JJ did a GREAT job tackling some fairly challenging work in our yard. First, he replaced the grass lawn at the front of our house on a fairly steep slope with honeysuckle shrubs and mulch. Second, on the side between the house and sidewalk, he removed many volunteer rose of sharon shoots and various weeds, and replaced them with hosta plants and river rock. All of the work, including the removal of old material and the hefting of river rock, required going up or down the sloped front yard, and JJ's team was completely unphased by this. And despite this extra challenge, they did such a neat job with ALL of the work, including setting the river rock carefully along the edge of the sidewalk so that it wouldn't settle and move onto the sidewalk. He also gave clear instructions on how to care for the young plants in the heat of summer. The yard was completely transformed, and I can't think of a single thing that could have been done better. I was literally delighted by the work done and the entire experience. I would definitely recommend JJ's Landscaping to others. (note: the work was done in July, but I only found the time to write the review after the December holidays... just slowness on my part... but it also gave time for me to see that it wasn't just a first impression but a lasting transformation)

JJ poured and finished the pad for my hot tub. Outstanding job for a fair price. But more importantly, he showed up and executed when he said he was going to do the job. Definitely calling this guy for more concrete work.

We had a large hill taking up most of our backyard. JJ and his team did an excellent job maximizing the space we could claim back. He kept us informed on all updates, delays, and price changes throughout the entire build process. He was willing to adjust on the fly multiple times when we had different ideas about where to place plants and stairs. We more than doubled our usable flat yard for a very fair price. Can’t thank him enough!

Hi!! Jj’s is the go to professional landscaping company you’ll ever need!! We had over 30 year old wood and stone walls and steps that were failing and needed replacement. The projects were done in two different jobs and both projects were done professionally and promptly!! So if you ever need anything done correctly and efficiently Jj’s is the company to hire without any hesitation!!! Thanks again Jj!!

They completely transformed my yard! My backyard gave me such anxiety because the hillside was washing away that my porch sits on and it looked terrible with debris leftover from the previous owner. JJ removed all of that and solidified the hillside with mulch and plants. It looks amazing. I could not be happier.

Hillside on the side and back of house needed much attention. All the old junipers were huge and dying. They all needed removed, along with a wall and removed a dead tree. Hillside is perfectly evened out, new junipers planted, all new mulch. Looks wonderful. I wanted something very simple to care for and this will be. I would definitely use them again if I need any more outside work done.

I needed a landscaper to repair a failed retaining wall (full deconstruction and reconstruction) and contacted JJ's Landscaping for help. He came out the next morning to give me an estimate and explain the scope of work. His crew started repairing the failed wall about two weeks later, and they were all very professional and did great work. They were able to reconstruct the failed wall in just 3 working days, and the wall was properly constructed to Versa-lok standards and looked better than before. I would recommend JJs Landscaping to anyone that needs a retaining wall put in or repaired or for any other landscaping services. Key positives: - Professional - Punctual - Did great work and knew a lot about installing retaining walls/versa-lok standards - Responsive and polite - Cared about quality of work and getting job done in a timely fashion

I own a duplex and a single family home in the suburbs and whenever we need landscaping work done I contact JJ. He has done everything from building a fence, to turning basically a gravel pit into a beautiful backyard, to updating an out of control overgrown mulched area into a crisp and clean river rock show piece. I've lost count of the neighbors who have walked past and complimented the work JJ and his crew have done. They are reliable, affordable, and responsive. I can't recommend JJ highly enough.

JJs replaced our gravel driveway with concrete and added concrete steps to a slope in our backyard. JJ was easy to communicate with, and he and his team did a really nice job. I plan on working with him again in the near-future to replace the fencing around my yard.

We contacted a number of companies before deciding on JJ s landscaping for our new patio. His excellent reviews and prompt responses were appreciated. JJ arrived when scheduled with a large crew of very hardworking men. I wasn t really sure exactly how I wanted the patio done and he gave me some excellent suggestions, including an intricate pattern on the patio. We were so impressed, my husband asked if he could also repair the railroad -tie steps to our lower yard and trim some bushes too. I was really pleasantly surprised when he agreed as we had been unable to find anyone willing to take on those jobs. Everything was completed within two days which included a last minute decision by us to add paver stepping stones to the lower yard. He did an absolutely incredible job for a very reasonable price. Wish I knew how to add photos to this review so everyone could see how gorgeous our backyard looks now

JJs did a great job with my yard and I recommend them for anyone looking to have a quality job done

January 23, 2024

Scheduled an appointment a week out for 9-11 am. We blocked out the morning and they never came. We tried calling and texting between 11am and noon, and recieved no response until 8pm that night shifting the blame to us. If this is how bad they are before we hire them, I cant imagine them as a contractor.

JJ and his crew are professional, knowledgeable, and dependable. We have done a few projects with him in the past couple years including mulch, weeding, grading the yard and this year he installed a new u-drain and poured concrete to fix our driveway. We appreciate his quality and effort, and we trust his company to always get the job done right. Highly recommend his services.

I hired JJ to take care of some landscaping that was beyond me and my girlfriends skill set. It was easy to get in contact to set up an estimate, we communicated back and forth via email regarding the estimate and when he could take care of what we needed done. Then he showed up on a rainy day, knocked out 2 small spruce trees, a couple bushes, and even a stump we didnt ask him to dig up (but I was dreading trying to remove). His work was quick, he was professional, and and it doesnt look like those trees and bushes were ever there to begin with. Will definitely hire JJ again if we need more landscaping help.

Damaged old cypress bushes and dead tree removed and replaced with quality boxwoods, golden spirea, and pink dogwood tree. 3 guys made quick work and left a clean yard. Extremely happy with results! Pleasure to work with. Definitely recommend!

I had to post my review because I see someone is posting fake comments about his companies responsiveness and professionalism. JJs Landscaping is one of the few contractors I have dealt with who was very responsive and JJ clearly takes great pride in his work. He did concrete stairs for us and he and crew did a great job. I get so frustrated at contractors because of their lack of response, and this company does not fall into that category.

JJ and his crew completely overhauled the landscaping and hardscaping on a house we were using as an investment property; quality and cost were critical for the resale of the house. The job had multiple phases and was completed on time, with great communication, within the budget and the work was beautifully done-it was an AMAZING experience-I would HIGHLY recommend JJs Landscaping to anyone who needs work done.

JJ replaced a failed french drain to address water issues that we were having around an addition to our house. He was able to identify why the existing drain was failing, as well as some other issues that we were having with water coming into the foundation and address them. He also put in a new concrete porch/patio and walkway for us, which looks great. JJ and his team were very professional and addressed all questions/concerns that we had.

Quick quote and quick work. Two days and our great looking walkway was complete. Options/advice/expertise added to the final work made us feel like we got a great value. Our neighbors referred us and we are passing on that referral. Thanks a ton!

We recently hired JJ s Landscaping to complete some concrete work at our house. My husband and I were extremely impressed with JJ and his crew, from the initial estimate through job completion. They were very professional, taking extra measures to ensure that our lawn and house were not damaged during the process of installing the new concrete. We are beyond pleased with the finished product and would highly recommend JJ s Landscaping. We look forward to using them again soon for our next project!!!
