What makes a yard work, anywhere
Most failed lawns, washed-out beds and heaving patios trace back to the same three things: soil, water and plant choice. Knowing them helps you compare quotes on more than price.
Start underneath
Clay holds water and compacts, sand drains too fast, and many new-construction lots have little topsoil left. A soil test and the right amendments come before plants or sod.
Where it goes
Grading, downspouts and drainage decide whether rain soaks in or pools against the house. Local watering rules and rainfall decide how much irrigation a yard really needs.
Right plant, right place
Grass and plants suited to the local climate zone, sun and soil need less water and care. What thrives in one metro can struggle in the next.

Questions, answered
Is this service free?
Yes. There's no cost to you to request help. Landscaping companies in our network pay for referrals. You only pay the company you hire, and you're never obligated to hire anyone.
Are you a landscaping company?
No. We're an independent referral service. We pass your request to an independent, insured landscaping company serving your area, and they contact you directly.
Which areas do you serve?
We take requests in the metro areas listed on our home page, and we add new metros as we line up companies there. If you're outside them, send a request anyway; if a partner serves your ZIP code we'll pass it along, and if not we'll tell you.
How fast will someone contact me?
Most companies reach out within a business day or two, and sooner when you mark a drainage or erosion problem as urgent. Spring and fall are the busiest seasons in most places, so scheduling the work itself can take longer then.
Do landscapers need a license?
It depends on the state. Some states license landscape contractors or require a contractor license above a dollar amount, most require a license to apply pesticides or fertilizer for hire, and irrigation work often needs a licensed installer or backflow tester. Each metro page covers the local rules. Either way, ask for a certificate of insurance.
