Landscapers in Durham

“The owner of the house we purchased a couple of years ago, had abandoned the yard for years. We contacted a couple of companies for bids. Our requirements were that the plantings be deer and drought resistant since we aren't here in the summer and that we have a minimal amount of grass that wouldn't need watering. We liked Paul right away because he listened to what we had to say. At the same time he didn't do anything we asked for. Later on, I suggested a design element and he politely told me it wasn't a good design and he'd come up with an alternative. I liked that. One of our requirements was that he put in smaller plants or plants that spread to keep to our budget. and he did this.Our property is on a hill and we have a lot of serious drainage problems. Paul's design dealt with the problems and directed the run-off to the woods. His installer was also extremely knowledgable and had worked with Paul for many years. During the installation, he was friendly and went to great effort to find blue stone for the small patio that matched the stone in the 40 year-old path to the front door. The stonework for the small patio and a couple of retaining walls is fabulous. We watched and it was done with great care. We've hired Leisure Landscapes to do our ongoing yard maintenance. We couldn't be happier with the results. He accommodated the playground that my husband had built, and created a design that is welcoming and fits with the house. I'd recommend the company highly.“

“I highly recommend Pleasant Green Grass. We recently moved to Chapel Hill from Florida. We have learned that lawn care is very different here. Scott has been really patient with all my questions and Charlene is always quick to reply to emails. We love that Pleasant Green Grass provides organic lawn care. I am a cancer survivor and I feel confident that I am not walking through round up when I’m in the yard. That means a lot. Thank you Pleasant Green Grass!“

“This was a fun place to visit. Huge assortment of plants including aquatic plants, beautifully arranged. Everything was well cared for and healthy. Attentive and friendly staff.“

“Marcos was communicative, thoughtful, and very committed to making sure that the work we needed done was completed properly and within budget. He and his crew worked hard to fix some significant drainage issues in our yard and built a new retaining wall while also improving the accessibility and usability of our yard. I would absolutely use his crew again for any future projects.Services: Landscape design construction“

“These folks did just the most outstanding job helping me get a handle on my huge overgrown front yard. Trimmed shrubs, took out dead shrubs, installed a truckload of mulch, weeded, edged...just an amazing job. Hiring them again when I need more help! Prices were more than reasonable, too.“

“I had them plant 3 trees in my front yard. They were able to pick up and deliver the trees and did a great job placing them and getting them installed. They made sure to call 811 and get all the utilities marked and did an excellent cleanup afterwards.“

“We've been using LBC for three years and love the convenience of the annual plan. It takes the worry out of mowing, seeding, weeding, and leaf blowing throughout the year. The crew is friendly, and efficient and can answer questions when we have them. We recommend them highly and without reservation.“

“We were very pleased with Martinez Brothers. They cleared out the majority of the plants in the saw front yard of a house we had just purchased, replaced the dirt with topsoil and added a sprinkler system and a wrap-around walkway.. This summer, our flowers were spectacular thanks to their work. The staff works hard, cleans up at the end of the day and is respectful.

The photos show the flower garden and what that area looked like when they started.“

“For years Nazo has been our resource for mulch, gravel, compost and such. With a natural fence and privacy screen project in mind, Philip Nazo assisted. The first step was sending him photos of the area with a site visit as a next step. I then got to see the landscaping material recommended on a driving Gator tour. Nazo’s stock of mature trees and shrubs is especially impressive.

Once a landscaping plan was sorted, within a short time the installation took place. Philip overdelivered on the customer service and the trees and shrubs are mature, full and healthy. Aside from a little worry that they’ll outgrow their space, Philip assures us that given the light exposure, the natural fence will fill in nicely serving as a sound, site and light barrier.

Philip Nazo is passionate about plants. On both of his visits to our place, he commented on our mature plantings. He even discovered a fungus suffering redbud tree which is a concern for the native plant industry. He took a sample branch which may be helpful to the horticulture scientists researching a remedy.

Philip is the leader of their family business so be warned that he will upsell you at every turn! ; ) While the extra push for a few more trees and shrubs is difficult for an avid gardener to resist, when you’re working to stay on budget, Philip respects your decisions.

We’ve installed irrigation with recommendations from Philip and look forward to our new natural fence taking off. I highly recommend partnering with Nazo Landscaping for your projects.“

“DJS Lawn performed excellent service. High quality and worked quickly. I would highly recommend. Great communication and very nice people. The quality was better than I expected and cleaned up everything after they were done.“

“Had a great experience using their 50/50 mix when planting new grass seed. Great quality. Tilled in 3 inches to the existing soil. Worked great.“
