Testimonials

We wanted to send this letter to first of all thank you, and secondly, to offer a recommendation/reference for your future projects. We were impressed with every aspect of your landscape construction business including:

Flexibility- We provided our own design, probably not the typical design you have seen in any of your other projects. You reminded us when final decisions needed to be made along the way and remained flexible as we fine-tuned the design during the different phases of construction.

Very Responsive- You both promptly returned phone calls and met us at the house when you said you were going to be there. Seems like such a simple thing but we haven't experienced that high level of responsiveness before.

Attention to Detail- The exactness of the construction was very impressive. The dimensions were perfectly aligned (really important for a design that was based on 90 angles). You provided supervision to your crew to ensure that construction was perfectly implemented from start to finish.

Experience- Your experience was obvious in many aspects. You clearly love what you do and you bring a passion to it. You treat your crew well and treat them with respect. You, as owners, are hands-on, physically working hard to ensure a good outcome.

Well Connected- You were able to bring other subcontractors such as an electrician, landscape materials, wall construction and metal fabrication into the job in a way that was seamless to us.

Beyond our expectations was hand watering the garden when irrigation is turned off. We greatly appreciate the great job that you did for us. We LOVE our yard and garden. We wish only the best for you in your future projects.

    We start the construction of our patios/walkways with a properly compacted base which helps to ensure the longevity of whatever material is laid on top of it.

Brick Pavers
Concrete

    Our retaining walls are built to last and just like our patios/walkways, a solid foundation is a key component to a lasting retaining wall.

Brick
Flagstone
Pressure Treated Timbers

    Our Water Features provide an area that offers the soothing sound of running water and generally create a cooler area to relax in. Additionally they can provide for an atmosphere conducive to aquatic plants, other marine life, and also attract neighboring wildlife, such as birds and butterflies.
