Reviews of local pros in Wakefield, Rhode Island

Superb design and service are Grandscapes' hallmarks. A complex driveway design involving hundreds of hours of careful Belgian block placement and mortaring was executed flawlessly, and on time and within budget. Would happily recommend their services to anyone.

Peter Grandin runs a great company. Design, maintenance, you name it.
He has done alot of work at our home, and the past 3 years has been helping me with some designing of another project in which I am involved. The people who work for him are polite, professional and happy to please.

My husband and I have been very satisfied clients of Peter Grandin and Grandscapes since April of 2000 - 18 years of steady additions and improvements to our lot, building on previous installations year by year in both landscape and hardscape features.

Their crews do our basic lawn maintenance every summer, and they have, over the years, planted (I think I've lost count how many!) trees for us along our fence lines, including screening evergreens and specimen trees both evergreen and deciduous. In addition they have put in over a 2 dozen smaller shrubs and bushy plants including rhodys, azaleas, viburnums, forsythia, and many whose names I no longer remember. When we had some major remodeling done about 10 years ago, they installed an underground drainage system on our sloping lot to carry rainwater away from the house and distribute it along an underground route, as well as a a privet hedge along our street front that is admired throughout our small town. When we meet new folks and are telling them which is our house it is common for them to say back to us, "Oh, you're the ones with that beautiful privet hedge!"

In addition, Grandscapes has supplied bluestone for our fireplace hearth and mantel, a small patio which they installed below a boulder wall (also their installation) bordering a sloping bed and rock garden, and some recent changes to our back deck to add stone footings for a chimenea and a large trellised climbing vine. They concealed our new septic system behind a lovely wall of shrubbery above a boulder retaining wall, and most recently installed a driveway of interlocking, porous pavers which is both beautiful and functional.

We have been clients of Pete Grandin's across many years in which both his business and his own knowledge and crew of skilled workers have grown steadily. Their work is impeccable, beautiful, and if not perfect the first time around (a rarity), Pete will always make it right. We recommend them with enthusiasm to anyone seeking well-planned and well-executed lanscaping, hardscaping, and maintenance!

Peter and his crew did an amazing job on the landscape design, for or newly built beach home in Matunuk, Peter listened carefully to all our design ideas, worked with us on a plan encorporating his vision and ours, culminating in a spectacular outcome, we have gotten numerous compliments on the landscaping, people drive buy slowly on a daily basis pointing and comment if we are outside on how beautiful and natural the design looks. They installed our fence, circular shell drive, 30 ft. Stone wall, an outdoor shower, a “wall” of evergreens, river rock and the most gorgeous array of planting’s designed and layed out by Peters himself. The Grandscape crew could not have been nicer or more professional during the 2 months that it took to complete our extensive project! We highily recommend Granscapes for any of your landscaping needs.

Overall, ok services and the nursery is a great place to get new plants, bushes, and trees. The yard landscaping service was good they came in with heavy machinery and removed all the top soil, graded, added new top soil and added grass seed. Overall would recommend for any landscaping needed.
The pruning and spring cleaning services, however, was over priced for the amount of work completed. They basically spend 8 hours pruning 3 bushes and that's it. For the price, it left me a bit disappointed in the amount of work completed and I will not be inquiring for this service from them again.

Grandscapes has taken care of property in Wakefield for over five years with weekly maintenance, and seasonal fertilizing and pruning. The work is always done promptly and to my satisfaction. The place looks great. I highly recommend this company for property management services.

I have worked with Peter Grandin and Grandscapes for the past 15 years. The projects they have done for me have ranged from simple to quite complex and they have all have been done well. Peter is professional and has the unique quality of listening to what his clients want as well as offering suggestions so that the end result is better than you imagined. They are a great company which I know I can count on no matter when or what I need.

Working with Peter Grandin has been a great experience. We planned what were were going to do, he always arrived on time and brought beautiful plant material. His workers were excellent and the job was finished right on schedule. I would recommend him highly.

If you are looking for quality craftsmanship that you don’t have to replace several year later, look no further!
I had a new front walk and steps designed and installed recently. All aspects of the project from start to finish was professionally handled. The quality of craftsmanship was excellent as well as their punctuality, job cleanup and follow up.
I highly recommend Grandscapes for their high quality sales, management and craftsmanship.

