What recent reviews say

Ground & Garden delivers polished hardscape, landscape design, and lawn care backed by staff who answer calls quickly and manage large projects smoothly. Reviewers praise named team members (Eric, Kate, Mark, Noel) for listening closely and catching details through execution; one customer noted high maintenance quotes ($644/month for 2,000 sqft) bundled services they didn't need, and another had yellowing plants and no weed barriers in a $70k job, though the design itself impressed.

Praised for
  • responsive and communicative staff
  • high-quality design and execution
  • efficient project management
  • knowledgeable and detail-oriented crew
  • reliable long-term service
Watch-outs
  • high maintenance pricing
  • weed barriers not included in hardscape work
  • plant material selection issues
responsive-quotesskilled-crewattention-to-detailpunctualreliable-scheduleoverpricedknowledgeable-staff
Best for: homeowners needing phased hardscape or landscape design with close oversight
Think twice if: maintenance contracts bundle lawn mowing, which some may not need; large jobs require careful plant selection and weed-barrier discussion upfront

Strengths

  • named project managers (Eric, Kate, Mark, Noel) known for responsiveness
  • handles complex phased projects from design through execution
  • long-standing client relationships (some 20+ years)
  • rapid turnaround on urgent jobs

Worth knowing

  • Owner Brent involved in projects; long-standing relationships with commercial clients (JB Goodwin Realtors)
  • Project managers named include Eric Kocian, Kate Higdon, Alex Hansen, Mark, Noel, and Bo
  • Crew members Edwin and others work in heat extremes
  • Recently rebranded from Perfect Lawns
  • Tackle erosion and drainage in addition to aesthetics
  • Responsive to emergency calls (sprinkler repair next day, storm cleanup)
