No job is too big or too small we do it all! Professional landscape and hardscape company who specializes in outdoor services that includes mowing, weeding, yard clean ups, mulching, pavers/concrete, painting, retaining walls, sod, turf, fencing, fertilizers, and professional planting. We also are very qualified in tree removal/stump grinding, brick and stone work, deck installation and repairs, interior work, and junk removal. We will beat any competitors pricing and prove to you our work is on the highest standard. We service all of Eastern PA and all of NJ!

"Our experience with Parkyn Landscaping has been nothing short of exceptional. From our first meeting with Tyler, who provided us with a detailed estimate and walked us through every step of the process, to the final transformation of our front and back yard, we have been thoroughly impressed. Initially, our front yard and driveway were plagued with weeds, worn-out mulch, and overgrown bushes desperately in need of trimming. The backyard presented an even larger challenge, with an overgrown garden neglected for over four years and two large fig trees requiring attention. The team at Parkyn Landscaping tackled these issues with expertise and professionalism. They started by removing the smaller, unhealthy fig tree and clearing out all debris. They then filled in the lawn with fresh soil, adjusted the grading for better drainage, and meticulously planted new grass seeds, ensuring to cover them with straw and providing us with detailed watering instructions for optimal growth. Along the side of our house, they planted small boxwood shrubs that promise to enhance our yard's aesthetic once they mature. On the scheduled day, Parkyn Landscaping's crew arrived promptly at 7:30 am, ready to work. Despite the scorching 90-degree heat, they worked tirelessly throughout the day, demonstrating efficiency and a no-nonsense approach. By 4:30 pm, they had completely transformed our yard beyond recognition – so much so that we couldn't resist taking pictures to share with our relatives. We cannot recommend Parkyn Landscaping highly enough to anyone in need of landscaping services. Their commitment to quality, attention to detail, and dedication to customer satisfaction are second to none. Thank you, Parkyn Landscaping, for turning our yard into a beautiful outdoor space we can now truly enjoy!"

"DO NOT HIRE THESE GUYS, whatever you do! you will regret it as we have $3,000 later and the leak is still there after his professional opinion to change our underground line. in addition his finish on concrete is horrible. upon his advice, paying him 125 bucks, to replace the line we felt why not replace both lines. well after the work was done, come to find out we still have the same leak. will he come and resolve this issue. No. why? because he insists on being paid in advance! what gets us is he never ruled out the skimmer potentially being where in fact the leak is coming from. we feel duked and ripped off since the lines we replaced likely were never the issue at all but instead it was the skimmer all along! how can he have missed assessing this important issue? how do we know this? the pool isn't leaking as we've 100% ruled that out by turning off the pump and there isn't water loss. open the lines and loss of water happens. so, why would he tell us the leak was in the line instead of assessing the skimmer as a possible issue which often is the case. does he lack judgment in properly assessing our issue? we have an in ground pool and the patio is gorgeous, with curves all around the pool in an S swirl shape. his repair after cutting out the concrete pad was very sloppy to say the least and looked like someone who has no clue about expense concrete repair. he didn't use a proper form when pouring the concrete resulting in a bellied outward shape when in fact it should be curved inward. he didn't use iron pins, additionally Jimmy didn't use a trawel to shape it, he also brushed it when it was still wet resulting in material being removed so it has a dip and it having a very jagged rough area and not safe for walking on, he didn't use a wire brush to remove the excess concrete over spilling on the patio. w**. again his catch phrase is "don't expect it to be perfect, you expect it to be perfect". this how he has the nerve to continually talk to my wife using abstract words to justify his sub par work. as if we don't know anything about quality work when all my life ive done construction. but telling him where he went obviously wrong, is not at all welcomed. I could go on how he left mounds of dirt instead of properly tamping down the soil so to leave it leveled, like how it was at the very least. these are things when spending 3 grand you do. he'll do just the minimal and he's very cheap when it comes time to using and going out to get the proper tools and materials needed for each unique job. this is how he saves money, and this is how you get crappy work done. they rush their job in order to make their next 3-4 grand on someone else and without any site of coming back to actually fix it the right way. oh, he'll fix it HIS way, but never the correct way. he doesn't inform you how he'll do the work and when you ask its always vague and not welcomed. he isn't one who pays attention to detail. yes this is jimmy were talking about. so he'll tell you, you don't know anything about the things you do know. we still have the same leak and the patio where he did the fixing looks out of place and like crap. you want your pool to still have a leak hire these guys. they'll replace things you don't need. you want him to take your money upfront before the work is done, hire these guys. you want your concrete patio repair to look like crap and be insulted continually with his catch phrase, hire these guys. it doesn't feel good at all being ripped off 3 grand for horrible advice, work that didn't fix anything and very unprofessional sloppy work."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

Opinions on popcorn ceilings vary. They were once famous for their acoustic properties and ability to hide imperfections. Now, they can appear visually unappealing and difficult to clean. Additionally, popcorn ceilings may contain asbestos if installed before the 1990s, posing health risks if disturbed. However, some homeowners appreciate their retro charm or find them cost-effective for noise reduction. Ultimately, whether popcorn ceilings are "bad" depends on personal preference, safety concerns, and the overall aesthetic goals of the homeowner.

Textured walls can increase the value of your home if the style is modern and seen as a desirable feature and not something a prospective buyer would need to remedy. A good example of this is popcorn texture versus Venetian plaster. The plaster wall would add value to your home, whereas the popcorn texture may be something a new buyer would want to remove.

Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can’t soften the texture with water. Instead, you’ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.

Although texturing walls may not seem like a lengthy project, you’ll need to set aside between one and five days to complete it properly. The exact amount will depend on the scope of your project—one room will take less than a whole-house project. That will give you enough time for tasks that are time-consuming in and of themselves, like taping wall edges, priming the walls and letting them dry fully, and actually applying the texture and top or base paint coats. 

Professionals handle heavy lifting, proper disposal, and recycling, reducing environmental impact.
