"Excellent job! Josh and Billy did a great job - grading out the old lawn, smoothing it out and providing proper pitch and slope, installing a golf course type drain and seeding and matting the new lawn. They even worked hourly to distribute 10 yards of mulch when I requested it. They also returned to do 15 mulch rings around pine trees, which turned out great. They are qualified to do any and all landscape block and retaining walls - so I may be hiring them in the Spring to work on that. Good prices and quality work - I recommend C&R highly!"
Fountain and pump are installed and working properly, last but not least Mississippi stone for the finishing touches!

"They were slow to start, giving 4 different dates before actually starting but then kept working on the landscaping until completed. Once they were immersed in the landscaping I asked if they could add a fence panel to our existing fence and put another panel on the outside of the yard but still part of original fence. Then they gave 4 different dates to do this but never showed up until Nov 24. They completed the fence finally. I had a metal arch that needed repair or replacement. They left that arch laying in back of the garage this whole time and on the 24th they picked up the arch and left. Never told me about the arch resolution. In April of this year I contacted the owner and asked him to complete the landscaping behind the shed because they took the arch away. He then told me he couldn't find anyone to fix the arch and he said the new ones were cheap metal. I told him then to forget the arch and put the stones there that he had used next to the garage. He has never answered that nor given me a date to complete this space."

"Hardscape step stone replacement with a flag stone. Mike was helpful, reasonable, and just a quality character guy. Always looked out to get me the best deal and bang for my buck. Would hire him again for any landscape or hardscape projects. I love straight shooters."

"Our gravel driveway is 1/4 mile+ long and it was pot-holing really bad. We hired Rob and his crew to lay more 3/4â  TB and recycled asphalt over that. It was compacted, rolled, and turned out fantastic. Itâ  s as close to an actual asphalt driveway as you can get without spending a fortune. Rob is an outstanding communicator and you can tell with his suggestions and willingness to walk you through the process that he has an unmitigated passion for his business and what he does. Iâ  ve hired him twice now, and Iâ  ll do it again. Highly recommend."

"Steve is a good listener and followed through with our agreed on plan. His workmanship is one of a craftsman: precise and elegant. Our project involved building on an old foundation which needed repair work and strengthening, which he did, before proceeding. The end result was just what we had hoped for. We are very glad that Steve and his son Adam took on this project which met all our expectations."

"I would recommend Current Electric to anyone! They are affordable, professional, and customer service oriented. We had Eric as our electrician and he went above and beyond for us. We had a new outlet installed, can lights installed, and ceiling fans installed. He kept us informed the whole time with updates on progress, time frames, and got our input along the way. We will definitely be using Current for all of our electric needs."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

If shade is a priority for you, then panting elm trees is a fine choice. A full mature elm tree has enough aesthetic appeal for some folks that it could add value to your home. 

That said, never plant elm trees too close to your home, sewer line, or sidewalks, as their roots can damage these, which can lead to costly repairs.

The best time to plant a tree is in the spring, so the roots have time to grow into the surrounding soil before winter sets in. Some people recommend planting in the late fall. However, planting in the spring reduces the stress on the tree, as it will be emerging from dormancy, giving it the full spring and summer ahead to acclimate and put down roots into the soil.

The best landscaping for a septic drain field is shallow-rooted grass or native vegetation that helps prevent soil erosion while allowing water to evaporate efficiently. Avoid planting trees, shrubs, or deep-rooted plants near the drain field because the roots can infiltrate pipes and cause blockages. Using mulch or gravel sparingly can also help retain moisture and protect the system without restricting airflow.

The primary disadvantages of xeriscaping are the high upfront cost and the significant labor required to establish it. A xeriscaping project can cost between $3,000 and $24,000 on average. Additionally, the resulting landscape will have less of a traditional green appearance, which may not appeal to everyone's personal taste and could potentially narrow your pool of buyers if you decide to sell your home. However, despite these initial drawbacks, the long-term benefits include saving water, time, and money on lawn maintenance.

Yes, it is possible to add too little mulch. Anything less than 1 inch will likely result in too little coverage around your plants, allowing weeds to grow through and minimizing the positive effects that a deeper bed of mulch would have, like maintaining proper soil moisture and insulating the ground.
