What recent reviews say

Peter and his crew earn strong loyalty for hands-on service: the owner personally selects trees, shows up to plant them, and backs work with a full year warranty. Large specimen trees and custom stonework are the draw; delivery and installation are reliable. Pricing on premium specimens can be steep for budget shoppers.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Praised for
  • owner involvement and attention
  • large tree selection unavailable elsewhere
  • on-time arrival and clean site
  • one-year planting warranty
  • friendly and knowledgeable staff
Watch-outs
  • pricing on large specimen trees perceived as high
reliableskilled-crewattention-to-detailpunctualprofessional-crewgreat-resultsresponsive
Best for: Homeowners and condo owners seeking large mature trees, custom patios, or complete landscape builds with direct owner oversight.
Think twice if: Buyers sensitive to pricing on premium trees or specialty stone should compare quotes; one customer paid $3,386.61 for three large Cypress trees with delivery and planting.

  • owner personally selects and plants trees
  • one-year warranty on tree planting
  • access to large specimen trees not stocked by competitors

Every review across a year speaks to the same experience: Laura answers calls and texts the same day, her crew shows up when promised and finishes fast, and the sod they install is visibly fresh. One reviewer mentioned a miscalculation on sod rolls; the crew waited without fuss. Grading, garden removal, patio stone work, and weeping tile burial appear regularly in praise. The word "fair" or "reasonable" on price appears in at least seven reviews. Most striking is that no review mentions a redo, delay, or complaint, and many note the site was left cleaner than it started. What makes them different: Laura personally quotes jobs same-day and checks on the crew while working. Clients describe the young crew as "hard working" and "friendly" but also precise (one mentions "attention to our requests" specifically). Sod quality-fresh cut, named varieties like Kentucky bluegrass-is mentioned multiple times. Aftercare tips, a same-day redo offer, and removal of debris down to soil preparation all appear as standard, not upgrades.
