Adam Rosenberg
Very easy to schedule, reasonably priced. they redid my entire backyard and made it awesome. 5/5 would recommend. Also very respectful of the times during COVID.
Melia Fonoimoana
I had a wonderful experience with Step-A-Head Landscaping. I called around 10 different landscaping companies and they either weren’t good about answering their calls, didn’t provide all the services that I needed, or were charging outrageous prices…
Cindy Cassity
I would give 10 stars if I could! We needed a space in our yard cleared and leveled for a play set. Richard showed up for the initial estimate (which is rarer than you’d think!) , showed up when he said he would to start work (again, rare!) and finished in ONE DAY instead of the estimated 3!
