Very nice folks here. They were helpful and friendly. I needed 21 lineal feet of river rock to edge a bark bed with. Yard guy volunteered to help me hand select the rocks I needed and to load them into the bucket on his loader. Price on the materials were superb. The office staff were very friendly also. Project turned out great. Will definitely be buying more materials from Dreamscapes in the future!

DreamScapes is amazing. We just could not keep up with all of it and they make out look easy. In just a few weeks, my yard has never looked better. Their crew is friendly and every single person at the office I have spoken to has had excellent customer service. I wish I had called them sooner.

We have used DreamScapes at our theater for over 10 years now and are always satisfied with their work. Their regular service is exceptional, and they are quick and thorough when completing any special work asked of them.

Beware! Once this company gets your contact information they will never stop emailing you! I had this company create a design for my yard back in 2013. I moved to Texas in 2019 and have been trying to be removed from their email list ever since. They don't have an unsubscribe button and they've responded to my request and told me they would remove me and I continue receiving emails. So frustrating and very unprofessional.
It's 2021, people! What reputable business doesn't know how to manage email with an unsubscribe option? Response to Owner: Yes, but you have only removed me in your business system, not your email system so I continue receiving emails. You clearly need an IT person to help you really clean out your email system from all the cached emails and add an unsubscribe button to your emails. Customers shouldn't have to guide you on how to run a basic business in 2021.

Richard and his team did an incredible job with my backyard. They totally transformed it into a space that I now love to be in. Communication was excellent. They got the job done quickly and with professionalism. I'm actually having them back to do more!

We've always been very particular about our yard. Several years ago we decided to try a maintenance company to care for our lawn. Dreamscapes has done an excellent job maintaining our yard the way we would if doing it. The staff are always very responsive and Richard makes occasional inspections to make sure things are up to his standards. Would definitely recommend Dreamscapes' services.

I had the opportunity to utilize this company for needing to get some rocks for my backyard. They were exceptional. They were professional. They were moderately priced and were also able to deliver. I didn't need to utilize this service but it's good to know that it's an option. Will DEFINITELY be back this summer for some more landscaping needs.
