Should I use landscape fabric under gravel?

Generally, it’s best practice to install landscape fabric under gravel to control drainage and prevent weeds from growing in the gravel.

Does The Grounds Guys offer a plant warranty for their installations?

Additionally, anything planted by The Grounds Guys carries a plant warranty. Since this varies from location to location based on regional differences, you’ll be provided with plant warranty information when you receive your proposal from the installation professional.

Do landscape stairs need handrails?

It depends on local building codes and how many stairs there are. If The Grounds Guys happen to be installing your stairs as part of hardscaping services, we’ll be sure everything we install is up to code.

What is the difference between annual and perennial garden bed care?

Annual flowers need to be planted every year. The first frost signifies the end of each annual garden season. Luckily, our team can help refresh your annual garden each spring or early summer. Unlike annual gardens, perennial gardens consist of plants that grow back year after year. Perennial plants tend to have fewer blooms than annual plants because their energy is spent growing stronger roots. Our landscape installation team keeps this in mind so you can achieve the garden of your dreams.

Amazing work! My yard side yard went from a looking like a jungle to the garden it is supposed to look like. Justin and Angel made sure everything looked okay with me before going on to the next task. Very detail oriented.

The crew arrived ready to transform my space, and wow is it beautiful! The guys worked efficiently and carefully, planting the bushes and plants. I would highly recommend David and the crew.

The Grounds Guys do a phenomenal job. They did a major cleanup of my yard, installed new sod, laid stone, shells, and mulch, planted new Areca palms and flowers, rerouted some sprinklers, and created a flagstone path to the backyard, and all of it was down with meticulous care, attention to detail, and skill. The Guys are friendly, professional, and just a delight to deal with. They offered good suggestions for improving the yard and have communicated clearly throughout the process. I can’t recommend them enough.
