★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Working with Hursthouse Landscape exceeded my expectations. Initially, I wanted to repair the steps to our front door, remove the standing water and create an open play area for my kids, all while remaining true to our 1920s historic home—they delivered that and so much more.Hursthouse transformed the front entry into an ILCA Gold Award-winning space, complete with a bluestone walk, patio, and limestone porch that seamlessly integrates with the materials used to build our home, adding liveable space and curb appeal.In the backyard, they turned our 240’ deep lot into a family playground. While fixing grading issues, they created an open lawn for soccer games, added a 6’ deep natural stone sandpit with a water line (a favorite among the kids!), and planted much-needed privacy screening—essential on our 50’ wide lot. They created designated areas for the bbq, firepit, outdoor movies and outdoor lighting for the entire property.The entire design/build process was seamless and professional, my family looked forward to each day the Hursthouse trucks would arrive. Bob, Jeff and the team are welcome to stop by and play any time!Our landscaping improved the value of our property, and more importantly, enhanced the lives of our family.
June 17 · Dave PrickettWe built a new sustainable home in 2018 and started from scratch with the landscaping. Bob and his team came up with an incredible design that used native, drought tolerant plants in keeping with the sustainability theme. We live on a lake so they helped us design a landscape that's very natural and helps keep the geese off the property. They've also done hardscape work adding rock retaining walls, building a fire pit and creating walkways & paths with bluestone. This year we asked them to clad a couple patios and stairways with bluestone and they work they have done is amazing! Everyone we've worked with from Bob, the owner, to the crews laying stone and planting have been very professional, courteous and a joy to work with. They always leave our yard looking more beautiful than when they arrived!Read Less
June 17 · Alaina MurawskiThe entire Hursthouse team has been an absolute pleasure to work with. We started discussing our vision for an empty lot adjacent to to our home in 2021. Bob and his design team walked us through their entire process, and did a fantastic job pulling ideas out of my wife and I, iterating and refining a plan, working within our budget, and responding to any questions or concerns we had every step of the way. All the other design and install companies we talked to were the same - they just asked us where we wanted stuff put. Hursthouse was the first company we talked to that truly understood design and how to partner with customers to realize their vision together. Special thanks to Bob and Kyle for walking us through many design sessions, Ann for always being there for billing questions, Luis our Rockstar project manager, and Bill with the maintenance team.
May 31 · Christopher RWe are very happy with the results of the landscaping project implemented by Hursthouse Landscape. This project removed and replaced virtually all of our dated and overgrown landscaping, installed a new walkway and updated our front porch and patio with new hardscape. All of the teams from Hursthouse are outstanding. The design team, project manager, installation crews and office support staff were all extremely responsive and professional. The final results of the installation exceeded our expectations. We would recommend Hursthouse Landscape for any landscaping projects.
June 03 · Rick JungkMy wife and I have had an outstanding experience with Hursthouse. We recently renovated our patio, including with new pavers and a grill, and plan to complete the project in Spring, 2022, with a water feature. lighting, and plantings. From the initial consultation and planning efforts with Bob, to the administration through Ann, to the installation efforts of Luis and his very competent and hard-working team, we have been extremely impressed. Hursthouse clearly takes pride in its work and works diligently to provide consistent and helpful information and updates - very helpful to me as I am nowhere close to knowledgeable for a project such as this one. I appreciated the attention to detail throughout and the opportunity to consider various options for portions of the project (and receive useful information to help consider which option worked best for us), and, of course, the beautiful result. When we decided to move to 2 phases as well as when we decided to expand the scope, Hursthouse adapted easily (and patiently) and helped to make everything go smoothly. I should add that Hursthouse worked so efficiently and helpfully in an environment which has been beset with challenges given the pandemic. In the end, I strongly recommend Hursthouse for anyone considering a landscape project. Just an outstanding company.
