Chadd was very knowledgeable, helpful, and patient throughout the design process for our paver patios, firepit, and steps, and I was very impressed with his quality of work and professionalism throughout the project. He made a point to check in with me to make sure I was happy throughout the installation period and made adjustments as needed. It turned out beautifully and I would definitely recommend Chadd and Pondering Gardens!

I can't say enough good about Chadd and his team. They listened to my ideas, gave me great advice, and I couldn't be more thrilled with our new retaining wall. From start to finish their attention to detail and last minute modifications was wonderful! I will absolutely call Chadd again for future projects.

Chadd and Pondering Gardens have done a couple of projects for me, and I will not hesitate to use them for any of my future projects. Chadd advised me well when I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted and completed the project earlier than expected.

From start to finish we couldn't be happier..Our patio is everything we hoped for..it really finishes out the house very nicely..As far as value, I thought the price was very reasonable especially after watching first hand just how much work goes into the patio foundation..Thanks again

We are more than pleased with the landscaping Pondering Gardens did at our house. Chad was professional, timely and had a great vision for our retaining wall project. It looks better than we could have imagined. We would not hesitate to work with Chad and his team again!

Our experience with Chad and Pondering Gardens was exceptional from our initial meeting through clean up. His design was beautiful and dealt with our struggle to landscape our deeply wooded backyard where we had had difficulty growing grass on the slopes leading to our walkout area. He tackled drainage issues, as well as, giving us natural outcropping steps, boulders and flagstone walkway, plus a beautiful plan for plantings. Our backyard could now be a feature in a landscape or garden magazine. I would highly recommend Pondering Gardens. Bonnie & Tom

I found Pondering Gardens online when specifically looking for a local company with (legitimate) higher ratings to help ensure a good overall experience. We needed to add a smaller double tier retaining wall behind our garage to fix a grade issue & add a garden space. We weren't quite sure what that would entail, what materials would fit the job, struggled to envision the finished product, etc. When Chadd saw the site you could tell he knew exactly what needed to be done, proved a handful of material options, and we proceeded from there. Chadd helped bring us along as the job proceeded, making

Chadd and his crew completed the project in record time. Chadd was responsive to our needs and consulted with us along the way. The result is beautiful and hopefully will channel water away from our foundation.
