Groundworks Landscaping is a wonderful company to work with. They have a great design team/office that helped us to come up with beautiful and innovative ideas for our property! We also enjoy all of the fun family activities that they host at their office/property, they are a true local business all about community and making the east end an even more beautiful place one yard at a time. I can't say enough about them but bottom line, you will not regret your decision to work with them on your project, whatever it may be.

We are so happy that we used Groundworks. They are detail oriented, thorough, responsive and responsible. They show up when they say they will and then guide you through the process. They worked through weather challenges to make deadlines. I recommend them highly.

Incredible attention to detail, workmanship and customer service. We have worked with Groundworks for a number of years in various way but had them do a huge overhaul of our small property in East Hampton village when the front yard drainage issues posed a continuous problem. They not only fixed the issue in a timely manner but we contracted them to do a beautiful landscape plan that has enhanced our small parcel to no end.

We are so grateful not only for their fantastic ideas and execution but also their weekly care to the yard (through our yearly contract agreement) and how fast they have reacted anytime we have had a small issue pop up. Thank you Groundworks - for everything.
