"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

Yes, you can put topsoil over sand to encourage grass growth. The topsoil will help to improve water retention and promote grass roots’ development, making it a recommended step of the seeding process. Adding a layer of topsoil will provide additional nutrients to the sandy soil, helping the grass grow and remain healthy through many seasons.

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.

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.

You should avoid planting grass, shrubs, plants, and trees in freezing temperatures, as the ground can get frozen and become too hard for proper root growth. It’s best to plant in the fall to allow your plants to establish root systems before the first frost. Landscaping when the average temperature in your area is between 50 and 60 degrees will usually deliver the best results.

The soil around your foundation should slope down and away from your home, not toward it. If the grading drops the farther you are from your home, you can enhance the slope by removing more soil. Mark off a few feet from your house and dig up some of this soil. Regrading around your fountain should encourage water to flow away from your home and not collect or “pond.”
