I am very impressed with the sod and mulch renovation and new tree install project provided by Blade & Border. The owner Josh arrived promptly for the initial appointment, was timely and kind in his communications throughout the process, and proposed a fair market rate. I had requested a sod border around my entire home as well as a front garden bed and front dead tree renovation. Josh walked the property with me as we discussed options and then reiterated back to me my expectations. Josh completed all of the work himself within just 2 days while also communicating next steps. Josh is incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic about sod, plants, and overall design options. He is also a good listener and very detailed in labor execution. Our home border and front plant border had not been maintained for 2 years. Josh transformed it within hours! I would highly recommend that anyone looking for a new install or renovation project at any level contact Josh for a consult. You will not be disappointed with the process or the final product! Many of my neighbors continue to comment about the upgrade to the yard and plants. I am including 4 before photos and 4 after photos to see the transformation. The difference is obvious. I will be requesting services again for our next project. Thank you, Josh!!

Expert Rock Installation in Fuquay-Varina, NC
Rock installation gives Fuquay-Varina homeowners a low-maintenance alternative to mulch that holds up through the area's heavy summer rains and humid seasons. At Blade and Border, we handle every step, from grading and ground prep to weed barrier placement and final rock layout. Fuquay-Varina's clay-heavy soil holds water near beds and foundations after moderate rainfall. Rock beds allow surface water to move through and away from those problem zones rather than pooling. We work on planting beds, slopes, dry creek beds, downspout areas, and foundation borders. Each project starts with a look at how water moves across your yard. That tells us which rock type and depth will perform best in your specific spot. The result is a clean, defined yard that stays that way season after season without constant upkeep. Call Blade and Border to schedule your rock installation in Fuquay-Varina.
