Landscape Architect reviews in East Brunswick, New Jersey

So happy with the work completed by Craig and his crew! My front yard looks amazing! Beth in the office was extremely efficient and Craig was professional, respectful and creative. Thank you!

Craig and his team were excellent! During the initial estimate I had a great discussion with Craig where he helped us optimize the paver patio design for our backyard. When it came to installation his team was efficient and professional. One stand out item is how well they cleaned up the jobsite after completing the patio installation, it was excellent. Our paver patio looks gorgeous and we will gladly be hiring Craig and his team for further landscaping projects! Highly recommended!

When we decided to update our backyard, we met with a few contractors but ultimately kept coming back to Craig's "vision". He gave us exactly what we wanted and more. The crew was professional and finished the job in a week. Craig was on-site every day and answered all of our questions and concerns. Our backyard seems more spacious and I absolutely love the lighting scheme Craig designed. I have sat in my backyard more in the two weeks since the renovation has been completed than I have in the past two years! We definitely recommend using Craig and his team!

I knew immediately upon meeting Craig that he is exactly who I wanted to perform the work and design of my front and back yards. The expectation I had was far exceeded, which makes me eternally grateful to him and his team. Not only did Craig’s vision functionally repair water issues I had, but the beauty still amazes me. He gave us the gorgeous paradise I only dreamt of, and fast! My patio is also incredible and I cannot even count all of the praises from guests.
I will forever be grateful!!!!

Craig designed and installed a gorgeous border around my back yard. I am so pleased with the result. He transformed an empty square of nothing into a beautiful space. He also recommended and installed a simple irrigation system for watering the plantings. Craig is easy to work with, creative, respectful of budget, and reliable. I was astonished at how quickly the work was done. I plan to do my yard in phases over more than one year and will continue to work with Craig. Highly recommended!

When guests and neighbors are clicking away photographs of the newly created landscapes in the back and front yards of your house and you hear comments like ‘an oasis’, ‘a paradise’, ‘it’s so calming and comforting’, you know it’s a job done extremely well and we agree !

Worked with Craig’s company to reimagine our back and front yards in two phases. He visited our property multiple times before starting work, listened to what we wanted, gave us honest feedback on what may not work in our property’s context and sent us artistic impressions of his visualizations. Once agreed, the execution is lightning fast, flawless and on time. He has a wonderful crew.

During execution, Craig does make subtle changes to the original plans and the outcomes are even better. Once engaged he treated the project as if he was transforming his own property. He went out of his way to get us very mature, rare and beautiful trees. We are extremely happy to get a chance to work with him and his crew. The first discussion we had with Craig convinced us that he was the right professional for our planned work and we did not feel the need to check with other landscaping companies.

The transformation of our property is complete and we cannot thank Craig and his crew enough. In the process, Craig, his family and us have become good friends.

Craig did an amazing job completely redesigning my backyard into a 5-star resort. He has great vision and 30+ years of experience with allow him to see what will work best in the space. He is truly an artist. Craig designed and built an outdoor kitchen and worked closely with the pool company (that he had recommended) and the concrete company (that he as worked with many times) to seamlessly integrate the beautiful landscaping. When it came to executing, Craig and his team delivered on time and with with great quality! Craig was excellent to work with - patient, thoughtful and understanding. I believe he approached my backyard as if it were his own and it shows.

Five star performance! Exceeded expectations. Great communications. Arrived when scheduled and worked with us during the project. Flexible and fair. Highly recommended and will have the back for additional work.

Landscaping By Craig brought our backyard dreams to life. Craig is extremely detailed in his approach of planning the job & ensuring any questions or thoughts are discussed or accounted for up front. We felt super comfortable and excited going into the project. Once Craig and his crew broke ground, it was amazing to see everything come to life. He is there on-site ensuring everything is perfect and keeping you in tune with progress and finishing details. His team was very professional and skilled at their various crafts. They turned our backyard into an oasis with a kitchen, bar and dining space, all surrounded by beautiful landscaping. We plan to make many memories (and meals) in our new space for years to come. Craig is the best in the business and we'd highly recommend him!

Landscaping by Craig did an AMAZING job!! They went above and beyond and exceeded my expectations. I am completely speechless with the end result and in LOVE with my new front yard. He came in and freelanced the design, his knowledge and expertise did not disappoint. It was a pleasure dealing with Craig and his team.

We wanted a landscaping that would be the talk of the town and guess what - THAT IS WHAT WE GOT and oh without breaking the bank!! We have received a lot of compliments. Craig understood our needs and came up with a design that complimented our house.

Craig is very knowledgeable and has an innate passion for what he does. The large crew was very professional, accommodating and were quick moving and fast working. This enabled the project to be done in a timely manner and NOT be a drag. He moved a couple of trees around for us until we found the best spot for them.