I held off on the big landscaping projects here because I just didn't feel I knew what would look good. I met Peter Grandin and immediately felt I could trust him to tell me what would work best - without feeling like he was overselling to me. Investment was well worth it, and I continue to receive compliments on the changes!

Recently I had Grandscapes install a gravel driveway at our home in Warren. I was having a hard time finding someone who would do the job the way I wanted. About this time my neighbor was having some landscaping done around here house. I asked her what she thought of the company. She said they were great. I contacted them (Grandscapes), they came out gave me an estimate that was very reasonable and within a couple of weeks they finished the driveway. They do great work, they are fast, professional, and friendly. If you are looking for an excellent landscaper,I would gladly recommend them.

Peter and his team are knowledgeable and professional.
The initial appointment was kept on time and the quotation arrived as promised.

Materials and workmanship were as agreed or better and the warranty is more than reasonable.
These days, it is very difficult to complete a project on time and within budget. The folks at Grandscapes checked all the boxes and we would highly recommend them.

We own and operate a small business in Charlestown. We used GrandScapes this season to help w/ many of our landscaping needs. Andy was very helpful and detailed. He understood our need to have the landscaping and lawncare done at specific times of the week/day to avoid customers being on site. They staff were all very professional and helpful. The portal for billing was also wonderful when you are busy working and just need a quick and efficient way to pay your invoice. GrandScapes is wonderful and I highly recommend them.

I just visited Grandin Farms on Tuckertown Rd. It's amazing what they're done with the Nursery. I made several purchases and discussed some design Build work with Peter. It's a great experience.

I hired Grandscapes to build my back terrace and front walkway. The multi-layer terrace / patio is an oasis. It completely changed my backyard. The new front walkway is the talk of the neighborhood. The paver with brick inlay design is beautiful. The entire process was seamless. Pete Grandin is clearly a leader in the landscaping field. His knowledge and approach are exceptional. Grandscapes has greatly increased the value of my home.

I used Grandscapes to help me design an upgrade the landscaping in my front and back yard. They did a wonderful job and all the workers were great to interact with and make adjustments on the fly. The project couldn’t have gone better and the result beautiful. I would recommend using this company

Grandscapes has been a pleasure to work with as they’ve transformed my yard from an overgrown, out of control brush situation into a landscaped yard with multiple low maintenance gardens. All of the staff and team are so helpful and they truly care about the work they do. I highly recommend!

We live in Westerly and hired Grandscapes to demo a secondary drive, build stonewalls, design garden beds and install granite steps- quite a large project! They exceeded all my expectations. From initial estimate and design expertise , to masonry to excavation and to final cleanup they were extremely professional and the attention to detail was second to none. Aaron, Davis, Mack ,Liz, Peter Grandin ( I know I’m forgetting so many others..) were absolutely wonderful. We look forward to having them help us transform our yard with future projects.

Grandscapes has done several projects for us over the past three years - I’ve been on a mission to eliminate impermeable surfaces around the property & they have done an excellent job also with storm water/ rainwater down spurt Management. Their work & craftsmanship is very high quality. I really love the fact that their crew on site always takes spacial care of the existing plants they have to work around. The masonry work is excellent with great attention to detail.

I’ve been working with Grandscapes for years. They did our beautiful front walkway and our impressive 3 tiered terrace out back. They do incredible work and were so caring of our property. I recently visited their nursery and it was beautiful . The staff were so welcoming and helpful. I came away with a beautiful wreath for my front door. Many neighbors have commented on how beautiful it is and asked where I got it. I was happy to say I got it from Grandin Farms nursery . Please stop by and check them out. You won’t be disappointed .

We are so thrilled with our new stone retaining wall. Your crew was wonderful. Everything was smooth and professional and the result is even better than we imagined. Will definitely be calling you again in the future. Thank you so much.

We couldn't be happier with the incredible transformation of our front yard, all thanks to GrandScapes! For years, we were stuck, staring at a drab front of the house and having no idea how to create some curb appeal. Then GrandScapes came in and completely changed everything.

From the very first consultation, they were fantastic. Peter listened to our frustrations and immediately understood the style of our home. What really impressed us was his ability to quickly come up with a design plan that not only suited our house perfectly but also incorporated materials we absolutely love.

The installation of our new front walkway and garden beds was seamless. Their team was professional, efficient, and clearly took pride in their work. The result is truly stunning – it has completely transformed the front of our house and added tons of curb appeal.

We highly recommend GrandScapes and only wish we had hired them sooner!
