  I cannot recommend Modern Scapes highly enough! My wife and I decided the pandemic was a good time to do some major work on our backyard, which had been neglected since we moved in six years ago; it lacked shape and had drainage problems. We had seen a sign for Modern Scapes about a year prior, outside a house nearby, which had installed a new fence that looked far better than most do in our neighborhood--modern, striking, and clearly well-built. We called the number we had written down from the sign to make an appointment for an estimate. We met Joe, the business owner, and mmediately knew we were in excellent hands. He listened to our concerns and ideas, offered his own valuable insight, and together we made a plan, first for a new wood fence to define the back edge of the backyard along with a new drainage system, and then eventually to install a bluestone patio with a wood pergola. Every aspect of both projects was an absolute pleasure. Joe was clear about the dates he and his team would be working, and then kept to those dates (one of the projects even finished ahead of time). The pricing process was easy and clear, and Joe was wonderful to work with, personable and professional at every turn. But what's most notable are the results, which are spectacular. Joe is a perfectionist, and his attention to detail is apparent in all aspects of his work. He listened to all of our ideas--even our less clear ones--and found elegant ways to implement them. We ended up with a fence and a patio/pergola that people stop to compliment, all the time. As one of our friends said, after seeing the completed fence, "You just don't get a fence like that in Binghamton"--meaning that beautiful and well made. With Joe, you do

  Joe and his workers did an amazing job creating a new tree bed and planting trees on our property. He is thorough and works with an attention to detail. I absolutely would hire him again and highly recommend him to anyone.

  We hired Modern Scapes to build a fence and a deck at our new home. Joe was a pleasure to work with, the entire experience from the planning stages through completion was excellent! Joe and his team went above and beyond to make sure we were involved in all the steps along the way. Quality workmanship and attention to detail made for an amazing finished product. We absolutely love the work they did and would definitely hire them again for any projects we have in the future

  Joe was very responsive and professional in all interactions. He was very timely and got me in his schedule much sooner than anticipated. He did a beautiful job on a brand new sidewalk and took all the mess with him, and even put down grass on all the areas where the old side walks were previously. He went above and beyond my expectations, the quality of his work is unmatched

  Our back yard slopes downhill. There is a flat section near the house that was terraced: 2.5 foot retaining wall built out of railroad ties, and then flat stones laid on top of those for a short set of stairs leading down to next level. All of that was deteriorating, stones were loose, couldn't safely walk down much less haul the lawnmower down. Northern Scapes dug out the whole area, built a gravel base, then concrete blocks, then nice bluestone steps. That was two years ago: the steps are extremely solid, I expect them to outlive me. And attractive. It took a bit of time to get on their schedule. But the person who came out to do the estimate was punctual and professional, and the workers who spent two days on this project were pleasant young men who tidied up well

  We have a large home and I had let the landscaping around the foundation go for a couple years. I found Modernscapes (Joe Smith) and got a quote. They removed a lot of heavy growth... much work involved. Dug out and fully mulched along the front and sides of the house. Also, one side had never been done and they did a fantastic job. They added a river rock border to the planting beds which really brings the work out and helps keep the mulch in place. The plantings are wonderful ... hostas, rose bush, ornamental grasses, asters, daisies, etc. In addition, we had about 5 ton of river rock added to our pool area. Its an above ground pool and the rock border truly shines. The bulk of the rock is under the decks of the pool... a very classy looking upgrade. They also removed a flower bed that we have not wanted since moving in. It is now seeded. Joe (owner) and James (laborer) were fantastic. Friendly, respectful, nice guys. Hard workers, listened and gave great advice. The cost was very fair and I am happy with it... I picked 'good' simply because I only got the one quote... I like Joe from the start. So... good price because they did a great job, it felt fair, and was done in a timely fashion. But, I cannot say if it was great as I have no comparison. Knowing what I know now (the outcome)... the price was worth the work for sure Punctuality... Excellent. Now, it was June when I decided to do this... so we had the work done in Sept. If you want to hire a landscaper and wait until June to call... expect you won't be seen 'the next week'. That said, Joe was on top of things... kept us posted and when we finalized a date, they were here on time, worked hard, and finished when they said they would. Overall...excellent. highly recommene

  The day of the excavating, Troy, the crew chief, contacted me at work to say that the sanitary sewer line was not in fact made of orangeburg (an inferior grade of material), but steel, which would have a much longer life span. (A previous vendor had told me the line was made of orangeburg(. For a mutually agreeable reduced price, I opted for them to simply install the cleanout access and the check valve near the house and not to dig up and replace the rest of the sanitary sewer line. The crew was quite expert at the excavation, which was right up against the house and near a gas line. The digging included extracting and replanting two large juniper shrubs, which survived, thanks to the speed and the surgical precision with which the crew worked

  Joseph Smith did exactly what we discussed and he left my property looking the same way it was before he did any work. You could't really tell any digging was done. Very pleased with the work that was performed. Joe is very hard working and thorough I would highly recommend him.
