The help and recommendations throughout the project was the difference between Nelson’s and other companies. The crew was very prompt and considerate to changes, the professionalism was above and beyond. John, Travis and Pablo were excellent at adapting to change and the knowledge displayed was very impressive. We will be using Nelson Landscaping for our future projects.
Nelson Landscape did a very professional job replacing our retaining wall and fence. And repaired leak in our hot tub. They took the stones off and rebuilt the waterfall.They also did the retaining wall for a neighbor, that’s why we used them.I would highly recommend Nelson’s Landscape
Nelson landscaping installed a 24” storm drain connected to 100’ of 12” pipe and a berm to keep my pool from flooding every time it rains. They did a great job. Travis and Justin and the crew were great to work with. After installing the drain they sodded the area with Bermuda which looks great. I also had them out to troubleshoot an issue with my irrigation system that another company couldn’t figure out. Will definitely use them again.
Had my second Nelson Landscaping stone retaining wall installed this summer. Travis managed my first project in 2021 and expertly coordinated this one, too.Leo and Lucas were the site leads and easy to work with for updates and forthcoming about any changes. What was most impressive about Nelson is Lucas and Leo came back and modified our design and plan after the torrential floods had their say. Nelson didn’t charge me for the changes, which was incredibly generous of them. I paid what I was initially quoted.Highly recommend!
We had Nelson Landscaping put in two new flower beds, and expand several existing beds into one. They built beautiful naturalistic borders using boulders and chopstone, and I am so happy with the results! They made great plant suggestions and also took my input about native species I wanted to include. They redid my sprinkler system so that it makes sense for the new planting areas. The whole crew was so great to work with! All lovely people who clearly take pride in the look and quality of their work. They even installed roll fencing around all the garden beds at my request so that my three dogs won’t trample all my plants. They cleaned up spotlessly before they left so that my yard is ready to enjoy without having to walk around picking up leftover bits. I can’t wait to see it all greened up once spring comes! We will definitely be using their services again for any future landscaping. Highly recommended!Edited to add some summer time photos!
