"Initial rep was great and informative. Felt comfortable with initial sale. Hardly had any contact from customer service except for the payments. There were several delays that we were not informed about unless we called to ask. Took 7 months before they showed up to begin project. Only 1 person was sent to build steps. Took a week. Hard worked, hardly took a break. Had to call again to see when they would come to pour patio. Never knew when they were coming, they just showed up. Hardly spoke with the homeowners. Inspection paperwork was just left on porch. Additional paperwork that is "required by the County" had to be completed by homeowner and taken to Court house to be notarized and filed and also provide a copy back to Long Fence. Time sensitive materials which added to homeowners to-do list. Gave this contract to LF on the surface of their history and appearance of a 'good local company' but should have stayed with original contactors in VA. Puddle of water forms when it rains"

Family owned and operated for nearly a century, we understand the value of our own reputation like very few others. Over the years, we've continued a tradition which goes deeper than quality work, advanced technology and superior service. Hawkins today is every bit as focused on customer service, and getting the job done right, as it was back in 1918. As technology advances, so do we. In fact, Hawkins' trains its staff regularly, and has always been quick to adapt to new ways of doing things. We remain as innovative and prepared as the days when the traffic lights we were installing were among Maryland's first. But there's just no replacement for some old-fashioned values. We simply say we're Wired for Service. It's who we are. Additional phone numbers - Baltimore & local areas, (877) 927-0900, Virginia area - (301) 419-3214. Additional contact name - Todd Shatzer. Additional service areas - portions of DC, Charles & Calvert Counties. Award winning.

"Excellent."

Omega Landscape Construction is your local award winning contractor combing stone and natural building materials with the Piedmont areas landscape. We are a family owned business serving Rappahannock, Fauquier, and Loudon County.

"We couldn't have been more fortunate to connect with Mackie to design and construct our patio and replace the trex on our deck. When we first started working together he explained important features in detail for both the short term and the long term, in addition to the budget and aesthetics, and it was really enjoyable to exchange ideas about how the patio would take shape to complement the house and the landscape. When the project took off, we were so impressed with the conscientiousness of his staff and they worked diligently to complete everything on time and in budget. Our lawn was restored perfectly and we were left with results more lovely than we imagined. The work they did inspired us so much, we transformed our whole downstairs just to extend the entire feel of the place to match! Mackie clearly has the talent to deliver the end results, and the character of the company and the people is evident throughout the entire experience. Would work with Omega again every time!"

We are family owned and operated for 3 generations servicing Maryland, DC and Northern Virginia. We strive to fulfill our customers goals, because we realize a happy customer is our best advertisement and look forward to earning your business. Contact Dominic today for a free detailed estimate.

"I met Dominic over twenty years ago. We had purchased a newly constructed home a few years prior. The end of our driveway was sinking and the builder failed to back its work. I contacted Dominic. He reviewed the condition and indicated that he could take care of it for us. I found him to be extremely knowledgeable, an excellent communicator, concise, professional & personable. Consequently, his team was extremely efficient. This work required excavation, new pavement. They did more than I expected, in less time than I expected and less costly than I expected. This winter we damaged the end of our driveway. I called Dominic. He inspected the driveway, provided a detailed scope of work to include repairs we identified and action which he explained would prevent future repair. I anticipated a Spring start date. He said, we’ll wait for a break in the weather, and take care of this for us. Again, they did more than I expected, in less time and less cost than I expected. As the work was completed in less than desirable weather conditions, he said he would check back in the Spring to ensure the quality met his standards. As promised, yesterday they reviewed a few superficial spots at the entrance of the drive but, true to his nature, he instructed his team to reseal the entire driveway. I am sure you will agree, finding this breadth of generational knowledge, quality, efficiency and trust is a very rare find these days. All that said; he’s just a pleasure to do business with! Apologies for rambling-on but, trust me; I could go on… :)"

FAQs for xeriscape installation projects in Reston, VA

Sprinkler systems aren't ideal for xeriscaped gardens because they can't effectively water around rocks and hardscape elements. Water often runs off or evaporates before reaching the soil. Instead, a drip irrigation system is a better choice, as it delivers water directly to plant roots, ensuring efficient water use and promoting healthy growth.

Your xeriscaped garden requires minimal yet essential maintenance. Regularly inspecting and adjusting your drip irrigation system, along with occasionally adding mulch and gravel, keeps your garden operating efficiently. Routine tasks—such as pruning, aerating, fertilizing, and soil testing—promote deep-root development and sustained plant health. This ensures maintenance remains low while your garden preserves its water-saving design. 

While the initial cost of xeriscaping can be similar to or even higher than traditional landscaping, it often saves you money in the long run. Xeriscaping reduces water usage and requires less maintenance, lowering your ongoing costs. In drought-prone areas, these savings can make xeriscaping a more affordable and sustainable option over time.

Xeriscaping has potential disadvantages that include high initial labor and a departure from traditional lush landscapes. It demands extensive planning and careful installation, which increases upfront effort. Additionally, the less conventional appearance may not suit every homeowner’s taste and could impact curb appeal in areas where traditional greenery is valued, though its water-saving benefits remain advantageous.

Yes, xeriscaping can increase your home's value, especially in drought-prone areas. A water-efficient, low-maintenance landscape is attractive to buyers looking to save on water bills and reduce upkeep. While the exact increase in value varies, xeriscaping often enhances curb appeal and marketability to potential homebuyers when you’re selling your home.
