best time to do landscaping

What is the last that I can transplant perennials in zone 5?
I propose several plants of a "holding" area while doing some new landscaping in our home. These plants are Coreopsis, yarrow, Dianthus and mothers. The work will be completed soon and I'll be able to move again, but this is the last and safest time to do this? Do I divide the plants at the same time and what is the best way to do it?
Until soil freezes, you're good to transplantation. Or keep them heels in till next spring if you prefer. Divide the larger they have been stressed badly this season.
Does patch perfect really works?
