Eco Concepts is a locally owned landscape construction company that prides itself on honesty, integrity, and quality craftsmanship since Fall of 2010. Our business has been fortunate enough to retain the same crew of friendly, hardworking, and trustworthy individuals, all of which have been with our team for over a decade. We offer a variety of hardscape and landscape construction services that are customizable to each individual property. Eco Concepts has a stable of tractors and dump trucks, so even though we are a smaller company in comparison to some of the other local outfits, with the help of our heavy equipment, knowledge, and skill sets, we are very capable capable of tackling larger projects. We pride ourselves on the quality of our work as well as our commitment to outstanding results. This approach has allowed us to build many long lasting relationships spanning over a decade. We look forward to building new and lasting relationships for many years to come!

"In addition to laying out stone work for our front and back yards, Jed and his crew also did a lot of landscaping--removing lots of shrubs and other existing plants and putting in all new plants and trees. We had him rework stone work in the front yard and put in a stone patio and walk ways as well as a drip irrigation system in the back yard. It all came out so beautifully. We provided the overall design, Jed make several very good suggestions that we incorporated. We did most of the plant selection and he worked on getting the best prices for the majority of the plants. His crew were all very hard working, polite, professional, neat and respectful of our property. They worked fast and efficiently with a high level of quality to their work. The end result is FANTASTIC. We love how the yards look now and once all the plants are fully grown, it's going to be really lush--with a good number of the plants being drought resistant. I will say that Jed/Eco Concepts is in high demand. He was able to work our relatively small project in between much larger projects, which was fine by us as we really wanted him to do the job based on the reviews we read of his work. We were willing to wait til he had an opening and it was well worth the wait. Jed is a really nice guy, very easy to work with, has good contacts and resources for materials. I highly recommend Eco Concepts for landscaping and stone work."

"P.M. Landscaping is outstanding! We highly recommend them for installation without reservation! We hired P.M. Landscaping to re-grade our backyard drainage, then install an extensive area of pavers, and finally add drip irrigation for our new landscaping. We ended up installing boulder retaining-walls to secure the steep hills in our back yard which slope toward our house. The whole project took about 4.5 weeks of full-time, multi-laborer work. P.M. Landscaping was attentive to detail and asked for input where there were choices to be made. At the end of each day they cleaned up and put their tools aside in one area. We waited several months for them to be able to do our job. The wait was longer than usual due to the COVID19 pandemic slowing paver manufacturing. We are very glad we could wait to get the best!"
