We now know that they design hardscapes too, but I didn't find them until we started thinking about adding plants to the front of our house. We had just put in new front steps, a walkway, and retaining wall planters, so the space was pretty bare and lacking any life. I knew it would be a daunting task to research enough plants to cover the 300+ square feet of space, and not only find plants that would meet our needs (partial shade, deer resistant, low maintenance, etc.), but also figure out how to appropriately and attractively arrange them. The husband and I are (sometimes) do-it-yourselfers, and really liked the idea of the two hour consultation John offers. I did a fair amount of research and didn't find any other comparable service locally. The price was right, and we knew it would give us the flexibility to decide afterward if we wanted to have the work done or tackle the project ourselves. We were pretty impressed with all that the consultation included. John sat with us to go through his extensive database of plants, which includes not only the botanical information, but also pictures of the plants as they change through the seasons. The design was completely customized to meet all our needs and preferences, and we were included in choosing each plant variety and gave input on placement. John was extremely knowledgeable and professional, answered every question we had, and wrapped up the consultation appointment by taking measurements before marking the area with flags to indicate plant locations. We were also provided a comprehensive list of all the plants we'd chosen, again including the botanical info and photos, and emailed tips for planting if we wanted to do it ourselves. We asked for a quote to potentially have John do the work for us. There was a brief moment of sticker shock, but we quickly realized that the prices were market value, and it was well worth the cost to spare ourselves the tasks of sourcing, transporting, and of course planting everything. Not to mention the HOURS of research his consultation had already saved us. Side note: I also really appreciated the transparency of the quote. It listed the individual cost of each plant/ tree/ shrub and all materials, so it was clear where our money was going and how the price might be affected if we made changes to the plan. So, we sent the deposit and John was back to do the work about a week later. The project was wonderfully executed, and we really couldn't be happier. He again answered all our questions and gave us helpful advice for maintenance. He even came back the next day to put down grass seed, as it was unavoidable for him to walk through our previously seeded post-construction dirt while he was working. So, we are big fans. We might even invite Land Design, Inc. back next year when we tackle the backyard...

"Without exaggeration, Redbud helped us create our favorite place on the entire planet! They helped…read moreus transform a relatively underutilized space into a backyard oasis. The quality of their work was only matched by the consistency of their professionalism. From the outset, our vision was going to be tough to accomplish because of the space restrictions, our indecision, and our commitment to the highest standards. From design to completion, though, Geff and his team helped us embrace the project as one that we'd get done "tight and right." Their responsiveness, experience, creativity, flexibility, resourcefulness, work ethic, execution and follow through truly define who they are as a company and is reflected in the high quality of the final product. Geff, Gary, the Redbud team, and their subcontractors were an absolute pleasure to work with and I highly recommend them. All phases of our project - design, planning, customer service, install, financial management, quality assurance - were all top notch from start to finish. We're grateful to them for helping us make a far-fetched dream become a reality and an investment that our family will enjoy for many, many years to come." - David Garza, Catskill NY

The whole yard is so inviting and relaxing. They had finished all the new sod and mulch and everything looked perfect when a storm came through and a tree fell right in the middle of the yard 2 days before the big party I had planned. Geff took care of everything and had the tree removed and cleaned up in plenty of time. I really appreciated Redbud's attention to detail, I have enough going on with my job and kids and it was nice that I didn't have to worry about anything on this project. I will be using Redbud again next year for a stone patio at my lake house.

We needed to contain a hill that was eroding. Instead of a retaining wall, he had the idea to use very large boulders that matched the boulders around our pond. The end result looks like it was installed when the pond was installed. He and his crew worked nonstop until it was finished. They took care not to damage the yard with their heavy equipment and took the time to consult with me a few times during their work. I highly recommend them for hardscaping. Honest, dependable, punctual, and respectful of the property.
