A Garden Guy just completed a large installation project in my backyard that included transplanting existing plants, installing dozens of new shrubs and perennials and installing a rock retaining wall. They were one of three companies recommended by Lurvey. One was out of business and the other was about 50% higher. The project took 4 days and went fairly smoothly. My only concerns were that the transplants didn't get replanted as quickly as I would have liked and there wasn't as much attention to watering each of the newly planted shrubs except for a few minutes of surface watering at day's end. As it's nearing the end of the growing season when plants normally begin to fade, I won't know for sure how successful the project is until next year but if everything survives the winter I'll be very pleased. I'll try to add an update at that time. I hope to be in contact with A Garden Guy next season for updates to my front yard but will have to get an earlier start as they book up fast. read more

I really liked working with A Garden Guy for a recent landscaping project. They reached out to me quickly after inputting an inquiry on their website. I needed a solution for backyard drainage, and they created a beautiful dry creek bed on the perimeter of my property. It looks even better than I could have imagined! Pricing was very reasonable as well. From initial inquiry, planning & execution - they did an awesome job. The crew that did the work was very nice and friendly while they did the project too. I'll definitely work with Garden Guy in the future as I continue to take on more projects. read more

A Garden Guy - a gravel bed in front of a fence - Landscaping Near Me

I hired Matt to do a big landscape project at my daughter's house( front yard corner). 1 day to tear everything out, second day was laying out plants and planting, third day was sodding, wiring for lighting and stone work for a seating area. This exceeded all our expectations. Andrew lead his crew and was so personable and answered any and all questions. I could not have asked for a better landscape service and results. Now they will move into my home and I know it'll turn out just as spectacular! read more

A Garden Guy did a great job installing landscaping plants. Crew was friendly and professional. Would definitely recommend.

We had one crew replace the pavers in our backyard. This two man crew did a great job...working their butts off. They did an excellent job of excavating what was there. This was a quality job. Then another crew regraded a garden in the front of our home, picked up, delivered and spread 4 tons of landscape stones for mulch. Then also picked up and planted 8 bushes. Again, an excellent job well done We will use them again. read more

Used these guys for (1) garden upgrade, (2) patio paver refresh and (3) flagstone resetting. 1 - removed existing plants and a couple old bushes; planted new bushes; mulched 2 - power washed and sealed my paver patio 3 - power washed and completely relaid a flagstone landing that was never done properly to being with The flagstone and paver work was great! 5 stars. Such a relief to have it clean and sealed and not looking horrible this spring. The garden work - 4 stars. Have to see how the new bushes did over the winter but looking good. Wish the mulch had been deeper; will have to redo it this spring. The plant material they removed wasn't all pulled out by the roots; I've gone over it once and will again this spring. Maybe next time I'll DIY with herbicide and remove after it's had time to die off. Would definitely work with them again! read more

A Garden Guy did a beautiful job on our front and backyard landscaping project.

We really love our new stonework from Matt The Garden Guy! The driveway retaining wall and steps look great, and are incredibly sturdy - they will outlast us all. Matt paid a lot of attention to details like installing a drainage system and geo-grid reinforcement to make them so. The front walkway is a work of art - we keep getting compliments from passers-by. One reason we hired Matt is because we could see he had an eye for artistic touches, and also for fitting into the surrounding landscaping. His work crew were also very skilled, and the results show it. Color us very happy! read more

The grass in our backyard was AWFUL. All bumpy and muddy. Plus our rock gardens were disheveled and ugly. Jose and Lalo created beautiful paver boarders for the beds, removed the old grass, levelled and sodded. AND THEY CLEANED UP AFTER THEMSELVES!! What an incredible difference it has made. I'm no longer afraid that I'll twist my ankle back there. The professionalism this company has displayed will earn them many recommendations from me and my husband. World class customer service. We'll be requesting their services for our front yard soon. I'm most grateful that I stumbled on this company via Google search. read more

Called and emailed Matt. Never bothered responding. Found him on my neighborhood site, so I'll be letting my neighbors also know he's not responsive. read more

He suggested two retaining tanks for our backyard flooding problem. The installer said they were putting in two thirty gallon holding tanks that would leach out the water when they filled up, and everything looked good. The first heavy rain we got, the backyard was flooded as if we hadn't had anything done at all. The drains that allow water to flow into the tanks were six inches under water! The installer said "It really works!", well, it doesn't. We paid thousands of dollars just to see out backyard covered with water, still. read more

Matt finished a project last year for us which overall went well but unfortunately a few plants didn't make it and we had a warranty with him to replace anything in the first 12 months. I have tried to contact him multiple times to replace the plants all summer and he has not responded. I also have questions now that the tree that we asked for is actually a bush and feel very uneasy now. I am not sure he is organized enough to handle the business that he currently has to fulfill new requests and handle his contract warranty work. I unfortunately cannot further recommend him. read more

Several emails, terrible with communication. I was told they would come out for an estimate on my patio on Friday or Saturday. Emailed again to confirm day and time with no response. Changed my plans to be available and couldn't get a response. Have moved on to another company. read more
