"They provided creative ideas, went over and above expectations, and were very dependable. We felt super lucky. Everything turned out better than we thought. We love our new driveway, yard, and pond! They had the equipment and know how to do our project. They had a can do attitude, were very pleasant, and cared about doing what we wanted/needed. We plan on having them back for more landscape jobs. Thank you RE Landscaping!"

"Very pleased w Lester and his crew!! Lester is very kind, personable and professional. A man of his word, he got the work started and done in a more than timely manner: definitely a hardworking team. I am very pleased with the results. Not only did he address the major issues I'd hired him for, he provided (and implemented) suggestions to improve the landscaping of my entire property. It looks fantastic. Lester was easy to get ahold of and very responsive in all communication. I highly recommend In The Rough Stonework!!"

"I started my services with Mitchell and Yardwork Lawn Care Services last summer. He was amazing to work with and has done a fantastic job with everything. From setup to maintenance and everything between. Plus the neighbors and even random people just driving by always stop to check out the little robot mowing our lawn. Keeps the lawn tidy without ever having to worry about it. Absolutely recommend."

"We bought some land up by Bloomer, WI a couple years ago that had a lot of overgrowth. Pat came in and cleared a lot of brush, including some 12 inch diameter trees. It was awesome how he was able to mulch everything onsite. It looks so much better! Additionally, he saved me $$$ not having to pay him or someone else to come haul away branches. He was in and out in the exact time he quoted me. I would (already have actually!) recommend him to my neighbors."

"Zach and Jason did a great job with a somewhat unusual project of building a Catio (i.e. Cat Patio). It included replacing an old retaining wall and also framing and building the Catio. We appreciated their can-do attitude."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Hedges can be trimmed in many other shapes than the standard square shape. They can be cut into spiral, cone, and sphere shapes. However, cutting and maintaining these types of shapes is much more challenging. There are metal frames that you can purchase to place around the hedge to make it much easier.

The truth is, there really is no such thing as a 100% deer-proof plant. Deer will decimate even the prickliest flora if they’re hungry enough. However, there are plenty of beautiful plants that deer don’t necessarily enjoy. These include thistles, wisteria vines, sword ferns, and beautyberries.

Deer are herbivores, and they love vegetable gardens as much as Peter Rabbit. If you don’t want to fence in your entire property, consider creating an attractive raised-bed veggie garden with mesh fencing around it to keep out deer and other critters.

A window flower box should be deep enough that there’s room for a wide selection of plants and the required amount of soil and gravel. Standard flower boxes are 8 inches deep and 8 inches from front to back. Larger is better to increase the variety of plants in the box, but you could run into stability issues as it increases in weight.

Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don’t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.

The best way to landscape your front yard on a budget is to invest in hiring a professional for hardscaping—things like upgrading walkways, redoing driveways, and installing partitions around garden beds. You can often do the softscaping yourself—think laying down mulch, caring for your lawn, removing weeds, and planting flowers and shrubs. It’s also almost always worthwhile to pay a professional for routine yard maintenance, as this dramatically improves curb appeal and delivers above 100% ROI in most cases.
