We recently contracted Beechwood Landscape Architecture & Construction to install a French Drain and a slate sidewalk on the side of the house, re-do our patio and driveway pavers, and do major landscape work on our recently purchased home. The job took six days to complete and we are very satisfied with the design of the work that was completed and the professionalism of the personnel who worked on all of the projects. Beechwood Landscape Architecture & Construction management kept in touch with us during every phase of the project and were flexible with changes that we requested. We are very happy that we picked Beechwood Landscape Architecture & Construction to do our landscaping and home improvement work.

Our backyard had a lot of limitations and restrictions related to where and how we could locate and design our pool. When Steve and Beechwood proposed their design plan I was a bit skeptical but in seeing the finished product now I am very happy we chose to go with their vision. The placement and layout of the pool and associated landscape has maximized both the aesthetics and space available in our backyard - the visual almost makes our backyard look even bigger than before and the overall feel has been completely transformed for the better. Beechwood's work has been professional, on time, of high quality and communication was great throughout the process. As happy as we have been with Beechwood we were equally as unhappy about the performance and communication of our pool builder. On this front, having Beechwood on our side was a great help. On several occasions they spotted problems/unsatisfactory work from the pool builder that we wouldn't have had the technical background to spot. They did their best to bridge some of the communication gaps that were happening which helped the process move along in a more orderly and timely process. Beechwood even helped fix some of the pool builder errors even though it was not a requirement for them to do so. We are very satisfied with the work of Steve and his team and we plan on using them again. Beechwood might not be the cheapest option out there but you really do get what you pay for and more.

I used to look wistfully at magazine photos of beautifully landscaped gardens and fully finished paver driveways and just wish that my yard looked like that -- and now my home could be one of those photos! Beechwood Landscape Architecture’s professional landscapers listened carefully to all of my ideas for my garden, patio and driveway, and then translated them into a breathtaking landscape design. Any changes I asked for were immediately acted upon, and any question I had was answered by their knowledgeable staff by the next business day. They provided me with plant photos and paver samples, so that I had plenty of alternatives from which to choose. All of their staff, from the landscape designer to the gardeners themselves, were courteous and respectful, and went out of their way to make sure that I was completely happy with my stunning new garden. My yard is now my favorite “room” in my home. Beechwood Landscape Architecture has truly made my landscaping dreams come true, and I couldn't be happier!

Eliot at Beechwood was my contact. He and the workers were prompt, polite, hard working and knowledgeable throughout the entire 8 day project. Not an inexpensive project, but we definitely got what we paid for! It's exactly what we wanted!

Their prices are slightly higher but it is well worth it. They have many state awards for landscape designers. They have professionally educated designers and it definitely makes a difference. The landscape designer was Eliot and he was the best.

Very well. Beechwood is the most professional, reliable, responsive, quality company we have ever used. Their price is high, but the quality and customer experience matches the cost. We have used many various contractors for home renovation projects and Beechwood has provided the best start to finish experience. We love the finished project and would highly recommend them if it fits within your budget.

They were fantastic. They did a fantastic job. They were just so professional. I just dealt with a lot of companies that will come and give you a quote, but they do not get back to you or they get back to you after a long time. They were prompt. There was like a whole team of people working in the office as well as team of contractors that came. They were just so efficient and they did what they said they were going to do. It does not seem like should be a really remarkable thing, but somehow, it seems to me. So, they were really very reliable and professional. The other really great thing the guy who is the owner, Steve Chepurny is his name, made some really good suggestions. I started to tell him what we were looking for with this kind of budget and he totally made some suggestions to make it not only beautiful but work at a lower cost. He really, I thought, was an excellent resource. I think the price was good. I think they charged what was fair. In fact, we are hoping to use them again for some work in the back.

Steve and team put in new front steps, rock wall and front landscaping. Overall an OUTSTANDING job. Steve put together blueprints that met our requirements and the final works was overwhelming. We get stopped by our neighbors all the time about how great the yard looks.
In this day and age it is challenging to find contractors that treat your home "like their own", the good news companies like Beachwood exist and anyone that uses them will be happy.
Note I did not get their name from Angie's list they were a personal referral but I do use Angie's list for assistance.

