"It was great -- Nick the landscape designer understood completely what I had in mind, and he produced an excellent design. When his crew arrived, they knew exactly what they had to do, and they were very courteous and professional. I would definitely hire this company again."

"Roman’s team did a beautiful job with the paver patio and sod installation. It was transformational! He accommodated all our requests, such as adding compost in my garden bed and adding a cement small slab for a pizza oven. Would definitely recommend for any landscaping needs."

"I HIGHLY recommend Alsonso Landscape Service. I received 4 quotes from area landscapers prior to selecting Alonso. Of the 4 they were the only ones to get my quote back to me within 24 hours and it was by far the most detailed. Even offering suggestions that I hadn't thought of to maximize my space. I couldn't be happier with the way the project turned out. Prices were fair and the team was very friendly."

"Gridline Landscape did a fantastic job on both of our tree and shrub removals. Tom is a friendly and professional guy making the process so much easier. We were able to schedule an appointment right away to get a quote and within a week the project was completed. He took great care with the surrounding property as well as cleaning up the area after the job was finished. The prices were competitive but still more affordable than the other companies. I highly recommend giving them a call for your landscaping needs."

"We are very pleased with the landscape repairs and sod installation completed by Extreme Lawns. work was completed as promised and for a reasonable price. Brad even went the extra mile to ensure our new sod was monitored and watered while we were away for a short period of time right after installation."

"Mike did what would have taken me about a day and a half fall lawn clean up in less than an hour. Very reasonable. If I need another leaf cleanup before Thaksgiving, he will get the call! He will be my go to guy for the spring yard and garden prep."

"They have done some good work with snow removal; my only comments would be (depending upon numbers of clients) earlier arrival, and a bit closer to the ground removal (I think they use a truck to do the work, so maybe that is why the drive does not seem as clear as it could be?)."

"I started off wanting a simple concrete work done on a pathway and patio. Marvin showed me paver options that I hadn't previously considered and even though they increased the price of the project, I am so much happier with the look of the end result. Everything is beautiful. The crew did fabulous work. My husband and I are looking forward to enjoying our new outdoor spaces for years to come."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.

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.

If you are xeriscaping a lawn from scratch, your best bet for preparing the lawn is to work with a xeriscaping specialist in your area. The most common first step to making the transformation, however, will be to remove the turfgrass from your lawn. The subsequent steps will often include amending the soil to support new plants and installing low-drip or drip irrigation systems.

Late August, September, and mid-October are the ideal months for planting a young tree. However, the best time to plant a tree ultimately depends on when the weather transitions to fall-like conditions and eventually winter frost. As long as the hottest days of summer have passed and the ground hasn’t frozen yet, you can still successfully plant trees.

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.
