"Jessica- the Owner- came to my house to give me an estimate for clearing my front yard, installing landscaping fabric to prevent weeds, removing old bushes, planting new bushes, and finishing with a new landscaping design, including plants, mulch, and pea pebbles. I also had her crew trim a Crepe Myrtle Tree that was over 2 stories high. Jessica and her crew finished the entire project in 1 day! Some of her crew worked for more that 12 hours, until the yard was completely finished in only 1 day!! The crew Within hours of the yard being completely done, several of my neighbors came over, and they all really liked the design of the yard. I am very pleased with how the yard turned out!! I would definitely highly recommend Jessica and her company, A Woman Can Landscaping and Gardening."

"I highly recommend Lawn Services by a Veteran! I had requested quotes from other larger companies in the area and hadn t heard back from them over the span of a week or two. Within 5 minutes of going through home advisor Eric called me and was ready to come cut my grass the same day! We waited a week instead and even though it rained yesterday, he still got out here early today and had the whole yard cut and edged up in an hour! He will definitely be helping us out with our lawn from now and on. He s also reasonably priced and does good honest work! Make sure you tip him because he deserves it."

"Nothing short of excellent. Landon was extremely educated, informative, prompt, and did exactly what he said he was going to do. He showed up on time and got my irrigation system up and running as if it was never down in the first place. Very fair price and outstanding quality work. Will definitely be using Smithfield irrigation from here on out. He also informed me he does full scale landscaping work as well which is always a plus as a one stop shop for all of my landscaping needs to get my yard looking pristine. 10/10 recommend using him for any and all things landscaping related!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

A scattering of leaves won’t pose a problem through the winter, but a thicker layer of leaves may not decompose before the first frost and can instead weigh down your grass and harbor mold or fungi. A thick layer of leaves also cuts off light and air that grass needs to grow. That’s why we suggest removing thick leaf layers within several days if possible. If your lawn goes dormant over the winter and snow has already caught up with you, then remove the leaves in early spring before your grass-growing season starts so your lawn can thrive.

The average cost for landscaping is around $3,500, but prices can range from as low as $200 for simple DIY projects to $14,000 or more for extensive work. Several factors influence the final price, including your geographic location, yard size, project scope, chosen materials, site preparation, and the type of landscaping involved. Professional landscaper labor costs typically range from $50 to $100 per hour.

For a smaller budget, you can focus on softscaping projects like adding mulch, flowers, and shrubs, which might only cost a few hundred dollars if you do the work yourself. A budget of around $5,000 could cover projects like a simple patio, new plants and tree trimming, or a water feature. More extensive hardscaping projects, such as pergolas, patios, and walkways, can push the budget to $14,000 or more. For example, a flower bed installation averages between $800 and $3,000, while landscape lighting installation can cost from $2,000 to $6,000.

Landscape design can be a simple service that includes a drawing or visual representation of how your yard can be set up and optimized for your intended purposes. But it can also include all of the manual labor to make your vision a reality. When you speak with your landscape designer, ensure everyone understands the specific services you want. Some add-on services may include the following:

  • Sourcing and delivery of raw materials

  • Professional installation of features, including pergolas, decks, and pathways

  • Drainage system design

  • Recommendations for specific plants and trees

The best time to plant a privet hedge is autumn, ideally October or early November. Fall is the best time to plant privet hedges because young plants need plenty of water to jump-start their growth, and it typically rains more during this season. However, you can also successfully plant privets in the spring.

By definition, gardeners are experts at designing and maintaining outdoor gardens. Their job duties extend far beyond choosing the right plants for the area, which in itself is a job—they also help maintain the health and well-being of the plants. Gardeners work independently or for landscapers, nurseries, or horticulture design companies.
