Do not hesitate to hire Craig Pace and his amazing crew! We hired him in 2021 to redo the front of our 30 year old house. He completed the project on time, his communication was excellent. His crew was respectful and paid so much attention to detail. We replaced our old side walk and old tired landscaping with a paver step, walkway and patio. The project included sprinklers, lighting, plantings, mulch and a beautiful gas fire feature. WE LOVE IT!

We hired Pace to do build a patio and do some edging and mulch. They went above and beyond in their work. We are very pleased. Everyone we talked to was friendly and helpful. We kept adding things on for them to do and they were very flexible. We would definitely hire them again and recommend. Service: Mulching

Pace Landscaping was great. Craig listened to what we wanted and had a great design that fit our goals. They removed the old rock all around the house, graded and built a paver patio and walkway. Also added steps and path up a hill among many other items. Looks wonderful! The team was awesome. Worked hard during high heat. They were professional and did an amazing job. We would recommend this guys without a doubt!

Pace transformed our empty backyard hill with two tiered retaining walls. The quality is top notch. Craig and his team were able to expertly curve the walls around the edge of the house and the finish project looks great. Even with a couple of rainy days, it only took them about a week for them to finish and during the project Craig was easy to find and knowledgeable when I had questions and his staff were friendly. Pace also fixed our sprinkler system on short notice which now works perfectly. All in, a great experience.

Pace Landscaping did a great job adding concrete steps and second tier retaining wall in my backyard earlier this spring. They were responsive from the first inquiry. While I came to the table with an idea of what I wanted, they took it a step further and made it look even better with a few adjustments. We were faced with a slight challenge in that the project required access to my backyard via my neighbor's driveway.

They took the necessary precautions not to mark-up the driveway and were sensitive to my neighbor's concerns given the neighbors were under contract to close on their house the week after the project was completed. In the end, the work got done on time, they did a great job with clean-up (including my neighbor's driveway), and better yet the steps and additional retaining wall are a big improvement to the backyard! Will certainly be calling on them again if/when the need arises.

Our patio extension and fire ring look great! We had to reroute a drain pipe and it was no hassle and for less cost than any other quotes. Craig and team were flexible to our vision and checked in frequently to make sure we were satisfied. Would definitely call Pace again!

Had them replace rotting rail ties with block retaining wall. The whole process was quick and easy from start to finish they were done with it in a day and cleaned up the area too. We will be using them again for some grading work this summer. Reasonable prices too. Service: Irrigation system repair & maintenance
