I looked at the other landscaping posts, but i didnt see where any of them recommend someone.

My flower beds....need major help and with school, they've gotten away from me and my abilities to manage them. I really just need someone to come out and weed them (which would be a major feat), put down a weed-guard, and then mulch. If the price was reasonable, I would even like to have them built up with bricks and made a little fancy, but that's not 100% necessary.

Anyone recommend a good company?

Young dude who grew up working for his dad's landscaping company. I was worried bc he looked like he was 16 years old (He is like 24)... but he knew about 10x more than other landscapers I had talked to that were 40.

Did a great job on my paver patio and drainage.

Skip the weed barrier, doesn't work/isn't needed if mulching, more just for stone mulching areas. As for the above Anthony guy I know nothing of him but that fire pit on his front page looks terrible, as does the stone work beside it. BUT he probably is pretty good in the maintenance end of things, which it sounds like we're needing in this thread. Also the full sun plants being planted as understory stuff has me scratching my head.

Also isn't licensed to do irrigation, I believe. Can't find him anyways in the list.
