we wanted to keep just as we asked them to do and hauled the rest away. They cleaned up so good that, if it were not for the remaining stump, we would hardly know a tree had been there! The price was very good. We had multiple estimates and we chose them because of their fair & reasonable price. We would definitely hire them again!"

They just finished so I can't confirm everything was done right until the walkway goes in but they certainly seemed to know what they were doing. The best irrigation company I have ever worked with by far."

"Im not a person who generally writes a review but felt this was important and I don?t understand my experience because all of the other reviews are glowing ones. I will give the company 2 stars as he was on time , he came out and looked at the area I needed help with, made suggestions and then followed through with an estimate of putting sod down, putting a drain in, aerating and seeding and then even calling to see how it was doing. I really had high hopes but that?s where it ended. We watered and did everything we were supposed to but NOT ONE piece of grass came up. I spoke to Marcus the owner about it and he said that was unusual and I agreed with him because when Va Green has aerated and seeded the grass has come up very thick each year( guess I should have stuck with them). I told him how disappointed I was and he said he could come back and reseed and that?s the last I?ve heard from him and that was around the first part of October and now we?re at the end of November a little "

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

Wooden pergolas can last five and 12 years as long as you maintain your pergola. Make sure to clean, stain, and seal wood pergolas every two to three years to protect the wood from insect damage, rot, and decay. 

Vinyl or aluminum pergolas can last a lifetime. The only problems you may encounter with these pergola materials are weather-related—heavy rain storms or snowfalls. Check the stability of your pergola every season. You may need to add new supports or replace broken beams on an as-needed basis.

For optimal sun exposure, strategically place your trellises along the northern boundary of your garden bed or adjacent to a fence or wall. Conversely, consider situating the trellises on the southern side in sun-drenched locales to create soothing shade for heat-sensitive plants, effectively screening and sheltering them from the scorching summer sun.

When comparing redwood vs. cedar fences, you’ll typically find a redwood fence costs more to install. The material alone runs from $8 to $20 per linear foot, and labor can cost up to $15 per linear foot, given how complex redwood is to work with. Cedar fences cost between $2 to $4 per linear foot for materials, and labor costs are likely closer to $10 per linear foot. Here are some cedar fence ideas if you’re looking to go the more affordable route.

A pergola needs to be anchored, and typically, concrete is the best anchor option. Pergolas should be anchored to a concrete slab or concrete footings, and this is commonly required by municipal building codes. When applying for a permit to install a pergola, be sure to check the anchoring requirements as well.
