I have used Landscaping by Craig 3 times over the years. Craig has done outstanding work each time. He laid out the plan, we discussed and agreed on the fee. Work was done professionally. This last visit, he actually did more than we had agreed on. I am very pleased with the work. read more

We've been with Craigs landscaping also known as Picture Perfect Landscaping or Ppl for many years and never had a major problem although we had more than a few minor ones, unfortunately when I did have a major problem it took us three months to get Craig to address it supposedly he had an accident or didn't get the message or whatever. And after all of that he did not address it to our satisfaction. In the years we were his customers his employees work was less than satisfactory. They simply were careless.They mowed over many plants we had recently planted such as tulips, pansies and snow crocuses because I guess his people can't tell a tulip from a weed. After this long 3 month wait for a quote we are glad to have severed our relationship with this landscaper and warn those who hire him to keep an eye out. The outcome might not be pretty. read more

Last week, several of Landscaping by Craig employees came to work on my front yard. It was overgrown and hit hard by the storms in March. Within 5 hours, I watched my front transform from an overgrown mess to a thing of beauty. I can't thank Craig enough for the work is employees did. They will be returning to do the same thing for my backyard and I can't wait for that to happen. I was so impressed by the professional way the job was done. I heartily recommend Landscaping by Craig. Toby Kaplan read more

While the initial landscape design and installation was done well (for a lot of money), there was zero follow up. I had to keep calling Craig to check in on the health of our plants, as many appeared to be deer-eaten or dying, but he had no interest in coming back unless he was getting paid. When he finally came by after multiple requests, he offered to service our property as part of a maintenance plan that was $1200 higher than the next landscaper I requested a quote from. I told him I was passing on his maintenance plan, but wanted him to adjust a major tree that he planted that was blown out of position. Any adjustment to the initial planting was part of our contract. Since I wasn't going with his "maintenance" plan, he has ignored all of my requests to come back and adjust the tree. I have reached out to him multiple times over multiple weeks explaining to him that he is in breach of our contract, to no avail. To give you a sense of his work, he even considered unwrapping the ropes around the root balls of our trees a part of "maintenance" even though the health of one of our trees seemed to be negatively affected by the wrap not being removed. Do yourself a favor and find yourself a landscaper who is interested in doing a complete, respectable job, and not one who is only interested in your money. read more

Craig creatively transformed a backyard that was dramatically changed by the removal of diseased trees and stumps into a piece of art that provided both beauty and privacy. In order to formulate his landscaping design he spent a considerable amount of time evaluating the yard from all different angles. His strategic installation of a 6' fence and a variety of 14 shade and ornamental trees was well beyond our expectations. Along with the transformation Craig significantly improved the drainage and created a yard anyone would be proud. His expertise and design skills leads us to recommend him highly. read more

Many years ago Craig did some work for us. In and out. We felt it was all about the cash. In the end, it turns out we were right. He planted 3 Leland Cypruses next to our driveway. I found out how big they get. They would have grown to cover half my driveway. We had to have them moved at the cost of $600, and they died anyway. Not to mention the $1000 or so they cost to begin with. Now today we are having our septic system re-done. A blue spruce he planted, which is now over 25 feet tall, has to be removed because he planted it too close to the septic field. It had to be at least 10 feet away, and this was right on the edge of the field. He is a landscape architect, and should know better. Tree removal and disposal, along with moving the rocks is going to cost me an additional $800-$1000. Plus the loss of the tree. read more

We have been customers of Landscaping by Craig for nearly 18 years and could not be more pleased with his work. We would never consider using anyone else for our property - whether to do enhancements or yearly maintenance to keep it looking its best. There honestly is no better landscaper; there just isn't. You will not find a more hardworking, honest, and customer driven professional than Craig. I have recommended him to many people who have used him and everyone who has is totally thrilled with the results. Craig goes above and beyond to transform your property into a thing of beauty. His expertise is second to none. He takes his business very seriously and his crew are extremely courteous and neat. What we admire most is not just his knowledge and professionalism, but that he is a nice man who can be trusted. And that is very rare in this day and age. First impressions are always the ones we remember. Everyone who comes to our home comments on the amazing landscaping and asks who handled it. Our home was transformed into a thing of beauty because of Craig. We cannot thank him enough for all of the hard work he does for us year after year. You will not be disappointed to hire Landscaping by Craig. -JBK read more

Craig an artist of outdoor landscaping. I selected him for my first project because of his designs were natural. I had him remove old decking and install a beautiful patio and pergola surrounded by natural rock gardens and softscaped landscaping. The planting areas were enhanced by strategically placed lighting. My patio and given me such joy over the past two years and friends and family just cannot believe the transformation. My back yard is so serene and my happy place. They all say that I don't have to go on vacation...just walk out my door. I had Craig return a few more times to transform the back of my yard and this year to light up the front of my yard and house. You will not find a better person than Craig to work with, he has the "vision." His team of professionals arrive on time, efficient and fast. I can't wait to get home at night. I am greeted by beautiful softly lit house, the pine trees are glowing and I can actually now see up my driveway. Even in the winter the first thing I do is open the blinds in the slider, stare outside and wish for spring to get back out there. Middletown ,NJ read more

We recently added an extension to our home and when the construction was done realized that something was missing. Although we had made our home more functional, the space and grounds surrounding our home looked tired and uninviting. So we called Craig to help us. My wife said, "I want something beautiful to look at with a special seating area at the foot of our yard". Those were the only instructions. Craig transformed our property into something very special for us; adding beautiful landscape, accent lighting and a unique seating area that we intend to use for a quiet space and fire pit entertaining. We have used Craig and his design services three times in the past 25 years and he has never failed to impress. Craig has created something that we will enjoy every day for many years to come. read more

Craig took our outdoor landscaping ideas and turned them into an amazing complete oasis. Everything from landscape lighting, patio, natural stone walk way, flowers, sitting wall, and outdoor fireplace! His dedicated crew worked on our house for 10 days and totally transformed our fenced in pool area and shed area. We truly feel so lucky that we were able to work with such a reliable contractor and talented landscape architect! read more
