I reached out to Ben from Yard Yogi and he was able to meet with us mid-spring to discuss the start of our project in May. Ben had many visions for our back and front yard and while we were hesitant with a few concepts, we trusted his expertise and overall we ended up being impressed! There were some communication issues in the beginning, but ended up resolving with due diligence by calling Yard Yogi for solutions/clarifications. There had also been a few last-minute changes that came up, such as the stones we picked were backordered and we also had to readjust a few design aspects along the way. But the crew at Yard Yogi were very responsive and acted quickly. The overall project took a few days past the proposed timeline, but the overall outcome was worth the wait.

This seamless visual is achieved by curving the patio into the driveway and tying it altogether with the pavers. Beautiful stonework, smartly placed steps and we have now easy access and two beautiful patios. So pleased we redid the front walk and stoop also.

Formal Warning Regarding John (Mac) Bellingrath (Bellingrath Bros. Landscape & Design, Newington,…read moreCT): In August 2024, we entered into a contract with John (Mac) Bellingrath for a backyard renovation, paying approximately 95% of the total cost upfront--an error in judgment we fully acknowledge. The contract established clear completion deadlines for early September 2024, with allowances for minor delays. In the several months that followed through April 2025, Mr. Bellingrath repeatedly failed to meet numerous promised completion dates, including a final, "guaranteed" deadline of January 7, 2025. Despite our sustained good-faith efforts to allow him to meet his contractual obligations, he engaged in an ongoing pattern of project abandonment, unprofessional communication, substandard workmanship, and repeated false assurances. Ultimately, due to Mr. Bellingrath's continuous non-performance, escalating safety concerns, and deteriorating conduct, we were left with no choice but to formally terminate our relationship with him on April 1, 2025. The situation escalated to such an extent that police assistance was required to escort him on and off our property to retrieve his remaining equipment. Mr. Bellingrath's complete lack of professionalism, accountability, and competence turned our project into a nightmare. He repeatedly abandoned work, delivered subpar craftsmanship, and caused extensive damage--showing zero regard for our property or safety. A few examples include: * Repeated Abandoned Work & Safety Hazard: He dug an 80-foot trench for electrical conduits across our backyard and disappeared for weeks. In numerous occasions, Mr. Bellingrath left our backyard a dangerous construction site littered with heavy stones, machinery, and debris--forcing us to keep our children away. * Poor Work & Property Damage: Mr. Bellingrath sent an unqualified worker to handle critical tasks like building our patio, installing steps, and adding a rodent exclusion barrier. The result? A sloppy, unacceptable mess that required constant oversight. To make matters worse, this worker damaged our house siding. * Negligence & Destruction: Mr. Bellingrath's team repeatedly drove heavy machinery/vehicles over our front lawn--an area not even part of the job--destroying our front yard we worked hard to maintain. * Known to Authorities: Mr. Bellingrath's history of issues isn't unique to us. The West Hartford Police Department and town officials are well aware of the complaints against him. There is much more to say about this, but we'll stop here. Beyond our personal experience, we have been contacted by other clients reporting similar grievances, including significant upfront payments for unfinished work and long delays exceeding several months. It is evident that Mr. Bellingrath's conduct constitutes a serious breach of contract, a disregard for professional standards, and raises broader concerns for consumer protection. Mr. Bellingrath continued operation poses a significant risk to other unsuspecting clients and we urge anyone considering hiring him to exercise extreme caution and due diligence.

In the interim, we worked on design with Ron showing me pictures and bringing samples of the materials to confirm everything in advance of the installation.

End result was exactly what I wanted, what we had jointly designed, and installed with great care for endurance and care about water/flooding. Not cheap - but done very very well....so I feel the quality makes the price a good value. Thanks to the whole crew for excellent job, confirming along the way to make sure no redo was necessary.