We are very happy with the results of the project. This is a high end service oriented company, and while expensive you get what you pay for. The work was done efficiently and with minimal delays. They returned as needed to make various repairs and adjustments as needed.
I would not hesitate to recommend or use them again for this type of project, however I am going to try and find a lower cost option for our seasonal maintenance and mowing.Kathryn B.

We are fine with them. We like them. The workers are very good. I usually don't know that they are up here. They come and leave a message on my door then go. Sometimes I see them sometimes I don't. They are very quick and responsive.

The work looks great and performs well. We were concerned about drainage and this has addressed that problem. We continue to use this company for our outside work and have been very pleased with the results. We have always found them to be very responsive to any problems and have had any questions settled promptly and to our satisfaction.

They were nice and everything, but just expensive, so I did it myself instead. If you have the money, they would be great. Since we chose not to use their plan, we had to pay them $400. He was professional, polite and they drew up a nice plan. I would use him if I have the money.

I contacted Beechwood Landscape Architecture & Construction through Angie's List on 6/8 and never received a reply as of 6/12. Gave them an F for Responsiveness and Professionalism. I understand that they may be busy especially with the rainier than expected season we're having here in New Jersey but I feel I still deserve at least an email at best stating they cannot perform the services I'm looking for at the moment for whatever reason. I say this because I did get a callback from another provider who explained as such and that was excellent customer service in my opinion and I would consider them in the future because of such. One of the worse customer service experiences is to be ignored by a provider as if you what you deem a "priority" is not as important to them.
UPDATED: I was pleased to see that Beechwood Landscape Architecture & Construction replied to my review via Angie's List. This at least shows they are concerned about what people are saying. As such, to be fair, I upgraded their Professionalism to a C and Responsiveness to a D. Unfortunately, my overall experience with them still was a bad one so I can only upgrade OVERALL Experience to D.

Response from Beechwood Landscape Architecture & Construction
"(member name removed), my apologies for the impression that your request went unanswered. I do not remember seeing the request. All emails come to me and I forward them to my office staff to touch base with the potential client. It may have slipped through the cracks but I will certainly touch base with Coleen. We are very diligent in responding to all requests and will be upfront with the client if we are not a good fit or our current work load would prohibit us from entertaining the lead. If there is still an interest, I would be more than happy to talk to you directly regarding your need. I just drove through Millstone yesterday. Let me know if there is an interest."

I called them back in December to get some ideas and pricing, Steve Chepurny responded immediately and we scheduled a walk through to explain what we were looking for. He came back as promised in about 3 weeks with a drawing and specifications on the work he was proposing. The plan was exactly what we were looking and went to contract with him. The work started as promised in May after all the permits were obtained and completed as promised. All the work was completed professionally and we are completely satisfied and would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them to anyone.

