"Dreamscapes was EXCELLENT from start to finish. We needed to redo landscaping in our front yard due to some drainage issues & Tom’s design was spot on. Larry & the crew are nearly finished installing the project, and it is exactly what we had hoped.-plants, pathway, drainage issue resolved. The crew was polite, hard working, especially in 100degree heat, and cleaned up the work site every day. I can’t recommend them highly enough, from design to execution & installation. It was truly a custom design fitted specifically to our needs. If you want something special, use Dreamscape Landscaping."

"I can’t say enough good things about Swannys LawnCares junk removal services. I had TONS of junk that had accumulated over many years of Hording. The neighbors called the police on me several times and were threatening to evict me because it smelled so bad. Due to disabilities I have (extremely obese and functioning schizophrenia) I was unable to remove the junk myself. Every other company I called refused to give me their service because of how bad it smelled and their worries about hazards associated with it. BUT Swannys Lawncare did it no problem and I think actually enjoyed it!! The best!!!"

"The Marlowe crew did a beautiful job on our patio extension and fire pit. They stayed in touch with us on every detail and made sure that our expectations were met. We made a change or two after the project was underway and Jake and his crew were very accommodating. These guys showed up on time, were courteous and kept our yard as neat as possible while they were working. We will consider Marlowe’s We Care Company for future improvements to our home. Ray and Sheree Mosby"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

Pavers are one of the most affordable methods of creating an elevated outdoor space. Gravel is an equally affordable alternative. If your budget permits, you can look into building a permeable driveway to ensure proper drainage. Grid pavers, pervious concrete, brick, and brick pavement are all effective materials. Permeable driveways are great options, especially if you live in an area with heavy rainstorms.

The best type of rock for landscaping depends on your specific project and needs, as different rocks are suited for different applications. For covering large areas or creating an affordable driveway, consider gravel, but note that it can wash away in flowing water. For water features, river rocks are a good option. Flagstone and cobblestone are ideal for aesthetically pleasing patios and walkways. If you are building a stone wall, fieldstone or small boulders are up to the task. Large boulders and landscape rocks work well as statement pieces, to fill empty space, or to indicate boundaries, but be mindful that they can overwhelm smaller gardens. The best approach is to first define your landscaping project and then select the rock type that best fits that purpose.

A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.

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.
