Chris DePoto visited on schedule and reviewed project ideas with me. When his first proposal did not suit me, he revised and sent a 2nd proposal which was much better in my mind. His father and his brother Mark arrived with their work crew on schedule and completed the job in a half day. The end result was superb and has increased the value of our property by about $10K in my estimation. Both the design and the execution of the work were excellent. Mark and his father consulted with me as the job proceeded to make sure I thought the placements of boulders and shrubs was to my satisfaction. The work was professionally done. All areas were cleaned up before they left. Mr. DePoto, Chris, Mark and their crew were all great to work with. They were the opposite of arrogant. They were friendly and professional, and were kind enough to offer my 3-year old grandson a chance to ride in the front loader and run the leaf blower. He was too shy to do that, but loved watching them the whole time.
Description of Work: Removed old and dying shrubs at front border of lawn. Added loam. Installed 3 boulders, 5 andromeda bushes, and 10 shamrock holly. Added new mulch. Cleaned up and removed all debris.

We did not select this provider due to scheduling constraints: we waited too long into the spring before engaging him for an estimate and had a fixed project completion date that his workload at the time would not accommodate. However, we were very impressed by the proposal presented and the professional approach Mark employed during the design & estimate phase. We would/will use him in the future.
Description of Work: Provided estimate and proposal for landscaping around a pool.

Description of Work: Repaired faulty work performed by our builder on our front patio, installed a paver sidewalk to our front door, graded, loamed and hydro-seeded our entire lot which our builder did not do. Hillside also planted three gardens in our front yard. They did excellent work!

Description of Work: A true family business. Great for hearty perennials and trees. The stock is superior unlike what you will find in the box stores. Your landscaping will be sure to have it's own flair and not like all your neighbors who shop at Home Depot and Lowes. Also some very unique items like sequoia trees which not too many people know you can grow in this area. They have a full service florist so its great to stop by if your need an arrangement in a pinch or to send to someone for a special occasion. Very friendly and helpful.

Marc Depoto was an absolute pleasure to work with. He has real vision and gave us the yard of our dreams. Marc was very careful to be sure that rain water would drain away from the foundation of the house. We no longer have water coming into our garage. Marc thought of everything and made my back yard into a true oasis. It looks natural and peaceful. I love spending time relaxing on my patio. He obviously prepared the site well as the patio drains perfectly after a rain and has not heaved at all over the winter. While doing the regrading a truck nicked one of my shingles on the house. The next day one of his workmen replaced the shingle and repainted the area. It was done so well you couldn't even tell it had happened. I couldn't get over how promptly it was taken care of! After this experience I wouldn't think of using anyone else but Hillside Nurseries work on our yard.
Description of Work: We had Hillside Nurseries work on our yard over the period of a year (we kept adding to the project). We had a new lawn (sod) put in after an extensive home addition. The whole area had to be totally regraded. They put in a beautiful stone patio (large field stones) with fire pit, and planted Japanese Maple trees and various shrubs. They put pea stone under our deck, and mulched the whole area around the patio and foundation of the house. They put cobblestones over our existing concrete basement steps to enhance visual appeal as it was next to the patio.
