What recent reviews say

Most customers experience well-coordinated full-service landscaping from design through planting, with Tom and the crew actively listening to feedback and delivering professional results. Tree removal, interlock patios, retaining walls, and lawn establishment are consistently praised for quality and attention; one household faced premature step deterioration outside warranty after three years, raising durability concerns for those expecting hardscaping to outlast typical guarantees.

Praised for
  • collaborative design process
  • skilled crew and attention to detail
  • professional coordination and communication
  • warranty honoured promptly
  • reliable and timely work
  • high-quality hardscaping and craftsmanship
Watch-outs
  • hardscaping durability issue after three years
  • limited warranty coverage and post-project support
punctualreliableskilled-crewattention-to-detailgreat-resultsresponsiveprofessional-crewquality-materials
Best for: Homeowners seeking full-yard landscape renovation from initial design through plant and hardscape installation.
Think twice if: Those expecting hardscaping to survive beyond three years without additional investment should clarify warranty limits and durability upfront.

Strengths

  • Direct collaboration with designer Tom throughout project phases
  • Named skilled crew (Jacob, Smitty, Leo, Chris, Scott Taylor, Joel, Colin, Mike) with strong hardscaping expertise
  • Warranty replacement for plants that did not survive winter
  • Handles complex multi-phase projects (design, grading, sod, planting, hardscaping, lighting)

Worth knowing

  • Designer Tom personally coordinates from initial site visit through construction and planting phases
  • Named crew members: Jacob, Smitty, Leo, Chris, Colin, Mike, Scott Taylor, Joel
  • Warranty covers plant replacement if trees do not survive first winter; does not extend to hardscaping beyond initial installation period
  • Handles complex projects: front/back yard redesign, retaining walls, interlock patios, sprinkler systems, tree removal (up to 7 trees in single project), landscape lighting, gazebos
