I highly recommend Local Roots. Throughout our project which included a retaining wall replacement, patio extension, walkway install, and large landscaping work with all new shrubs and edging which included both stone and mulch areas all of the Local Roots personnel were friendly and professional and performed excellent work with quality materials. From the initial design phase and advice during the install to ensure that we had the most desirable results possible the team always communicated the status and timeline as well as any concerns or changes they would recommend as the project progressed

The Local Roots crew met all of our expectations with our patio and landscaping project and beyond. It was our first large project in our first home but I have no doubt we made the right pick. Things like talking through details ahead of time, attention to detail, adjusting the plan as wrinkles popped up, all were handled well and I felt confident quality work was being performed. Dylan and the crew was great, they worked hard through hot days and lent their own expertise to details of the project. The end result is awesome and plan to use Local Roots again in the future. Thanks a ton Ken, Dylan

Local Roots is absolutely incredible! I would trust them with any and all landscaping and hardscaping projects! This may sound cheesy, but it is absolutely accurate to say that Local Roots will make your dreams come true! Their work is professional, custom, and of high quality. They will give you exactly what you want AND make suggestions to even improve upon on your ideas. Most of all, they are TRUSTWORTHY and of high character, which is hard to find these days. Highly recommend this five-star company.

Localroots helped build my backyard ground up. They were extremely patient with the design iterations and on the job alterations as well. I have dealt with a few different landscapers in the past. The quality of work and professionalism from the crew is the best I have seen in the business yet. Would highly recommend them for any of the services they offer.

Due to recovery from treatment for cancer, we were not able to do our own work in our yard. Local Roots Landscaping came out for a day and VOLUNTEERED their time, skills and machinery and got our yard ready for new landscaping. They were professional, friendly and obviously, very good at what they do. We couldn't have had a better experience!

Local Roots was amazing on my job. It was a difficult and large project but they sunk their teeth into it and wouldn't let go until it was perfectly finished. Permitting and engineering would have made most companies run for the hills or try to cut corners, but they are super professional. ps their crew, equipment and material were top-notch.

Kenneth and his crew went above and beyond to satisfy the requests we had for our backyard hardscape. Professional from beginning to end! Greg and his team did masterful paving work - clean lines, improved the grades and left our place looking great! We will enjoy our yard for years to come.... These guys are top notch and I will hire them again!

I found Local Roots Landscaping through a neighbor who had some excavation work done. I needed a significant amount of fill removed from a construction project in our yard. The work was done quickly and turned out just as expected! Zach is friendly and helpful, even offering insightful advice as my backyard project is far from over. Patrick is very responsive to emails and the crew showed up on time as weather permitted. Highly recommended!

Don't hesitate to hire Local Roots Landscaping! From start to finish, it was great to work with them. The whole team was very friendly; they truly seem passionate about their job. We had multiple trees removed (one was even growing into our neighbors garage!), and the everything was removed with care. Kenneth was very easy to communicate with and helped explain everything along the way. He made recommendations without ever being pushy, and was able to take my ideas and make them happen! I'm painfully indecisive and they were so patient and flexible. We will definitely book them for any future projects
