    Yard
    Jesse M.

    After the crows destroyed our yard, we put our project out to bid. Kevin was competitive, punctual, very nice to work with, and his crew did a great job. He even accommodated a few last-minute adjustments at a very fair price. They were in and out in 3 days--I would have guessed it to be a 5-day job. The attention to detail his team showed was impressive, leaving our yard looking better than we could have imagined. Kevin's communication throughout the process was top-notch, keeping us informed every step of the way. We're thrilled with the results and would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for quality work done efficiently!

    Updating to add pictures as I continue to enjoy my garden and fence! My positive feedback still applies 3 month later - I would definitely rehire Kevin for new fencing, path construction and/or cleanup.

    i would highly recommend Kevin for his service. Kevin and his team are efficient and nice. I asked for a backyard clean and side yard renovation, and they did a good job. The pressure wash didn't completely clean all dirt the first time and they offer a free follow up. I'm very happy about it

    Kevin and his AKT Landscaping team are phenomenal! We contacted several landscapers by phone for a quote to clear out our front sidewalk and our entire rough, steep, sloping yard, which included trimming back blackberry bushes, and cutting down grass, brush, and weeds along the entire perimeter of our property. Kevin was the only one who returned our call after leaving a voicemail message on their business line. He scheduled an appointment the next business day (Thursday) for an onsite walk-thru and was super flexible in accommodating my work schedule. He provided a quote on the spot and told us this team could start work on Monday. His team of four (including Kevin) came out promptly at 8:30am and finished work at 2:30pm. They were extremely hardworking, meticulous and thorough in all aspects of the project, and completed the project above and beyond our expectations. At conclusion, we paid Kevin with a check for his awesome service! We would highly recommend Kevin and AKT Landscaping!

    Kevin responded to my initial inquiry within the hour and came over to assess and give me a quote that day!!! He did the work 2 working days later. The retaining wall was meticulously done and a flower garden installed just as requested. Kevin and crew were nice and very easy to work with. Will use him on a bigger project. Highest praise. He stuck to his quote despite me requesting a few more "af

    Incredible work by Kevin and his team. They were fast, on time, and reliable. Very impressive

    Incredible work by Kevin and his team. They were fast, great value, went above and beyond our expectations. So impressive

    We had a very pleasant experience working with Kevin and his team at AKT Landscaping for a two-day yard and garden project that required a ton of weeding, trimming back overgrown trees and bushes, removing dead vegetation, mulching and planting new greenery. When we met Kevin for the initial consultation, we were greeted with a warm smile as he listened closely to our requests and gave his professional input to help us ground and round out our vision. We felt confident Kevin walked away with a solid understanding of our project. In our meetings with other landscaping service providers, we could tell most of the finer details were lost on them. Not on Kevin. He took the time to recap everything we talked about and gave us a quote on the spot. We told him we'd get back to him after doing some comparison shopping. His price was aligned with other quotes we received. But his level of care and attention to detail is unparalleled, which is what made us want to hire him. An added bonus was that he could start working on our project the very next week, whereas others said it would take at least three weeks before they got to us. What sets Kevin apart from other highly-rated landscaping service providers was his honest way of doing business. We had a different landscaper try to sell us something that wasn't right for the time of year and another who tried to tack on extra costs based on random variables like how long it takes to get from one side of our yard to the other. Kevin is the real deal, and he's not just looking to make a quick buck and get out. He's right there with the rest of his crew diligently tackling the heftier and riskier jobs with dexterity. One time, we looked out the window as Kevin mounted one of our giant evergreen trees and climbed to the top to trim it away from some telephone wires that were overhead. He's both fearless and has a great deal of finesse. He picked out the most beautiful array of hydrangeas for our planter box, and my wife was thrilled by his choices, which showed he has an eye for design. When it was all said and done, Kevin and his team executed on our project without missing a beat, and we can attest to the quality work they do. We highly recommend them!!

    Kevin and his team prepped and re-seeded our lawn after we tried on our own. The difference is amazing.

    Kevin also did an excellent job in pruning all my plants in the front and back yard, especially the beautiful maple tree.

    Our project was a somewhat complicated one - our backyard has a decent slope and we needed terraces…read morethat would be structurally sound given that our soil is extremely sandy. We needed a patio level, a small garden level, a turf/grass level, and then one last small garden level due to the slope. To maximize space, we wanted the majority of these walls to be near vertical block walls. The work is practically flawless. My father-in-law has a background in construction and even he was awe-inspired by the finished product. I cannot fathom anyone impugning the quality of Tim's work. To top it off, our neighbor's rockery was going to be disturbed by our work, and Tim (with permission from the neighbor) was actually able to help keep some soil erosion from their property at bay as a bonus and make their corner look much nicer. I will say that there was one issue we ran into - due to the odd way in which our side sewer was laid (it's an old house and replacing the entire side sewer would've been prohibitively expensive), we were forced to make non-trivial changes to our initial plan that resulted in some wasted work that Tim had to undo. This caused the project to go over budget and over time. Ultimately, we were able to work out a change order that both of us could agree was fair. The fact that he went long on time didn't particularly bother me - he's essentially a one man crew (with some help from laborers) and does not cut corners. While that may seem odd, the fact of the matter is that he is extraordinarily experienced and I've hired contractors in the past with larger crews that got the work done quickly but with important flaws. If I had to choose between a contractor who finishes exactly on schedule or one who takes longer but is meticulously detailed, it's no competition I want the second one (which is what Tim is).

    Great experience working with Tim at Eagle Rock Landscaping…read more He is friendly, professional, communicative and very experienced! Tim walked us through the various options for having a retaining wall given we wanted to preserve a large (30'+ tall tree). He explained all the possibilities with pros & cons as well as conveyed the city's building codes too. He also shared his recommendation for stone selection too. The quote Tim sent us was very reasonable. Tim arranged for the city mark the utility lines and came out a week later to do the work. He finished the job in a day just like he said and the wall was AMAZING. It was more impressive than what we originally thought; he added larger flat rocks to create a "bench" and natural rock path to make it easy to access the slope. Great for sitting and planting flowers and ground cover. Definitely recommend Eagle Rock and would use them again for future projects!

    Six and a half years after Hoffman construction built my garage and a deck over it i'm told by…read moreanother contractor it will have to be rebuilt due to improper, poorly executed construction (despite professional architectural plans) resulting in rot, structural issues, and more. On top of the structural issues, indoor pre painted trim was used on exterior weather facing surfaces. Thad said "i can build anything" maybe so, but what looked great in year one has to be redone 6 years later. don't trust his warm demeanor or the assistant who vapes constantly on the project side. Our current contractor said "these guys did very little right, the concrete work is okay, but the driveway drainage and sump pump installation are a mess" , on top of the poor carpentry. Thad used tar paper where TPO was called for in the design and initial construction estimate, not telling us he did so, cutting his costs and landing us with this hole!

I REALLY appreciate his transparency, honesty, communication & reliability thus far. I don't feel like Thad is trying to sell me anything or convince me right way to do any kind of repairs.
