Best Yard Before and Afters 2009

Who: Mary Jane S.
Where: Old Saybrook, Connecticut

After we had all the tree stumps ground, we had fill and topsoil brought in to level out the yard. Finally, we planted seed and landscaped around the back of the house. Watering and tending to the new lawn was a new full time job. I was overjoyed when it rained so that I could have the day off!! Now, the whole family enjoys the gardens and green lush lawn!

Who did the work: I did some of the work myself
Cost: $1,000 to $5,000
