Report
I cannot say enough great things about Richter Landscaping! After several years of planning and different contractor interviews we selected John Richter and his team during COVID 2020. John came out with Project Leader Andrew and spent invaluable time going over the plans and gave us more great ideas before we started. They told us it should take 2 months but we were not in a hurry knowing how some other companies delivered on promises.
The Foreman ADOLPHO was amazing with his expertise and knowledge being able to make small changes as we progressed. Even with Hurricane Zeta coming thru and knocking down a huge red oak which required very large crane to remove, Richter finished the project in 2 months. We had a challenging sloping terrain to deal with but as you see the pictures before and after it's an amazing project. We get comments from friends who say, "this project is like something out of Southern Gardens!" We highly recommend John and the Richter team! Thank you John!
