Outstanding work! The attention to detail made a huge difference, and my yard looks pristine. Neat, reliable, and easy to work with—will definitely be calling them again.

I needed someone to clear the overgrown plants and weeds in my front yard. I had let things go and it was an overwhelming mess. I set up an appointment with Custom colors for an estimate. I like the way he carefully assessed what the needs were, even taking pictures to show me exactly what he would be doing. That way, the estimate he gave me made sense - he didn't just eyeball the place and throw out numbers. He understood what I wanted made several useful suggestions as well. The actual onset of the job was delayed by a couple of weeks cos the rain would just not stop. But it was worth the wait cos he did a fantastic job. He is very thorough! I was not expecting so much attention to detail. He weeded and dug out invasive and overgrown plantings (roots and all). He trimmed my overgrown rose bushes. My garden beds had been invaded by Torpedo grass which has underground runners that travel for miles it seems. He pulled out as much as he could. When he was done, there were bags and bags of plants and roots he had been able to pull out. It was a lot and I was wowed! He applied some preemergent herbicide hopefully to slow down germination of new weeds. I plan to use him to mulch my beds as well and from what I have seen, that will go very well too. My one regret is that I did not take before and after pictures. I really thought his charges were reasonable. These days, it is impossible to get any work done without having to take out a loan! He was very reasonable.

Details: Residential • Medium (1,000 - 5,000 sq ft) • Over a month ago • Yes, herbicides are fine • No, I don't need to be there • Only one time

Amazing work and very responsive. I was struggling with weeds in my garden bed and couldn’t keep up with the hand-pulling. The service was prompt, professional, and worth the cost, which was reasonable considering time and labor.

I normally don’t write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience regarding Ryan’s exceptional work.

Recently, I found myself in a bit of a bind with a last-minute gardening job that needed immediate attention. I reached out to your company, and Ryan promptly came to the rescue. Despite the short notice, he showed up without hesitation and immediately got to work.
What truly impressed me was the tremendous job he did weeding and cleaning up my garden. Ryan approached the task with remarkable care and precision, paying attention to every detail. It was clear that he genuinely cared about the quality of his work, and the results were outstanding.
I’m grateful for his dedication and professionalism, and I wanted to make sure his efforts were recognized. Thank you, Ryan, for going above and beyond.

Ryan Joseph provided my family with much needed landscaping expertise. The weeds had taken over my back garden and the regrowth was exponentially surpassing our efforts to get the space under control. Mr. Joseph eliminated the issue in one afternoon that I had been struggling with over two seasons. I am grateful for his knowledge of local plants and foliage and for his professionalism. I highly recommend him for any job large or small as he seems quite capable and is a hard worker. He brings great credit to himself and to Custom Colors Botanical.

    It is a family business. Other members of my family have new england-based personal guarding services.
