Pruning, mulching and edging is a good choice for anyone who wants to freshen up a landscape that is getting overgrown and tired. Small patios, paths or retaining walls may also fall onto our enhancements or small projects team, along with basic drainage or lawn renovations. Many times these types of projects are easily estimated and designed which allows the turn-around to be considerably shorter depending on the season.
