Richard transformed our back yard beyond anything we could have imagined, designing and providing stone walkways, stone walls, and wonderfully reconfigured beds. They also hauled away a mountain of rotted railroad ties. The price was reasonable and the work was done quickly on our tight schedule for a party that was important to us. It was a great experience.

Richard met with me to discuss a complete redesign for the front yard. We then discussed changes for the back yard. He provided drawings for both plans. He planned for some low-maintenance bushes that will thrive in the sunny front yard and the shady back yard. The landscapers arrived on time and were very professional. The work was done very quickly and Richard came by twice to be sure the work was going smoothly and I was happy. After about six weeks I can say that everything still looks great and is easy to maintain.
Description of Work: Complete redesign of front yard and changes in back yard of a townhouse. Price includes removal of one bush, regrading the yards, planting 12 new bushes, installing heavy filter fabric under gravel covering back yard, paving stones, mulch and all other supplies, and removal of debris.

Description of Work: Installed marble-like bricks as edging around flower beds. Very nice looking. Also did slate rock edging around back flower beds. Looks wonderful. In a previous experience, they replaced decades old scrubs with new ones and new mulch. All done professionally and we received numerous comments on how well our landscaping looks.

Fairly well. Rich came out 3 times as we fine tuned the design. All the work was done in one day and workers cleaned up after the job was done. No damage occurred to existing landscape. Workers' English was limited, which led to poor spacing between 6 boxwoods. I'm still working with the company to correct that problem.
Description of Work: Landscape design and planting of 1 tree and 19 shrubs, installation of stone walkway.
