Customers say: Quality work

"We cannot say enough good things about Mitch and his crew. From our initial meeting it was clear that Mitch was honest and knowledgeable about what options we had and straightforward with his recommendations. He helped us decide on a plan that was right for us and our home. When the time came to complete the job, the crew was thorough, efficient, and hardworking. They answered questions and went above and beyond our expectations with their service. The finished job was better than we could have imagined and we cannot recommend Mitch and his team enough for any lawn, landscaping, or snow removal project you need."

"I had some landscaping done around my house after refinishing the foundation. Scott was very professional and pleasant to work with. The work was done within the time specified and the results were just what I asked for. Very reasonably priced for the work that he did. Would definitely recommend to anyone."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

While you can leave roots in the ground, if you don’t want the shrub to regrow again over time, it’s best not to leave any roots behind. Ensure you remove as much of the shrub as possible, including the root ball and any main roots you can see, to prevent new growth. Some gardeners opt for using a chemical treatment to prevent the stump from growing back, but this can kill beneficial microorganisms living in your soil.

Yes, weeds can still grow in decomposed granite. If properly compacted, it can act as a good weed suppressant, meaning you’ll only pull weeds occasionally. But no ground cover is completely weed-proof. To further prevent weeds, you can try spraying your decomposed granite with distilled white vinegar.

You can fill the holes weeds leave behind with soil or sand to avoid unsightly spots or tripping hazards. If you remove weeds from a grassy area, fill the hole with soil and grass seed, and water regularly to promote grass growth.
