“Michael Spence with Trillium Gardens did a fantastic job making over our front yard! Initially he came to our home for a consultation to determine what could be done. He provided a quote within a week and upon our acceptance of the quote, he scheduled our job for completion. We would certainly hire him again and definitely recommend him!”

“We are so happy with stone tiers results. Big job. So friendly, professional. You won't find a more trustworthy and dependable landscaper.”

“They did a fantastic job! I highly recommend them. I have a house on the James with a fantastic view I did not want obstructed. I also wanted a great patio, elevated to maximize the view. The old patio needed to be demolished. But because of poor rear access it needed to be carried by wheelbarrow to the front. The new pavers and fill also had to be hand wheeled back to the rear, about 20 pallets of heavy material. In addition to the patio I needed my front walk replaced. I am a VERY detailed person with and engineering background. Josh spent tons of time over a 6 months to help me design the patio to meet my needs. I also contacted 5 other companies that claimed design and build services. None of them took the time to design the patio and listen to my needs. On two occasions Josh drove me out to show me other projects he did and how they addressed problems like mine. It was interesting that the other home owners were so friendly and eager to show me Josh's work. I went with Commonwealth because of all the effort to address all my concerns before starting. During the work I had some changes. A added a gas line conduit for a fire-pit and grill and electrical wiring at no charge even though it was not in the plans. I think other companies make their money on these change orders. Commonwealth was not the highest quote, one was double Commonwealth. But among the final 4 contenders they were the highest. But for the amount and quality of work they did I got a real bargain. During construction they paid careful attention to drainage and wall strength. They were careful to install geo-fabric and tamp each layer of fill in. (there is a youtube time lapse video I posted that's amazing. There has been no structural movement after 7 months including many freeze cycles. . And for the front walk Serg (their foreman) discovered my existing walk was off center by 8 inches over a 50 foot run. Not much, but it is this attention to detail. All of their works were very courteous and they cleaned up great. (The before photo shows a PVC frame to help me visualize the site lines from my kitchen window.)”

“I am pleased to give my highest recommendation to ARL and Daniel Bradshaw. The landscaping work was completed beautifully, on schedule, and within the estimated budget. Thank you for dramatically improving the functionality and form of my landscaping. I look forward to continuing to request his services on more landscaping projects in the near future.”

“JW's team is outstanding. They are quick to respond to requests, professional and deliver an excellent quality of work. They are not the cheapest but, you definitely get what you pay for.”

“Excellent local company that gives exceptional value for its efforts. We had them install our sod for our front lawn. They more then met our expectations: They tested the soil, added amendments from a excellent source, they graded the site and spent at lest a day and a half with prep. They delivered the sod in the morning and with a large enough crew had it all laid that day. They spent the next several weeks coming by and watering even though they had the sprinklers on a timer. Finally they gave us a month of free mows by one of the all time best grass cutters we have ever seen. Much of these items and several others were not specified in the contract... they simply were pros and did the job right. They charged more than many other companies but the price was a deal for the quality job that we received. It has been at least 6 years since the installation and we still have them take care of our weed control and the excellent mower is still helping us...and the lawn is a WOW.”

“Nancy did a wonderful job of listening to our wants, needs and future plans for our yard and then articulated that into a wonderful design!”

“Carville Landscape Co. did a front and back yard renovation for me. They took up an old brick patio and redid it using the original bricks but used proper base to make sure it was level and cleaned up the old bricks. It is beautiful and useful now. The did my front yard planting knockout roses and other plants which gave it color and balance. The design and planting was great and the price was right.”

“I saw Creations Unlimited truck working in my neighborhood on October 23rd; I stopped and talked to one of the men; I told him I needed 3 Rhododendron stumps removed; he went to his truck got Kenny's number and gave it to me. I called Kenny and he came to my house within 3 hours. Today October 24th the stumps have been removed, less than 24 hours. Kenny quoted a price for the removal of the stumps, he came down on his price because the job was less labor intense than he thought. He was efficient and honest in his pricing, we will hire him again. Mary Jo and Bernie Roberson”

“Sebastian Landscape and Tree services was the best thing I could ever hire to help me in my yard. The price was the best I ever thought about, his job was completed on time and everything was done better than I expected. I would recommend this company for all my friends and family.”
