After moving to a new neighborhood we learned Decorative Creations had done several projects in the neighborhood. As a result of the positive feedback and seeing their work first hand we chose them to landscape our courtyard. We would highly recommend them for any landscaping project you may have.

We've used Decorative Creations for several jobs at our house. They did landscaping, installed a french drain, installed a retaining wall, installed brickwork around trees and our front bushes, installed a back patio with beautiul brickwork, etc. I'm picky and everything was done incredibly and is still beautiful to this day (a few years later). Highly recommended.

Report
I had several mulch beds and tree rings for which I wanted brick paver walls installed and filled with river rock. I contacted Decorative Creations and they did a wonderful job. They are very friendly, responsive and helpful in terms of helping me understand options, pricing and general aesthetics. I am very pleased with their service and professionalism and would highly recommend them.
