Crafting Extraordinary Outdoor Living Spaces

Really well - i have used several small landscapers (and even other contractors) over the years, and Josh was by far the best overall experience. I got his name from a friend who used him for a larger project last year. I think the price was fair but not cheap, hence my B rating there, but honestly I was not really able to get an equivalent bid from anyone else. So i could be wrong there. Overall the experience from sales through design and execution was great. Josh is knowledgeable and easy-to-work-with, not typical pushy sales. He worked with us on a great design from my rudimentary sketch, and it turns out to be EXACTLY what we wanted. We engaged him in the fall, and they were not able to get the project done before winter (although he had never promised to.) But he said we'd be first on the list in the spring. He contacted us in March to finalize plans and get a deposit, then got the work done ASAP in mid-April. They came when they said they would, with a crew of 3 and got the project done in 3 days. I can't speak to long term quality, but am extremely pleased so far, and hopeful it holds up. Since this is a front patio, we get many compliments from neighbors on the sidewalk, and have shared Josh's name several times. Would recommend him highly! Thanks again, Josh!

From start to finish the whole process was fantastic and we could not believe how quickly they were able to accomplish this much work.Description of Work: Complete landscaping front and back. Pave sidewalk and patio installed in the back along with plants, flowers and drainage for gutters. Cobblestone walkway installed along side of house along with plants and drainage. Along other side of house stones installed to help with drainage to prevent water from coming in to the basement. In front yard tree removed and deteriorated sidewalk and steps removed. Installed paver steps and walkway to include larger platform by front door. Installed boulders on slope of yard to help prevent erosion and placed beautiful plants. Can't even count how many compliments we have received.

Josh drew up 3 different plans for our landscaping. We also had some other estimates from different landscapers. Before we hired Sculptured Earth, I informed Josh that I was actually learning a lot about various plants myself and was enjoying it and asked if he would mind any changes with some of my favorite selections. He was very open to that so we decided to hire him because his pricing seemed fair and he seemed easy to work with if I wanted to change anything. We were notified before they started our project and also during the project as to what we should expect. Any questions I had were promptly answered. We were very happy with the work that was done and have had many compliments on the design. We had a few plants that died over the winter and I informed Josh. He responded quickly, and was very good about replacing them. I would definately hire Sculptured Earth again and would highly recommend them!

Our concrete walkway had cracked badly over the winter, our rock beds looked terrible and our old railroad ties used for edging were rotting and out of place from snowplowing. Josh got a couple of options to me very quickly and after I chose one was able to start work within a few days. He brought out several examples of pavers to look out and pick from . His crew got the work done in two days, and Josh saw to the details, coming out several times to inspect and make improvements. The crew was polite and neat - cleaned up very well afterward. Josh did not collect final payment until he came out an did a walk through with me. He has pride of workmanship and made some changes to improve the final look that we had not even noticed.  Description of Work: Josh on short notice drafted and executed a landscape plan for the front of our house. It included removing a concrete walkway and replacing it with a paver walkway, removing old wooden ties and removing with paver edging and re-rocking the beds. He included a great landacape plan for plantings, which we have not done yet..
