Highly recommend Ideal Landscape! We had the pleasure of working with Chris and team for the installation of a backyard patio and firepit. The finished product is absolutely beautiful and a space we use pretty much daily. Chris and team made the entire process of design, installation, and cleanup seemless. More importantly, Chris was very easy to work with. approachable, patient, professional. We appreciated his attention to detail and dedication to the project. We will be calling Ideal Landscape for our future projects!

I have used this Chris and his team for large and small projects over many years. They have exceeded all of my expectations. I am a repeat customer and am willing to wait to fit their schedule so I get the results I am looking for. I highly recommend them. Service: Masonry repair & maintenance

We reached out to Chris in the fall of 2020 regarding a patio/fire pit install for spring 2021. Not only was the initial meeting with Chris thorough and informative, but it wasn't your typical sales pitch which is much appreciated when looking into home projects. He was kind and NOT pushy like many can be during trying to sell their business. He was realistic regarding timelines and pricing and helped us achieve exactly what we wanted for our backyard within our desired budget.

He was responsive and timely with email exchanges and timeline of the project. Chris even followed up with us after the installation to make sure everything was up to par. This service and quality is not something often seen especially in the crazy, busy world of home projects today. Thank you so much to Chris and the team at Ideal Landscape.

Chris and his team built us a beautiful back patio last spring/summer. This included tearing out an old cement patio, leveling the ground, and installing an underground drainage system. From the day of the estimate all the way until the project was finished, Chris made himself readily available and answered our every question. And his team was polite, neat, and efficient. When the time comes to expand our patio or add a front walk way, Ideal Landscape will surely get our business again!

Chris & his team are the best of the best. Professional, knowledgeable, and truly care about the service they provide. Chris's expertise is unmatched and the patio he built for us is something that belongs in magazines. Everyone who now sees my patio, complements Ideal Landscape and then wants to hire them for their own patios!

Chris King and his crew at Ideal Landscape are true professionals. The communication was great, they were on time, the work was done thoughtfully and carefully. The replaced a walk, created a paver apron in front of the driveway, replaced a flower bed, replaced a drain and created an overflow basin. They answered questions clearly, adapted to a change I requested, and I'm very pleased with the quality of their work. Highly recommended!

I can't say enough good things about Ideal Landscape. They did this enormous project for us and came through, not just with the beautiful hardscape, but lots of problem solving and helping us make the most of the space. Chris King is patient and thorough and his crew does meticulous, gorgeous work! We absolutely love it!

Ideal Landscape did a patio for us with a beautiful three tiered wall and we love it! We have been in our house for almost 15 years and we usually do one improvement every year - the patio is by far the best improvement we have done and we wish we had done it years earlier. Chris King, the owner, really listened to what we wanted and then used his creativity and expertise to come up with ideas and solutions. You can count on him to communicate, to be honest and respectful, and deliver beautiful, quality work!

Ideal installed a large patio and wall for us a few years ago and the quality of construction was outstanding. Also, the design process was very interactive and Mr. King went out of his way to make sure we were satisfied. The design was very thorough and robust and I anticipate that the patio and walls will last for generations to come!

We've hired Ideal Landscape for a few projects - all with amazing results. The owner, Chris King, is very personable, honest and hardworking. He and his crew installed a set of 10 foot wide blue Granite steps at our home a couple years ago. They came out perfectly and are absolutely beautiful. Chris also installed a matching granite mailbox post which we love as well.

My husband and I had spent a long time thinking about what we wanted, but it was difficult to find a great company. Chris King and the folks at Ideal Landscape are the best to work with. Recently Ideal Landscape installed an 18X26' shed pad, which looks great and provides a solid foundation for a large shed. Once again, top quality work with outstanding customer service. Chris was very flexible and patient with us as we had multiple meetings and conversations about what we wanted to do.

He's very fair and gives you his honest insights. Looking forward to working with Chris and team again this spring on additional landscaping projects. If you are considering hiring anyone, look no further. Feel free to reach out to me directly for further insights about our incredible experience with Chris.

Chris did walkway and patio on the back of my house and then later on he build a wall on the side of my house replacing stacked boulders. He did an outstanding job and I am looking forward to work with him again. I will be updating my review and adding the pictures when the job goes on. The job was completed withing contract time frame. Chris was stopping by on daily basis and was very easy to work with. He listens, provides professional information and is open to changes. It has been a pleasure to work with him and his crew and the results are outstanding.

I've worked with and recommended Chris and the Ideal Landscaping team for the past five years. They are consummate professionals who not only understand their craft, but also take time to understand your goals and objectives. The team has installed a large paver patio that was expertly leveled to allow drainage in the surrounding flower beds, they created islands and planting beds in our yard and routinely assisted us with maintenance and the selection and installation of new plantings. We've enjoyed countless outdoor hours admiring their work and continue to call them as new projects arise.

I can not recommend this company. Although I did not have work done by them they came out to quote a job for me. Walk through took an hour where I was given their idea for the job and told a few of my ideas. Made some compromises on what I was looking for. Was emailed later that night that I would not be getting a quote due to the scope of the work. Just felt like I coulda been told that when he was there instead of wasting an hour.
