You can maintain your home’s landscape by regularly pruning, planting, fertilizing, aerating, and soil testing. Remember to water your grass and flowers regularly, reseal fences, maintain retaining walls routinely, and winterize your yard and garden before temperatures drop.
To plan your project, bring in a professional landscaper who can walk you through options at every budget level. Calculate your budget before committing to any work. Landscaping can get expensive, so it’s always good to know your limits and what’s practical within your budget.
Every landscaping project has a different timeline. Planting a few flowers can take as little as one hour while building a new patio can take several weeks.
