Steve and his crew have always done stellar work for me at my home. I have had landscaping redone, spring and fall cleanups, lawn and sprinkler system redone, and landscape lighting installed. They have always been responsible, professional, respectful of what I wanted done, cleaned up after themselves, and work was completed in a timely manner.

I had an 11am meeting set up with Stephen to look at a commercial job that I was interested in him doing. He was aware I was driving from 4 hours away to meet him. At 11:20 no sign of him, so I call. At first, he didn't realize who I was, then said okay, I'll be right over. When he finally arrived, at 11:30, I simply said "not a great way to start a relationship " to which he turned around, waved, got in his truck and left. Clearly unprofessional but also just plain weird

They did an amazing job on an air conditioning pad and retaining wall in our back yard. So good that I'm having them quote me on more work. They also cleaned up the work area, graded it and spread grass seed down.

Contacted Steve to move a shed. He came to see the project and he gave me a fair quote. Communication was a bit of a challenge sometimes but he did excellent, professional work and his crew was nice also. Work completed in a few hours on 7/14/20. There was some damage to my lawn but he told me this might happen and it was to be expected, not really worried about it. Workmanship: 5. Communication: 3.5. Professionalism: 5. I would contact Steve for future projects and would recommend him to a friend.

We were so happy to find Stephen after we called 5 other companies trying to get a quote for redoing the hard scaping of our pool side. Stephen gave us a very reasonable and accurate estimated price and the actual cost is right around the estimate. His work crew is very professional and efficient. During the process, Stephe proactively communicated with us to make sure everything was what we wanted. The hard scaping was beautifully done and was what we expected. We highly recommend Stephen!

Stephen Roberts designed and executed a large and complex landscape project at my home in Longmeadow in the spring of 2020. We wanted to replace almost the entire front landscaping of the house, but we did want to keep some shrubs and plantings in the back and have him work around a large deck project. He had a blank slate in some areas and some tight (owner specified) constrictions in others. Stephen was extraordinarily knowledgeable about what plantings would work in different situations.
He worked extremely well in concert with other contractors and two months in, the project looks fantastic. We threw a few curveballs at him along the way which he handled with ease. His crew was solid, he was in budget, and the outcome has added a great deal of value to our home.

I have had the privilege of working with Stephen and his company for the past 7 years on a professional basis as a partnering employer for my nonprofit. He has the biggest heart of any employer I know. I have also had his company work on my landscape for the past several years. Every year, I chip away at a small project and Stephen is the first person we think about to help us make our home our dream home. He's professional and has a great sense of humor. I certainly trust Stephen to help us make our dreams a reality. Thank you
