"The owner came right out to my property and was able to give me quote right away. We talked about what I was looking for and discussed a few other things that could be done around the yard. I was very impressed with his professionalism and knowledge. He has not started on the lawn work yet because the lawn isn't in need of it quite yet, but I have a good feeling that the lawn will be in great hands."

Murray Landscaping is a full service landscape construction & maintenance company specializing in quality at a fair cost. We utilize experienced crews with many years of training. We accept Vias, Mastercard, & Discover. We also offer payment plans if needed.

"I received a prompt quote and the work started within a week during the busiest time of the year for landscapers. A crew of 5 came out and finished filling in several deep holes in my lawn. The work took about 1.5 days total. Everything looked really good, and they even patched an additional spot I didn't point out during the work estimate... I guess they had leftover soil. That was definitely above and beyond! After the job was done, a sprinkler head had been adjusted too high above grade, and Ken immediately came out to fix. Great service and work overall, would recommend. My only note is that their communication could be better. The crews randomly showed up without giving a day/time to start work. Seeing a group of guys walking around our backyard all of the sudden was startling at first, but they politely confirmed they were there to landscape. Would appreciate a heads up in the future."

FAQs for landscape yard or garden installation projects in Athens, MI

Well-maintained trees can add significant value to your property. Mature trees enhance curb appeal, provide shade, improve energy efficiency, and can increase property values by up to 10%. They also offer privacy, reduce noise pollution, and create a more inviting outdoor space, making your home more attractive to potential buyers.

The fastest-growing tree species include alder, rowan, silver birch, willow, cypress, and poplar. However, it’s best to consult with an arborist to choose trees that will thrive in your area, as they’re affected by climate. Otherwise, their growth may be stunted, and the trees may die. To reach their growth potential, trees need high-quality, nutrient-rich soil, ample space, and the right amount of water.

You should plant trees in the spring for the best chance at root development and recovery. Spring provides ample moisture and moderate temperatures, reducing the risk of transplant shock. While fall planting is possible, spring conditions are more likely to produce healthier trees, leading to thriving growth and a stronger root system.

Tree maturity significantly affects planting outcomes. Young trees take longer to mature but recover from transplanting with minimal root damage. Mature trees provide immediate benefits like shade, fruit, and improved curb appeal but may be more challenging to transplant. Consult a professional arborist to choose the right tree for your landscape goals.

A five-gallon tree is one grown in a five-gallon container, indicating a compact root ball and smaller size. These trees typically grow two to six feet tall, making them a manageable, cost-effective option. They also transplant easily and establish quickly with proper care, making them ideal for homeowners seeking immediate landscape improvement.

Tree costs vary significantly by species and size. Smaller, common species like a Colorado spruce may cost as little as $30, while ornamental and shade trees are often more expensive due to their size and planting complexity. The larger the tree, the higher your labor and transport fees will be, raising overall costs.
