Landscaping reviews in Cary, North Carolina

When I reached out to Dylan at Genesis I had been staring at the project that was my backyard for over a year trying to envision how to solve for a terribly sloped space that had zero ability to grow grass (or anything). I had made some progress from where it started, but I felt like I was never quite going to get where I wanted it. A couple weeks of work with Genesis and I have the outdoor space I've been dreaming about.

You shouldn't doubt for a second when this group says they treat every project like it's their own home. They take it to heart and hear what you want/need, and will provide great recommendations to getting you there. I watched the team meticulously place every single paver and stone.

I was raised being told to take pride in my work and to never cut corners, and so it's very obvious to me when I see others who subscribe to that same mantra. These guys do and that's who you want to work with. Could not recommend them any more highly.

I couldn't be more happy with the work of Dylan, Jack and Ernesto on my patio! Before the "sale" Dylan was so responsive and helpful with the details (including finding me great deal on the stone!) During the project Jack oversaw every detail. Ernesto (both father & son!) did great work. After, Dylan stopped by twice and was focused on our satisfaction. On time, on budget and exceeded my expectations!

I hired this company to install a small (12 ft) patio. My priority was to have a patio area that a wheelchair can easily access. Jack and Dylan came out to look at the yard and discuss the project. I received a quote a few days later. They completed the project in 3 days (the delivery truck was late).
I couldn’t be happier! They did what we discussed, they were on time every day, and fun to have around. We’re enjoying the patio and look forward to using it more!
I will definitely call them again for future projects!

Genesis did an amazing job on our outdoor walkway/patio extension! The team was always quick to respond and was very accommodating as we sought HOA approval. We will be using them for any future projects and highly recommend them for anyone looking to upgrade their property!

Dylan and his team were AMAZING! From day one they were available to help us redesign our very complicated yard. Dylan came to our home to discuss pricing, as well as where we could save on the project. We would highly recommend his team for any yard design needs. We are extremely pleased with the whole process and the customer service was among the best I’ve experienced! Thank you genesis lawn and garden for making our dreams come to life!!

Dylan, Jack and the crew did an outstanding job repairing our failed retaining wall and poured a nice concrete slab on our gravel driveway. They were clear and fair with the cost, the work was done in a timely manner, and the end result was as good as hoped. We will use Genesis Outdoor Living again when a need arises.

We had an amazing experience with Dylan & his crew at Genesis. Every single person involved has a high attention to detail & emphasis on quality work, which made us feel very comfortable at each stage of the process! Dylan was patient in explaining every single step, and the crew was incredibly methodical and detail-oriented. Everyone was professional and kind, and we are thrilled with the results. We strongly recommend this for anyone looking to make the most of their yard!

I cannot say enough good things about Dylan and his team. After a year of taking care of my yard by myself I noted several problem areas making it a bit challenging for me to deal with. Dylan came over and I discussed/showed him my concerns along with some thoughts I had in mind. My goals were to make maintaining the yard easier for me and to improve upon the aesthetics of my outdoor space. Dylan had some fabulous ideas and I immediately knew I wanted him to assist me. It has been just over 2 years since the work has been completed. I am still thrilled with what they did and have been able to maintain my yard easily. I definitely spend more time outside working on the yard and natural areas than I ever had. I highly recommend them! I will be contacting them in the future to discuss a hardscaping project.
*The attached picture was taken April 2023 to show how well I have been able to maintain my yard as a direct result of Dylan’s help 2 years ago.

Dylan and his group did outstanding work, and were excellent problem-solvers when the inevitable real-world realities didn't match the design. I'd highly recommend them for any outdoor hardscape project.

I am so grateful for Dylan, Jack and their team at Genesis Outdoor Living. They were absolute lifesavers when it came to fixing my poorly installed paver patio. The previous contractor had done such a terrible job; leaving me in a difficult situation which necessitated me terminating the paver installation. Genesis was able to correct the many deficiencies which I was left with and create a stunning paver patio. Jack was on site every day to supervise the installers. I must add that Angel and Jose are true artisans when laying pavers, I was stunned by their attention to detail.

Dylan and his team were professional, knowledgeable, and efficient from start to finish. They took the time to understand my concerns and explain the process clearly. They carefully removed the old pavers, corrected the underlying issues, and installed new pavers with precision. The end result is a beautiful and functional patio that I'm incredibly proud of. The pavers are perfectly aligned, the surface is level, and the overall look is stunning. I'm so impressed with the quality of their work and their attention to detail.

I highly recommend Genesis Outdoor Living to anyone in need of concrete paver services. They are true experts in their field and go above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction. Thank you again, Dylan and your team at Genesis!

We consulted with a few other contractors but Genesis was a clear winner. Dylan has an eye for details, expertly crafted the perfect design that we wanted and made it come true. He answered all of our questions with professionalism, knowledge and patience. He was always responsive; within minutes of emailing he would call me. He really cares about you! It was our first very big house project and he made us feel very secure every step of the way. He even helped us with our HOA approval, which was a huge help!! We cannot thank Dylan and his team enough.

I don't frequently write reviews, but when you find a team that is quality you want to spread the word. We were so happy with Dylan and his team from start to finish. We did basically a complete overhaul of our front yard: trees removed, railings replaced, fresh concrete walkway, new retaining wall and sod. The before and after is incredible. They were on time, friendly, had great communication, fair in price and did quality work. Even the smallest details were seen to and any concerns or issues quickly resolved. I will be recommending them to everyone I know and certainly will be calling them back for future projects.

I highly recommend Genesis Outdoor Living as contractors to build a retaining wall. Our project was a 200’ long, 6’ high, retaining wall, requiring engineered plans, a soil test and a county permit (as well as HOA approval). Dylan’s experience was essential to get this done right. The result was an on-schedule wall build, that 100% met private and county inspectors’ approvals the first time.
Dylan’s relationship with the vendors and his team’s certification with the installation of Alan Block’s Classic AB collection retaining wall system produced an absolute excellent result.
Dylan is professional in communications, billing, explanations, attention to details, coordination with vendors and inspectors, and logistics sequencing.
If you need anything done in hardscaping, please give Dylan and his team at Genesis Outdoor Living your consideration.
Absolutely a First-Class professional job from start to finish.

We had Genesis do a back yard techno block paver patio with a small seating wall on one end. We also had them install a fence in our backyard as well as metal edging for all of our beds. We were extremely happy with all of their work. Their attention to detail was great. They are very neat, organized, and did a great clean up job. Dylan and crew always responded and showed up when they said they would! We are very happy we decided to use Genesis Outdoor Living and would highly recommend them.
