AJ did an outstanding job on our new lawn installation. I would highly recommend AJ and his team for any landcaping needs. I look forward to working with him again in the near future!
We love our new bed in front of our house. Our neighbors were using our front yard as their driveway. I explained the situation to AJ and he created a dramatic landscape to eliminate the issue. It looks fantastic! Thank you for doing a timely quality job!
AJ is great - I appreciated his knowledge and flexibility with a project that changed scope and shape several times. He was able to keep up and make adjustments on the fly to get my yard done before a deadline. His stonework was level and clean. Thanks AJ!
The Owner AJ was very nice!!! I had some landscaping that I’ve been wanting to take care of (three bushes) and put in oriental grass instead!He just finished another project and headed over to our hose right after, I’m sure he was tired but kept being personal and got our job done.I would highly recommend him! Affordable, knowledgeable, and goes above and beyond.Can’t wait to see what other projects I’d like to get done!
"BUCK CREEK BEAUTY"I'm still in awe every time I look out my window! And when I step onto my patio..I'm transported into this magical place,surrounded by beauty and tranquility. I walk down the hand chiseled pathway to the uniquely colorful stones used to create a wall that is reinforcing our embankment. The path takes me past an assortment of lush green bushes,with splashes of vibrant and colorful flowers and plants..entwined among eye catching boulders and stones. I must mention my stunning Green Lace Japanese Maple that A.J found for us..which is the focal point of my Amazing dry creek bed! We have an assortment of really pretty and functional plants to help stop the erosion on our creek embankment, and some produce berry's that our many birds will enjoy for years to come. We had A.J build a new retaining wall for us, that will also last for years to come. lol..I have a really nice Dogwood tree and a couple of very striking boulders in that section. A.J pruned our old Apple tree and I swear it brought the old girl back to life!! He also went above and beyond to accommodate any requests we asked of him. And for the finishing touch he laid down black mulch, which makes our backyard "pop " !! I could not have a bad day sitting out here if I tried! I cannot say enough about the phenomenal job A.J has done!! He kept in constant touch with us every step of the way, which we really appreciated. He listened to our thoughts and ideas, and like the true Artist he is..made them come to life! So,as I sit here listening to the relaxing sounds of nature..watching my beautiful flowers and plants swaying as a gentle breeze blows across the creek..I say..Thank You A.J, for creating our very own Heaven on Earth!! P.S: And thanks for fixing my granddaughters gumball machine!?? Wishing you all the best!!