The project included hardscaping, softscaping, groundwork, landscape lighting. For a lot of these sub pieces of work, the prices were pretty competitive in comparison to a couple of other landscapers we had initially asked for quotes. The landscape lighting came out extremely well as well as the front walkway leading up to the main door including the natural stone seating on either side.

The choice of plants, shrubs, trees, etc gives a green look through the different seasons of the year and does not go completely barren during the long cold winter which is nice. Additionally, there is color throughout the flowering season from early spring to fall.

Whenever we discussed with him about a tree we would want and show him a picture, he would add his experience and expertise to it and the result was a product of what we wanted and what would naturally look good. We soon got used to each other's style of working and there was no looking back ;)...

Overall our experience with Craig has been wonderful and we are very happy with the finished product and with our decision to hire him and his company for our landscaping needs.

Craig came out to our property and told us his vision for an area that really needed attention in our yard. It wasn't a big job, but he still treated it as if it was. We never used him before but we trusted his knowledge and taste. He and his crew showed up on time at 7:30am and completed the job in a timely manner. They left our yard very neat and the area looks amazing! We will definitely be using his services going forward!

Craig and his team took my backyard and made it better than my dreams ever imagined.

Update… hired Craig and his team to do my front yard too. Another positive experience!

Craig and his team showed up at 8:00 sharp and in 6 short hours they produced one outstanding waterfall & pond in our back yard. They way exceeded our expectations. We look forward to a return in the next few months to expand their masterpiece to expand on their prior work.

If I had to summarize dealing with Craig in one phrase, it would be "exceeded expectations". It was a pleasure dealing with him from day one. He put together a plan of the backyard, really a vision, and broke it down into parts so that we could select any or all of it, as dictated by our budget. He described the parts really well, but hearing a description and seeing a drawing did not prepare us for how wonderful it would turn out.

Craig directly supervises his excellent crew throughout the project, and you will be amazed at how quickly they are able to accomplish extremely high quality work. He pays attention when you have questions or concerns and addresses them in a very satisfactory manner. We will certainly be utilizing his services for any future landscaping projects.

We wanted our front lawn redesigned and Craig and Zana were extremely professional and responsive throughout the process. When the day came to begin, Craig arrived with a full crew and got the job done in less than a day. We are very pleased with the results

Craig just finished a project for us this month (May 2025). We were very happy with his service. Craig designed everything for us and the job came out beautiful. The most amazing thing was he did a job that I thought would take weeks in two days. He came with 12 men and was at the job himself the entire time to make sure everything worked out. He quoted us a reasonable price and was great about taking care of some extra work we wanted done. We highly recommend Craig. Honestly, one of the best experiences I have ever had with a contractor.

Expert landscape planning and installation. Neat. Easy to work with- great crew. Landscape plan exceeded expectations — delivered on all discussed priorities and then some! Results are stunning - absolutely gorgeous. More importantly Craig is a perfectionist. Very supportive quickly addressed all questions. Very, very satisfied.

I am so thrilled with the end result of my front patio design by Craig and his crew! When I called Craig to give me an estimate, I had no idea he would completely transform the front of my house with the masterpiece he created. I always had issues with keeping grass and plants alive in the front of my house due to little sun exposure. That's why you will see I had the whole front
of my house with stamped concrete. His idea to create a path into my backyard by cutting out my existing concrete saved us so much money. Then he added plants that will thrive in my area with little sun and the right amount of irrigation. The plant choices, stones, lights and design are everything I have ever wanted. His crew is also extremely professional and so good at what they do! I would highly recommend this company!

Craig came out to our home and created clarity of vision from a few sketchy ideas I had of what I wanted the front yard to look like. The final product exceeded even what I imagined from his drawing! To make the transformation clear, please see the attached two photos of the job on the day it was done along with a before photo for comparison.

We are extremely satisfied with the look of the yard now; it feels inviting and a comfortable place to hang out. Even though our property is a small city property, Craig and his crew treated it and us with a respect and consideration that exceeded the size of the job. They completed this job in 1 day from start to finish (7:30 am - 2:30 pm) and for a reasonable price for all the stone retaining wall and fill work and the flowers, shrubs, and tree we received. It has only grown more beautiful with time as the plants took hold with daily watering! See the attached updated picture from today.

We recently hired Craig to redo the landscaping in our front yard and a privacy hedge by our driveway. He was the only landscaper we consulted that provided a drawing prior to starting the work. He was patient with our many questions as new homeowners and worked with us to generate a design we were happy with. The communications from Craig and team were top tier throughout the process, and the quality of the work was excellent. He even worked with us to accommodate special requests on the day of. We couldn't be happier with the work, including the lighting, and have received many compliments. We are so happy every time we look outside. We highly recommend Landscaping by Craig!
