Hi, I’m Oj, owner of ISLANDscaping. I started this business because landscaping is truly my passion, and I take pride in treating every yard as if it were my own.
With 3 years in business and a small, dedicated team, we handle everything from lawn mowing and full-service lawn care to gardening, mulching, sod installation, shrub and tree trimming, planting, and more. I’m licensed and committed to reliable, detail-focused work that helps your outdoor space look its best.
Take a look at the photos of my recent projects, and if you like what you see, send me a message so we can talk about your yard. I’d love the chance to earn your trust and your business.

Island Landscaping Team was a pleasure to work with. Mary's prompt communication makes it really easy. The team did spring cleaning for my yard, weeding and removal of a thorny bush. I am definitely hiring them for my future landscaping needs

I needed significant pruning and general cleanup of both my front and backyard landscaping as well as some rearrangement (plant removal and several move and replant) of my backyard landscaping. The work was done on schedule, quickly, neatly and the result exceeded my expectations for the price I paid.

We recently worked with Islandscaping to remodel the street-side slope in front of our property, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. The team transformed a neglected, overgrown area into a beautifully designed and easy-to-maintain landscape featuring decorative gravel, new plantings, and a well-defined stone border. We’re delighted with the outcome and would highly recommend Islandscaping to any neighbors considering outdoor improvements.
Details: Residential • Maintain an existing garden • Medium (2,500 - 5,000 sq ft) • No, I need help buying plants • I don't need a sprinkler or drip system installed • As needed • Trimming and edging • Weed prevention • Leaf cleanup • Mulching

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My typical process with a new customer starts with an introduction followed by a walk-through. During the walk-through, we work together to agree on a fair price for the project. Once the price is settled,I like to get started quickly, whether it’s designing a new yard or performing a simple cleanup. After completion, I like to send the customer before and after photos to showcase the work that was done.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I got into landscaping because I started working for landscaping company’s and simply helping out with projects for my friends and family. I also got into it because I enjoy being outside and working with nature, As for my team they have a knack for design and they enjoy the satisfaction of creating something from scratch with 3D renderings and turning it into real life!
Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
In just two days, my team and I transformed a customer’s backyard. We began by discussing their design preferences, then provided a 3D rendering to show what the finished yard would look like. After completing the work, the customer was extremely satisfied with the results.
