I highly recommend RiverStone Landscaping!!! Alan and his team did a phenomenal job. 💯 Not only are they professional, punctual and provide quality work at a great value, communication was also formidable. Alan is very responsive and kept me informed along the way. It is refreshing to work with a team that not only values clients’ time and does not waste it, but also takes that extra step going above and beyond to take well care of a client.

River stone landscape was great for installing our lawn. Gravel removal, compost, tilling were all included with our service. Sod looks beautiful and we are very happy with our new yard!!
Details: Residential • Small (less than 1,000 sq ft) • Installed onto bare soil • Clear gravel • I need the pro to provide the sod

Alan and his team did an excellent job! From my first meeting with Alan, I had a few ideas and he gave me feedback and we came up with a new plan and it turned out exactly as I imagined. Once the project got started the team was at my house early each day and got the project completed on time. Alan was very understanding to my needs and staying within my budget. I would definitely recommend him and would hire again in the future with any other landscaping projects I have. Thank you!

This review is slightly delayed as we jumped right into our new project adjacent to the landscaping project that Alan Hernandez and his team expertly completed at our residence. Alan and his crew were very prompt and professional from the get go. He came out to our house and listened to all of our requests whether they seemed impossible or not. I can genuinely say that Alan is very responsive and honest. Throughout the process of getting our yard done, we threw alot of mind changing ideas and he was forthright in giving us his professional opinion as to whether or not it would work or even look good. He was able to procure vegetation that maybe some may not even consider due to the season, but he and his team were able to pull it off. They were quick and precise, fulfilling our ever changing requests down to the last day and even fixed a few flaws that we noticed without question. A day after the work was done, a few of our neighbors even came over to take a look at the work and were thoroughly impressed at how much was done in such a little time. One neighbor was actually bummed out that they did not ask us with whom we contracted with before they signed on with another stating that they are paying almost 2.5 times for their project, in a smaller yard. We are truly grateful for Riverstone Landscape Inc's patience, understanding, professionalism and value. We are extremely happy with the work and would not hesitate to call them up again for future projects. I highly recommend this team for anyone that is looking for an upgrade to their landscape. THANK YOU RIVERSTONE LANDSCAPE INC.
