"Madeline did an excellent job with removing weeds and weed block (sometimes 2 layers), movIng schrubs and hostas. She also dug a new border and laid down 3" of new cedar mulch which she got from Lowes and put around existing shrubs and Hydranga. I would highly recommend Madeline for your landscaping project. She has good landscaping ideas and suggestions and is reasonably priced. She is a very personable and extremely hardworkng person. She also is reliable and shows up when she says she will. We were very happy with the outcome of our landscaping project! Please see pictures."

"Excellent! The Team (3-4 Men) was diligent, efficient, polite and hard-working. They left the site immaculate. Their work has already received compliments from neighbors and others. The Supervisor visited the site to evaluate the work done; he, too, was very professional. I hope to work with Jorge's Landscaping again."

"Gabe did an incredible job putting in a french drain on the side of our house and regrading most of our yard. We have hsd water coming into our basement through our basement window wells. Upon inspection Gus told us a regrade and French drain would fix this issue. He planted new grass and routed all the gutter pipes to the drainfield. A job very well done. Gabe is a hard working, responsivle young man and we would recommend his company to anyone."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

If you choose to leave gaps between your pavers, you can grow some ground cover plants between them for an organic feel. Look for plants such as creeping thyme, dymondia, jewel mint of Corsica, or clover.

Buying plants from a nursery is one thing, but ensuring that they are properly planted is another. While you might not need to hire a landscaper for every plant that you buy from a nursery, it’s a great idea to have their expertise and experience to plant larger items, like burlapped trees or specialty plants like rose bushes. Even better, before making a trip to a nursery to buy new plants, consult a local landscaper to test your soil for pH levels, soil texture, and phosphorus and potassium levels to help determine the best plants for your area.

You may need to lay sod on the areas you dug up once you get the okay from the contractor. It will take about 30 to 45 days for the sod to take root. Consult a local sod installer to get an accurate estimate of the timeline of your specific yard-enhancement project.

There are some instances when you can use extra drywall in your garden. Ideally, unused scraps of new drywall are best for amending soil without the concern of additional chemicals or mold. However, drywall with paint, mold, or potential asbestos requires specialized disposal by a professional and should be kept out of your garden.

Hedge plants are available in almost every size, from seedlings to fully mature, six-foot-tall shrubs. Planting smaller plants is much easier and more cost-effective. However, it can take years for the plants to reach maturity and create a full hedge. Garden centers and specialty retailers sometimes offer three to four-foot wide plants that you can simply plant next to each other for an instant full hedge.
