We hired Garrick-Santo Landscape Company to build and install a new raised garden bed in our back yard. Their Account Manager Joe visited in mid-May to meet with us, reviewed our requirements, discussed potential layout options and took measurements to work up an estimate. We were provided a quote with reasonable pricing within a few weeks. Despite the busy Spring landscaping season, the Garrick-Santo team kept us updated on their schedule and work began within two weeks of receiving the quote. The job was completed within three days despite a severe heat wave. The build crew and landscapers were above and beyond professional in carrying out the project, with great attention to detail, including replanting some bushes that needed to be relocated. The final result looks fantastic! We now have a wonderful vegetable garden for the first summer season at our new home. Highly recommended! A++++

We hired Garrick-Santo Landscape Company to install a new front retaining wall and build a concrete ramp for under porch storage. Older wall construction, new deck installation and hard winters caused the old timbers to degrade over time and breach towards the sidewalk. Miryam visited observing Covid-19 precautions, and spoke to my wife to work up an estimate. We were provided a quote within a reasonable period. Due to supply chain issues in obtaining pressure treated timber, the project was delayed to the end of September. The Garrick-Santo team kept us updated on schedule forecast. The work only took a few days to tear down and excavate the existing retaining wall, pour the concrete form, build the new timber retaining wall and then perform the landscaping. All of the construction crew and landscapers were professionals in carrying out the project. The result looks fantastic! Highly recommended!! A++++

My experience with Garrick-Santo was great. They worked with me on several options with regards to the overhaul of my front yard, even so much as to provide various plant options that would thrive in the area as well as various cost options. They were very punctual and professional, and they did a very nice job.

Anita came out and walked me through every step of the process. Her estimate was very well written and detailed. When the crew came out they knew just what to do and kept the area very neat throughout the time they worked. The project took three days and came out fabulous. I would highly recommend them and will use them in the future. Our pool deck is next...

Overall experience was good. They showed up when they said they would. Gave a written quote of schedule and price. They performed the job on time and within the period quoted. I'm still using them in the upkeep of the lawn. They could use some upgrade in their billing department though. Bills show up 2 months late will payment due in two weeks.

We use this company for landscape maintenance services as well as periodic projects related to our grounds. The crews are very courteous and the office gal is a pleasure to speak with. We have been long time clients and are very happy with them!

Garrick Santo put new mulch on existing beds around my house, trees, and landscaping features on my property. They got to it quickly from the time I contacted them to when they did the work and it looked good when finished. They missed an area along a fence that was a part of the work but came back the day after I contacted them to finish. Very pleased with their quick repsonse. I feel they could have put the mulch on thicker because only 2+ months later it doesn't look as good with some weeds/grass coming thru and bare spots in certain areas. Also, I have used Garrick Santo in the past and they did a good job then as well.

They are very friendly. They get back to you very quickly. The service they provide is good. They are little on the expensive side but the job that they performed is very good. Based on the fact that we have used them just one time we thought it is good service but we felt that they are expensive. We will use them in the future.

It was well done, but it took awhile for them to get it done. We have a very small yard, and the price they quoted to take care of it for the summer we thought was way too high.

They do a great job and I like this company. From the woman who answers the phone to the folks who come out to work on the property everyone is friendly and courteous and always willing to help me. I understand they are somewhat pricey but don't expect a broken down pickup with a motley crew to show up . The trucks are newer and clean and the crews are uniformed. They even took in my trash barrels one day when they were working at my property. My neighbors always comment on how good my yard looks. And some of them also now use their services. Rob is very responsive. I do feel that I am getting what I'm paying for. I really only have good things to say about them.
