Wonderfully. We used Frank/Scenic View back around 2006 on our first house and they did a wonderful job. After we moved, we used another local landscaper and were completely disappointed. This year we found out Scenic View does jobs in our area and not only did they fix everything from last year, they also helped redesign a good part of our backyard. Frank and his team are completely reliable and willing to work with their customers. We highly recommend them!!

We had them come in and rip up our back and front yards including the front walkway. They put in a new walkway in the front and a patio in the back, cleaned up and removed some of the bushes we no longer wanted and a ton more. We also had them put a foundation for a new shed in as well. Long story short, they did amazing. Very friendly and flexible and the quality was amazing.

The crew arrived promptly, and did an amazing job. The clean up was perfect. My neighbors have already approached me to ask how much they charged for their work! The crew was very careful around our landscaping...particularly our perennial plantings. We had a three person crew, and they were all good natured and courteous. Five stars!!!!

I would give Scenic View A+++ if that was an option. They were responsive right off the bat and Pat came for an estimate quickly, working with my schedule. I received a professional, detailed estimate within the time frame he gave me and the price was very fair. They were honest in when they would be available to do the work, which is greatly appreciated considering the number of contractors that tell stories. I was lucky another job had canceled so Scenic came out much earlier than expected. The job was completed in the time frame they gave and the workers were accommodating and professional. BEST OF ALL...THEY DID FANTASTIC WORK!! Scenic View Landscaping is an A+ operation. Do not look any further for your landscaping needs!!!
Description of Work: Pieces of broken retaining wall and stairs removed. Relocating patio blocks and a few cords of wood on the property. Grading a hill with a Bobcat. Connected outdoor PVC to gutter downspouts and pitched away from the house for best drainage solution. Used patio blocks and gravel stones to create a walkway on the side and in the back of the house. Assembled a new retaining wall and stairs. Filled in some small areas that had broken concrete. Added top soil and grass seed.

I highly recommend Frank for landscaping / lighting. I feel very happy when I drive up to my home. I can’t thank him and his team enough for making my home look so beautiful. Frank was very friendly and easy to work with – he came up with a great design and then he accommodated all my ideas and understood exactly what I wanted. He gave very good advice. His landscaping / lighting / plants were exactly as he had proposed. His team was professional – they came on time, were courteous and cleaned up very well daily. Once the installation was completed - he followed up with us to make sure we were satisfied with the job. I will definitely be using this company again for my backyard.

Frank's first visit was to take pictures and then create a proposal. His promises were delivered! Frank was prompt, the design he created was installed with the exact plants/bushes as per his proposal. His team was excellent, they were not only friendly and courteous but cleaned-up like I have never experienced before. If you want a professional "team" and the job done to perfection then call Frank and Scenic Landscaping. Happy in E.B.

Chris was very responsive in the whole process. Price is relatively high. But for this particular job we want to hire a reliable contractor to do the work. The job was completed flawlessly and was completed on the day after we signed the contract!

This is a revised review. The initial visit was awesome. They did a wonderful job. Then I get a form in the mail asking if I wanted seasonal service. I opted for 3 out of the 4 services. The form stated the work would be done between April - June. Nothing happened in April. I contacted them on May 10th and was told they would be here later in the month. Never showed. Contacted them again on June 16th. Was told that they were definitely going to be here either this week or next and that they were delayed because of the weather. It is now August and they never showed or contacted me. I am very disappointed in this company. Thankfully I didn't pay any money up front. They should of at least contacted me regarding the reason they never showed.

WOW!!! Frank, his office staff and his team are the most professional landscaping companies I have ever dealt with... not to worry your call will be answered!!! You will get an appointment and Frank or a member of his team WILL show up!! An absolute pleasure to deal with. His team of workers are profession & pleasant, even in the hottest of temps. Frank sure does know his plants and what will/will not work in your area. He is very talented & creative with his designs, thank God since I was clueless! I now LOVE driving up to my house seeing my new landscape design with their lights (which definitely are worth every penny) and just being able to take it all in. Thank you Frank & The team at Scenic View Landscaping for all their hard work in ensuring our landscaping was exactly how we pictured... it’s more!!! You guys truly are the best!

Difficult job because the work is done during good weather then you have to wait for a rain storm to judge if the flooding issue was fixed. Unfortunately, we had very heavy rains right after the job was completed which eroded all of the work and the flooding returned. The company was extremely responsive and came back to redo the entire job. They were also very responsive to my worried emails which included videos of my backyard turning into a lake. Biggest concern for me is finding vendors that will stand by their work so I was very pleased with Scenic View.

Although at first there was a disconnect insofar as communication between Pat & myself; however, upon discussing my concerns about the project with Scenic View, Pat was more than attentive to the needs of my family & myself. He was knowledgeable on the different types of mulch, the leveling process, and maintenance. Moreover, he even had personal knowledge to guide my decision-making due to the fact that he had to have similar work done for his own family. The team that actually performed the work, (the Gustavo Team) were accommodating, cordial, and worked very fast. Overall, we are quite pleased with the work and happy to have secured Scenic View for their services. Thanks!

All work was done to our complete satisfaction and in accord with our initial agreement. If any modifications were needed along the way, they were done cheerfully. The landscape lights illuminating the house, trees and shrubs add drama and beauty to our home. Frank recommended planting three Thuga Green Giant Arborvitaes to replace our mature Blue Spruce evergreen that succumbed to the wind. Their growth habit will quickly fill the void as well as block out any car headlights because the road curves. As for the edging and mulching, it's amazing how neat and manicured everything now looks. Lastly, Frank is a fine gentlemen. I watched as he remedied a landscape lighting concern of a nearby neighbor. His demeanor and professionalism were perfect.

I am so happy with my landscaping - it’s beautiful and far beyond my expectations! Right from the beginning, Frank and his team made me feel confident I made the right decision. After talking with him he sent me a computer design that incorporated my ideas with his knowledge and experience. It was spot on and I loved it! When Frank and his team showed (on time :)) He brought extra shrubs to offer me more choices. We walked around the property and he could see I needed a little more sprucing up. He threw in a few more shrubs, added rock and his team even cleaned up areas that were not part of the agreement. I couldn’t be more happy with my landscaping and Scenic View, Thank you, Frank!
