Their pricing was significantly more…read moreaffordable than other companies we considered, and they delivered exceptional service from start to finish. They arrived on time, were incredibly patient with all of my questions and last-minute additions to the project, and the finished product looks amazing. We struggled to grow grass in our backyard because of our two high-energy dogs and the heavy shade from a large tree. Rick helped us design a layout that would work for our space and needs, then installed artificial turf along with plants along the fence line. The transformation has been incredible, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Highly recommend!

The work involved resodding a backyard that had gone wild with violets and other invasive plants. They dug out some overgrown horseradish plants that had spread considerably, they trimmed and edged the flower beds, and everything is neat and clean. Out front, they resodded and put in new timber borders. This was real work, and they did it well. Their bid came in slightly higher than one other, but I got the sense from talking with the owner that I had nothing to worry about, and that was true. I would not hesitate to call on them again for help. Not at all.

I normally don't write reviews unless a company does an exceptionally poor job. My belief is…read moresimple, when you pay someone a good amount of your hard earned money, the job should be done right. There are exceptions, though, and Lisa is definitely one of them. Obviously, Lisa and her team did a fantastic job with the landscaping. She presented me with three different design options, worked with me to stay within my budget, and then executed the project exactly as she explained she would. She even moved my project up on the schedule after I mentioned I was planning to sell my house soon, which I really appreciated. What really stood out, though, wasn't just the quality of the work, it was the communication. It was clear, transparent, and consistent before, during, and even after the project. That level of professionalism is surprisingly rare in the home improvement industry. I own a house that was built in 1887, and over the past eight years I've hired countless companies for projects including a new deck, porch, fencing, painting, paver installation, and just about everything else you can think of. One of the most frustrating parts of working with companies in this industry is the lack of organization and communication. They're usually quick to collect the deposit, but after that you're left constantly following up for project start dates, updates, and progress. Working with Lisa was the complete opposite. She was organized, proactive, and always kept me informed. It was honestly refreshing. If you want to roll the dice and deal with the same frustrations I experienced with two other landscaping companies before finding Lisa, go for it. But if you'd rather save yourself the time, stress, and uncertainty, do yourself a favor and call Lisa. I couldn't recommend her more.

After confirming we wanted to move forward with Dante's team, they started the work within one week. The team was extremely efficient and had the work done in 2 days. They were polite, professional, and knowledgeable of the process to help manage our expectations. They went above and beyond what we had asked to ensure the new grass would not be overrun by surrounding weeded areas. They did an exceptional job cleaning up the area once the work was done. Dante came back to our place outside of normal business hours to help with our maintenance and care plan. We could not have had a better experience and are very grateful for Dante's work on this.

BEWARE!! I removed a previous 1-star review for this company…read moreafter numerous requests via phone calls and texts from the owner (Carmelo) imploring me to remove the review, as it would negatively impact his business. Camelo stated that "family matters" prevented him from following through and providing the quote and services that were promised during our first phone conversations. As Carmelo appeared sincere in his apology and promise to deliver services as promised, I removed the initial 1-star review because it is not our goal to hurt a business when it is not warranted. After speaking further with Carmelo, my husband and I agreed to the terms of the scope of services after Carmelo changed the contract to reflect 50% payment at the time of service and balance due after completion of the work. It should be noted that in the inital contract Camelo was asking for an unheard of 90% deposit before scheduling a date to start service and the balance due upon completion! We agreed that Carmelo would come out to our home on today's date (06 Apr 24) at 10:00 AM to survey the work area, sign contract and receive deposit. It is now 12:00 PM and we have not heard from Carmelo. I rearranged my own work schedule to accommodate this appointment and Camelo did not respect my time and once again failed to follow through on the agreed date and time of our appointment. This company appears to be a scam of some sort, particularly given the unreasonable deposit that they are requesting before work is even scheduled (90%) and the blatant failure to follow-up with any appointments that Carmelo and his company makes with potential clients. I will not remove this review under any circumstances or requests made by Carmelo because it speaks the truth and I WARN any potential clients to expect nothing but fake promises. You will likely regret the time that you wasted considering Camelo's sales pitch. First time shame of you, second time, shame on me...
