Customer Feedback:
Birkmyer Landscapes
“We went with Phil because he was in The Good Service Guide, and also our perception that he could bring what we really wanted into our backyard, and within our budget. The choice of plants was completely his, and he did a super job. We’ve very pleased and we would recommend him to anybody.”

Customer Feedback:
Columbine Landscaping
“They re-did my whole front yard, hand built stone walls and terraces, and made a very lovely space. They put in a sprinkler system and ground cover, and made the whole yard look brand new. That was 6-8 months ago, and she’s already followed up to replace some plants and put down more ground cover. I can call her any time and she will follow up.”

Customer Feedback:
Sven’s Cabinet & Furniture Refinishing
“The finish on our cabinets was not holding up, so we had Sven’s come out, take the old finish off, and put a new finish on. We were very satisfied with their work, had them back to re-do our family room door, and will soon have them back to fix some fading on our living room door. I feel very comfortable with Sven’s in this sense: everytime I hire them to do something, it always works out.”
