I am so pleased with Greenlawn Landscaping! After years of being blown off by other companies, I searched again and thankfully found them. They are kind and professional, and prompt and honest, and do quality work. They restored my outdoor space and my faith that there are still great service providers out there. Grateful and happy!

Dee and her crew did a great job of creating a garden oasis for us! They had to remove really bad dirt and weeds to start and then created berms, plantings, paver paths and even a dry creek bed! They called us back and responded to emails in a very timely manner. They were very professional and easy to work with. They were flexible and helpful when we wanted changes. They provided care instructions and a guarantee for their work. Reasonably priced and definitely comparable to others. We would definitely recommend them!

I had a heck of a time getting rid of some extra soil during busy season when our job was too small to get any landscape company to come out. Thankfully, Greenlawn flexed their minimum policy and was willing to work us into their schedule when nobody else would. We'll definitely use them for our next project.

I hired Greenlawn to upgrade the landscaping in the front of my home in 2018 and we couldn't be happier with the finished product! Dee Busch provided a creative design as we didn't know what we were looking for. Also the installation when very smooth. I would recommend their services and we plan to use them for our backyard upgrade this Summer.

This has been a really unfortunate experience. Last fall, I contracted with Greenlawn to build a patio, plant new grass, and install ground cover around a tree in a new enclosure they also built. They were able to do almost all of the work in the Fall, and we couldn't have been happier with the results. They noted they'd need to come out in the spring to install the ground cover, as it wouldn't survive being planted in the cold.
As spring sprung, Greenlawn did not contact me. I reached out on April 2 and began a ridiculous game of back and forth until they "completed" the work on May 25. At one point, I was told they were "extremely busy" right now. Considering I paid for this work last Fall, this isn't exactly my problem. The completed work was terrible and it was suggested that "[my] expectation of filling in the entire bed was not realistic." It was not my expectation!
The whole project was designed by Greenlawn! I've had to finish the work myself so that the beautiful yard isn't ruined by a terrible finish to this project. Doug seems like a great design consultant and clearly knows his stuff. We couldn't be happier with the brick work and our new lawn, but the absurdly bad service and work to complete the project has left an incredibly bad impression. I wish I could recommend working with this company, but I definitely cannot.

When choosing a landscaping company I got several proposals but Greenlawn's was the most thoughtful. It used native plants that offered a changing color palate, varied textures, and provided pollinators and birds a welcome space. They installed a beautiful garden in our front yard 2 years ago, replacing the dull weed/grass mix that it had been, and the next year we had them install sod in the backyard. They do great work and we will continue to use them for future services.

This is my 3rd season with Greenlawn and I am very satisfied with my crew and the service as a whole. They are reliable, courteous, and do the work as specified. Also if you have any questions, one of the owners, (Maria or Dee) is usually available of they will get back to you promptly. I trust Greenlawn to handle my landscaping needs and have not been disappointed.

The Greenlawn team has been doing my lawn all summer. Always reliable, and the trim work looks very neat and tidy. They removed a tree from my backyard, and I was impressed with the condition of my yard when they left - you could not tell a tree had been there. They do such a nice job of cleaning up. When I asked them to remove a hedge from the front of the house, I was again impressed with the professional job they did. Even my neighbors commented that they couldn't believe how neat it looked after the shrubs were removed. I highly recommend Greenlawn Landscaping!
