We hired Tough Oaks last summer to replace the old wooden stairs leading to our back yard door with…read morestone patio and steps leading into our garden. Ralph and Cynthia were a delight to work with. They listened to our ideas, brought their own vision, and worked with us every step of the way to make the final result even better than we had envisioned it. It was a tough job because they had to bring all the materials into our backyard by wheelbarrow, as we didn't want to destroy our garden. They were amazing, absolutely tireless. Our grandchildren watched with fascination and were always delighted when Ralph and Cynthia stopped to talk to them. Their final design was artistic and well-engineered, and has added immeasurably our backyard. We can't wait to enjoy it next year. We would totally recommend Tough Oaks for your landscaping and stone project. We felt that we got excellent value for our money, and they are lovely, honest people.

The final results of the entrance, walkways and plantings were aesthetically pleasing, giving the home instant curb appeal. It appears that no matter how large or small the work, Ralph is ready to access a problem and offer suggestions. In my case, Ralph took the time to to repair a section of my flagstone retaining wall with the same care and precision given to larger projects. In addition, his wife Cynthia was often seen working by Ralph's side. The young family make a good team!

First time was to create a flower bed. They did a great job! Second time was to aerate my lawn. They brought an aerator to my property that was too big!!! to get into my back yard - had to lift it up 2 wooden step areas to access yard. Therefore the operator of the aerator has to call for someone to come and help him lift it up the steps. Unfortunately they tore wooden pieces out of my steps. When I raised the issue as a concern and sent pictures they refused to acknowledge and said the damage was there before they came. If you hire them make sure to take before and after pics
