I met with them to form a plan. A few weeks later we had a lay out. It was very professionally done and I loved it. The overgrown bush were hideous. They pulled them out and added the new landscaping. I love it! It adds so much curb appeal. Everyone was amazing to work with throughout the process. I would highly recommend this company and I really love that they are a local company.

Had new landscaping done across the front of our house and beside our garage. Matt met with us and got our thoughts and designed. Matt brought plans over for our approval and then schedule the work. The guts were friendly and cleaned up after themselves. It looks great.
Highly recommend Matt and his team.

We had an area of our yard that needed some TLC due to some erosion. Matt came out to see the property to see the damage and to hear what we were hoping to accomplish. He then came back to us later with some great suggestions that we ran with. The area looks amazing with the plants and the dry creek beds are working perfectly after some heavy rains that we have had recently. We could not be happier with the way it looks. Matt is very professional and has a good vision to help spruce up your property. I would recommend Matt & Hope and their company to anybody.

We called several landscape companies to address our landscape issues we have a very steep slope that made mowing extremely difficult and dangerous. Our goal was to eliminate mowing in these two areas of our yard. Matt was the first to return our call. He was responsive through the entire project. He came out to our home assessed our areas and talked with us about what we wanted to do, sour thoughts, and what plants we liked and didn't like. He's a good listener and he provided us with a plan complete with drawings and photos of what he thought would meet our needs best. After answering all of

A few years ago Boone Gardiner Landscaping designed and installed the flower beds by our front door, as well as a stone path leading to it. This year they also installed a gravel patio by our walkout basement. They do a very nice job and communicate very well to make sure you are happy with their work.

We are absolutely in love with our backyard design and landscaping. Matt designed our backyard a few years ago but we decided to do a few other projects first. When it came time to move forward Matt and his team came out and did an amazing job! We would highly recommend them and we look forward to working with Boone-Gardiner in the future.

We had Matt and his team install a new paver patio in our backyard. The entire team was responsive, personable, professional, and timely. Matt came out a couple of times to work on the landscape design and gave us a fair estimate. When there was a bit of a hiccup in one of the cost estimate, he worked with us to ensure we could still fit it within our budget. The patio and landscaping turned out fantastically. Highly recommend

BG have completed beautiful renovations of both our front yard and backyard landscaping - we loved our front yard experience so much we had them back!
In both renovations the designers really took time to LISTEN (!) and delivered innovative and visually pleasing ideas taking our preferences into consideration. The crews worked really hard every day no matter what the weather conditions. They were polite and personable, happy to answer questions and genuinely interested in planting the new trees and shrubs in harmony with the yard conditions and with homeowner input.

I have known Matt for nearly 20 years. I cannot say enough good about the landscape projects that he has done for me. The latest project, was the largest by far, and it went as smooth as could be. His workers were as professional as I have seen. They allowed me to help, which really means I was constantly in their way, and they never missed a beat. We knew from the beginning, the project would be a little fluid with respect to the placement of the materials. I often relied on their opinions and they hit home runs every time. Its was very clear to me, when it comes to landscaping, they do this very
