Steve did a great job and went above and beyond. I hired him to trim our shrubs, refresh our mulch, and replace a few plants. He gave me great advice on what would work best and even recommended moving/reusing a few plants instead of replacing them to save money. ​More impressive was when I came home: he had done all of the above and repositioned the entire rock border that extends halfway around my house. He told me not to worry about paying him for the border if I didn't want to; he just did it because it wouldn't have looked right otherwise. I paid him extra, but was really impressed by the pride he took in doing the job right—not always easy to find these days. ​Steve has the knowledge, integrity, and pride in his work that make all the difference.

We had a major drainage problem and A-1 did an amazing job correcting it. It was a little pricey but it was worth it. I would definitely use A1 landscaping again

We hired this landscaping company to redo our backyard by leveling it out, laying down sod, building a mulch bed, and planting some new bushes and trees. They completed the job in a timely manner, communicated throughout the entire process, and did it all for a fair price. We’re highly satisfied with the result!

The owner was very responsive and communicated well with us throughout. They were extremely fast to come out and provide a very reasonable quote for all the work we wanted done. They completed the work as we agreed and in a timely fashion. I’ve already recommended them to my neighbors who have had the same great experience.

I highly recommend A-1 Lawn & Landscaping Service Inc.! Steve and his son Andrew did an amazing job transforming our front yard. We started with a lawn that was patchy, uneven, and definitely needed some love, and the difference is incredible. They installed new sod, refreshed and expanded our landscaping, added beautiful plants and a tree, and completely improved the curb appeal of our home. Steve and Andrew were professional, hardworking, and really took pride in making sure everything came together beautifully. I included before-and-after pictures because the transformation truly speaks for itself! Our yard looks completely different, and we couldn’t be happier with the finished result. Thank you, Steve and Andrew, for all of your hard work and for giving our home the curb appeal it needed! 🏡🌳💚 Definitely 5 stars I would absolutely recommend A-1 Lawn & Landscaping Service Inc. to anyone looking to transform their yard!

This is the second time we have used A-1Lawn and Landscape. Steve and his crew have once again delivered an excellent result. The hedges and shrubs in front of our home were in desperate need of replacing. Not being very knowledgeable about plants, we totally went with Steve's suggestions. Our new landscape is amazing! We would hire his company again without hesitation and highly recommend him. This is the third year in a row we have used A-1 Lawn and Landscaping in our continuing yard beautification project and once again we could not be more pleased. As with last year, we went with Steve's suggestions and the result was excellent. Many of our neighbors have commented on how beautiful everything looks. Definitely a top notch company. We have once again called on A-1 land cape and lawn service and again they have done excellent work. This year we had remulching of our yard, front and back, and a large tree taken out. They also trimmed back our shrubs in the front, weeded, cleaned out all the leaves and trimmed back our liriope in the back yard and did some replanting of some shrubs that were displaced during the tree removal and even cleaned up a pile of leaves that had accumulated around our pool pump. All debris was cleaned up and taken away. Our yard looks fantastic! Because we were going to be out of town for a couple weeks, Steve even made sure to have the transplanted shrubs watered while we were gone. We just can't say enough good things about this company. June 2026 We once again called on A-1 Lawn and Landscaping to do more work for us. Steve and his people are the best. This year we had all the liriope along our backyard fence removed and replaced with stone; took out old plants from the far end of the pool and replaced with new flowering plants; dived and replanted some existing Hostas. They even took down an old wooden gazebo that was looking very sad. In the front and side, they cut back some overgrown shrubs and planted some new flowering plants. New mulch was laid down over the front and back. When they were done everything was cleaned up and left picture perfect. This is a top notch company!

I loved that they showed up on time. Explained all aspects of the work that was being performed. The work was done right. Very satisfied. This is a follow up from the previous post. Very happy with the work and pleasant to work with and costs. Big thumbs up.