*UPDATE*: I had mentioned the owner's professionalism in my initial review, and because of that I am updating my review of Beechwood. As per his response to my experience with the work we had done on our property, he explained, in great detail, why our lawn had the issues it had, what we can do ourselves to improve it, and what they can also do for us. Although some of our experience with the results of the project were as we stated, for the most part I believe his explanation as to the late season, added to the topsoil issues that caused our weed problems, addresses pretty much the issues we had with the results of our landscaping project. I appreciate that they care enough about customer satisfaction to not only read and reply to the reviews posted, but also take the time out to try and resolve any problems that have surfaced with their customers.
We were initially VERY impressed with the owner, Steve, in the time and detail he put into the estimate on the work we needed done, and gave us two options on both the drain and the landscaping. He was also very professional and helpful throughout the process, even though were are disappointed in how it turned out.
We decided on the underground drain rather than just a drainage ditch, which was the first stage of the project. The work was done in a timely manner and looked to be a quality job, but it didn't work out how we thought it would. With the area of standing water being so low, the drain didn't work well enough without regrading, so we ended up having to get stage 2 done sooner than we thought, since the grading wasn't part of the 1st stage.
Again the work was done in a timely manner, and at first it looked as if they had done a very good job., so we had no complaints. As a lot of soil had been added, we spent a lot of time setting up sprinklers and watering to get the new grass seed to take, and at this time we noticed that the seeding looked "odd". I noticed in places that there seemed to be very little seed, and in other places there was this blue/green stuff on top of the hay they had put down over the seed. My husband explained that this was a combination of seed and fertilizer that they blow in when there are large bare areas, but this stuff was blown in on TOP of the hay; to me it looked as if they laid the hay and FORGOT to seed, then did the best they could to seed over top of the hay. My husband agreed that it DID look like that was what happened.
When we saw very little growth, we called Steve and explained to him that it didn't look as if they seeded enough. He informed us that, if anything, his people OVER-seed, and it was most likely due to the heat and lack of rain. I told him what I had told my husband, that it looks as if they laid down the hay covering and then realized they forgot to seed, but he didn't listen or didn't think I knew what I was talking about. I didn't want to keep complaining, so I let it go, but I know when I see NO seede and bare ground where seed should be; I've put grass seed down myself in the past.
While we were busy rotating sprinklers and watering like maniacs, I noticed that, rather than grass, we were getting TONS of weeds; ugly, thick, tall, fat stuff that you normally see breaking through the concrete in abandoned lots. Now, we all know EVERYONE gets weeds now and then, but you could tell the very spot where our old yard stopped and the new fill dirt began...not because there wasn't much grass, but because the WEEDS were so NASTY, all over the new areas. It was so pitiful; very little grass, tons of weeds.
I also noticed, within two weeks of having the work done, weeds starting to grow in the beds around the trees where they had lain the mulch. I called and told them that they forgot to treat the mulch beds for weeds before they filled it in, and they said they never do that. I explained that I wish I had known because I would have asked them to do it or I could have done it myself. I was told that it was too late in the season and that it never would have worked. I told THEM yes it DOES work, because I managed to weed the front of the house and half of the biggest bed, then treated it myself, and there were NO weeds growing. However, I had 5 trees with small beds around them, two fairly long beds in front of the house, two more fairly large ones inside my fence and a VERY large one outside the fence, and if I had known I'd be dealing with so many weeds, I never would have had it done, because it created MORE weeding for me instead of less. To add to the disappointment, these were the same huge, ugly, industrial-sized weeds as in the main yard. We have no idea where they get their fill dirt, but it had so much garbage in it, the only positive thing was they the weeds were green for the most part, so from a distance,l as long as we kept the yard trimmed, we were the only ones who knew how bad it was.
By this time, two other things happened; Steve called and told us he had done a drive-by to check on our lawn and saw how bare it was, so he said in the fall he'd have them come by and re-seed before they planted our bulbs (YAY!! I TOLD you!). The second thing was that, while I was trimming around the perimeter of the fence one day, I saw that they had apparently damaged it in three spots with their equipment when they had been here. I took pictures of the damage and sent it to Beechwood.
Throughout all of this, I WILL say that Steve remained very patient, polite and professional, and his foreman (also named Steve), was just as professional. Prior to them getting the repair done to the fence, the township had outside contractors working on adding handicapped curbs to all four corners at our intersection, and THEY managed to hit our fence as well. Steve repaired their damage as well as what his crew had done. They also stuck to their word and reseeded the lawn. But it wasn't how we were treated as customers, it was the quality of the work that was done. (EX: When they came out to plant the bulbs in the largest of the beds, they planted them all in the 2/3 of the bed closest to the driveway, and the other 1/3 got none at all.....150 daffodils, and none in one entire section, which looked very odd) When they came to do the mulch ring around our dogwood in the front yard that they had forgotten to do before, they AGAIN did not treat it, and didn't ask me if I wanted it done, even after the conversation we had. We had weeds in less than 2 weeks, even with the mulch.
I've seen the great reviews they receive, and that was one of the reasons we called them. Maybe we just got them on a bad season, or maybe a lot of the guys were new, but for $10,000, we expected a beautiful yard, but it was quite a mess.
This was all done last year. We have since added more seed (we still have more to do), managed to clear our the "trees" that are actually the nasty weeds that came with the fill dirt they used, and little by little are cleaning out the mulch beds that have no business being as weed-filled as they were.
