Joey D. says, "We recently hired Edge Landscaping to address a deteriorating and too-narrow concrete paver walkway leading to our townhomes, and we are pleased with the results. From the initial consultation to the final touches, they demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and commitment to quality. First and foremost, Tony with Edge Landscaping provided a detailed estimate with transparent pricing. We appreciated the clear breakdown of costs for materials and labor, leaving no room for surprises. This gave our HOA confidence in their quote and helped us understand the value they were offering. What truly set Edge Landscaping apart was their emphasis on proper installation. They thoroughly explained the importance of proper grading and foundation preparation to ensure the longevity and stability of the expanded walkway. This wasn't just a quick fix; they were invested in doing the job right the first time. We also appreciated how they accommodated our design ideas and preferences. They listened carefully to our needs for the expanded walkway and offered helpful suggestions to enhance the overall look and functionality. The final outcome vastly improves the quality and experience of our homes. Even after the main work was completed, Edge Landscaping demonstrated their commitment to customer satisfaction by providing a follow-up site visit to address and touch up a few minor items. This level of attention to detail and willingness to ensure everything was properly installed is commendable. Beyond their workmanship, Tony and the Edge Landscaping team was pleasant and empathetic to work with. They were communicative, respectful of our property and neighbors, and genuinely cared about the outcome. They transformed our outdated and narrow walkway into a beautiful and functional feature that has significantly improved the curb appeal of our townhomes. I would recommend Edge Landscaping to anyone looking for a professional and good-quality landscape contractors."See more

How often should a gardener come?

How often your gardener should come depends on what you’re looking for and your budget. Typically, homeowners prefer a gardener to come once per week, several times a month or once per month. This may include services like tidying up the garden or trimming and tidying hedges. Some people hire these tasks out once per year. For more regular services like mowing the lawn, weeding and trimming, you could hire someone to come every week or every other week. If you do some of the work yourself, you can have them come out less frequently.

How much does it cost to landscape your front yard?

Prices for landscaping your front yard can range from a few hundred dollars to tens of thousands of dollars, depending on the scale of your front yard project. Your landscaping price will reflect how much change you implement, how much labor is required, and the cost of materials.

Landscaping is typically made up of softscaping and hardscaping. Softscaping refers to selecting trees, bushes, flowers and plants to achieve a desired aesthetic and to meet goals such as having a drought-tolerant yard. Hardscaping refers to moving earth, installing structures, and putting in decorative stonework, sidewalks or lighting. For softscaping, you may want to hire a landscape designer to consult on your plants and layout, and then do the digging and planting yourself or hire a gardner to handle the heavy lifting. A landscape designer’s hourly rate may range from $50 to $150 or more. If you want a turnkey approach, meaning someone who works with you to create the vision and then executes all the work, landscaping pricing will typically come down to a cost per square foot rather than an hourly rate. It’s a solid investment: Great landscaping can add up to 28 percent value to your home.

How much does it cost to have landscaping done?

Professional landscaping can help reinvent your outdoor space, boost your curb appeal and get a major return on investment with. Landscaping can encompass anything from adding new plants, trees and shrubs, to leveling the ground and laying sod for a lawn, to building in hardscaping such as sidewalks, water features or retaining walls. The national average landscaping price is $10,160. Landscaping prices can be far lower (with hourly rates ranging from $50 to $150) if you’re only seeking professional help with softscaping or seeking consultation on landscape design. Softscaping means adding or changing horticultural elements, such as planting a garden or adding a hedge. Hardscaping is where costs can really start to rise. Hardscaping requires labor and heavy equipment to excavate the earth; you may need to pour concrete, or you may need a pro who can transport and place gravel and other inorganic elements. Your total landscaping cost will vary based on the amount of work you want done, how much labor is required, and the cost of the materials you are using. A good rule of thumb for a major landscaping project, according to the American Society of Landscape Architects, is to budget 5 percent to 10 percent of the value of your home.
