"Artistic Landscapes Inc. was one of many companies we talked to and received quotes from about installing a boulder retaining wall in our backyard to replace aging railroad ties and decking. The backyard is sloped with very limited access to move materials and equipment, therefore many of the companies we spoke with responded with either limited options for landscape ideas or unaffordable prices. Chris came out, listened to our ideas, gave us some of his and told us exactly what we could expect; he quickly put a bid together and we were elated it fell within our budget. 



He and his crew not only worked around the limited access issues, but challenging weather including rain and wet conditions/clay soils. In addition to an approximate 60 foot long boulder retaining wall, they installed 33 paver stones for a pathway, steps as a feature area, additional large boulders for aesthetic enhancements and graded the area to address critical storm water runoff needs. The placement of each stone/boulder was clearly thought through, resulting in a unique and attractive wall versus many of the standard "one on top of the other" looks.



Toward the end there were a few minor tweaks we requested to which Chris and his crew were more than happy to accommodate until they knew we were completely satisfied. Clean up was fabulous too; our front yard damaged by major equipment during the process (which we knew was necessary) was fully restored as promised!



Chris was good to communicate with and very trustworthy in terms of what he committed to delivering. I would recommend Artistic Landscapes to anyone seeking quality work at a fair price, and by someone who knows what works and what doesn't. We absolutely love our new backyard...thanks Chris and Artistic Landscapes!

"Jessica and her team completed our project in 1.5 days which is what she initially said it would be. They worked extremely hard morning until late afternoon. Clean up was terrific! You couldn’t even tell someone had worked on our driveway. We enjoyed the bees and butterflies visiting our new plants/shrubs all summer! Many thanks to Jessica and her team at Better Yards and Gardens!"

"Cherry Hill was fantastic. They landscaped the front of our house, added a couple of plants around our deck and planted some hedges and two trees in our back yard. The were extremely courteous, professional and friendly. After the project was complete they followed up by text and by phone to make sure we were satisfied with the work. I hightly recommend them for any landscaping work that you require and will be contacting them again in the future for additional landscaping that we want done. 5 Stars!"

"Excellent work and easy work with on project!"

"Josh , Andrew , and Adam did a superb job with my landscaping project in my front yard . Everyone involved did an excellent job of updating and communicating with me throughout the whole project . I recommend Clark Companies and will be contacting them for future landscaping needs ."

"This company is very poor at communicating when they will do the work. The day they said they would be there they didn't communicate to us that it would be late afternoon start. My wife works nights and if we had known they were going to come so late in the afternoon she would not have waited up for them. Plus the work kept getting set back by weather which was not their fault. The sod was half excellent and half dried out. I asked that some of it be fixed and when I handed one of the guys the check for the work he said he would pass it along. No communication since."

"Good people, quick to respond."

"Brandon and his brother did a wonderful job putting in my landscaping. Everything I asked for they did and went above what I was expecting. Brandon is great with communicating and following up and they worked hard until the job was completed. I would not of done anything differently. I would highly recommend them. Denise"

"My husband and I cannot say enough good things about Aspen Landscape. From start to finish Gary and his team turned our dreams into a reality. everyone was extremely knowledgeable, highly skilled and made recommendations that we didn’t even know where possible. We had an idea of what we wanted our yard to turn out like and the finished product far exceeded all of our expectations. They completely elevated the look of our entire backyard and we look forward to many years to come of looking out at their masterpiece. Gary was extremely responsive. Whenever we had questions, he answered the phone. They truly live out their motto of details matter."

"It was timely and I did not have to follow up on anything. He finished the landscape and it was such a low cost maintenance work."
