"Rather a large project (started out at $20k and we added on some additional work for $10k more). Rotting railroad tie retaining walls (previous owner several decades earlier) removed and replaced with 2-3 man basalt rocks (300-800lb). Steps put also put into a retaining wall going to a patio. Large, well executed operation with the ability to put big rocks in tight places/structures. Estimate was on target along with communication/time expected. Work done August 2018 and is holding up like it was just installed."

"I contacted Smaller Deliveries to deliver 2 different sizes of gravel so I could rebase my driveway and add a smaller layer. This is the first time I've done a project like this. Mark was always responsive with phone calls. The first day, William brought the larger rock and gave me a helpful bit of pro advice which was spot on. He was able to do a great job spreading gravel with the truck. My driveway is circular and hilly. I had 2 loads and he made our day much less labor intensive. The second day, Mark brought the smaller rock, and also was an artist with his ability to get much of the gravel spread along the driveway. Both days were much less work and now I have a very nice gravel driveway. As a side note, I rented a plate compacter, and that is such a game changer for the end product. I will use Smaller Deliveries for future projects, they are friendly and provide great service."

"Outside line from laundry was relined and an outside clean-out was installed- work was done in 2014. When drain line started backing up recently, I had a different company come out to clear the drain, thinking it was a simple matter of hair and lint build-up. They were unable to clear the drain, because they discovered that the drain was broken and filled with mud! My understanding is that a reline should last quite a bit longer than 6 years. I called NW sewer on December 29 and it's been nearly two weeks and I haven't received the promised call back from the owner."

Plant People Northwest, a Seattle-based landscaping company, specializes in designing and maintaining eco-friendly gardens. Our focus is on creating beautiful outdoor spaces that benefit people and the environment. As an independent, woman-owned small business, we prioritize strong communication, reliability, and a thoughtful approach. We create inspired garden sanctuaries for our clients while also serving pollinators, birds, healthy soil, clean air and water, and the planet as a whole. We use chemical-free, organic products, sustainable practices, and electric power tools. Our certified professional horticulturalists ensure expert plant care. We are licensed, bonded & insured (#PLANEPN832BK) We'd love to meet you and your garden!

"Plant People has been working with us for just over a year now, and we've been delighted with the entire team. They were recommended by my neighbor, who is a fabulous gardener herself. We have a yard full of established trees and shrubs that need thoughtful pruning, and Plant People does a great job working with nature and form, rather than against it. From the start, the owner, Shannon, has been responsive and communicative. She listened well to our needs and came up with a maintenance plan that suited our budget. Her crew is efficient, kind and attentive, and they always leave our garden looking healthy and happy, and our walkway and patio areas clear and tidy. Earlier this year, Shannon came over to advise me on landscape design and help me to plan out the next phase of our garden. The quote was very reasonable, but she was flexible in adjusting it (allowing us do some of the easier tasks, breaking it into phases, etc.). She has wonderful ideas, great vision and a wealth of knowledge, and I can't wait to work with her on this project when our budget allows!"

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Landscape boulders, especially porous stones like sandstone or granite, can crack or break over time. Cracks occur when water seeps into the surface of the stone and freezes. The risk is highest when it rains during the day and temperatures freeze overnight since the moisture has time to penetrate deeper into the rock before expanding.

Depending on the size of the river rock and the density of your soil, add woven landscape fabric or sand under river rock. The extra layer will ensure your river rock sits evenly and doesn't create puddles or uneven areas throughout the design. In some cases, nothing is necessary beneath river rock, but be sure to speak with a landscaper to keep your landscaping looking sharp.

If you hire a professional landscaper, you could expect to pay between $90 and $660 to install three cubic yards of river rock. (That’s based on the average river rock installation cost of $30 to $220 per cubic yard.) However, the exact price depends on the kind of river rock you choose. Crushed limestone and riprap are some of the more affordable options, while boulders and Arizona river rock are pricier.

Most experts recommend a quarter-inch layer of compost for best results, and you will need about .77 cubic yards of material per 1,000 square feet. To measure how much compost to use, take the square footage of your yard and multiply it by .77, then divide that number by 1,000.

Artificial turf usually requires some sort of base. If you’re installing the grass over soil, you’ll want to add a weed barrier (weeds can damage your fake grass) and an artificial grass sub-base . Typically, this is a mixture of gravel and sand, like crushed miscellaneous base (CMB) or decomposed granite. If you're placing turf over concrete, you can skip the sub base and use a padded underlayment.
