WIlliam with Green Ease landscape did an amazing job in my backyard. They made a nice pathway to my gate with amazing stone work.

We are so happy with our backyard and landscaping renovations done by Green Ease! We worked with Green Ease in December 2022 and from the beginning, William was patient, honest, and upfront as we figured out what we wanted in our outdoor space. Once we settled on a plan, William guided us on every choice along the way and made it super easy. He was also in communication with us once his team started. His work team was so organized, efficient, and also very thoughtful as adjustments came up along the way. They were timely and finished the job on schedule despite working in freezing temperatures. Even after the job was finished, William has reached out to make all is what we wanted. We definitely recommend Green Ease!

William and his Team were extremely helpful and professional. They helped us modernize our front yard and really made our house remarkable.

Needed a landscaper to help stabilize and beautify the area around my rental homes concrete slab. I was considering doing whole yard irrigation but William was very upfront and honest about what he thought the best value for my money was and helped me find the right solution. He and Chris have done great work, great attitudes, always responsive, and very flexible on the timeline. Definitely give them a chance for whatever landscaping work you need done.

We went from all dead grass to fully xeriscape with drought resistant plants; a complete transformation. It has been an incredible experience working with William at Green Ease. He's super responsive and addressed my concerns throughout the duration of the project. I'm very design driven so he allowed me to do my own drawings/concepts and was a fantastic advisor from concept to implementation to final product. As a client, they treated me like it was a partnership and at the end, we created an amazing project. I highly recommend Green Ease as William, Chris, and the whole crew were both kind and efficient!

One of the best decisions we have made in recent years was to work with Green Ease Landscape and Designs. From our first phone call with owner William until the end of our backyard project (that was completed ahead of schedule!) we were elated with their professionalism and work. Green Ease installed 700 square feet of flagstone, a 45' by 14' pergola, 100 feet of flowerbed edging, five big trees and 3 dozen plants in our backyard
I could write a novel about what I like about this company, but let me share four things::
1. Direct access and constant communication with the owner. William responded to our phones and texts typically within an hour and even called to check in with us while he as on vacation.
2. Great team of subcontractors who work seamlessly together.
3. The Green Ease team (led by Bud )showed up every day, worked hard, were open to our questions, did great work and cleaned up the project every day and after the project was completed our property spotless.
4. We hosted a block Christmas party and 23 neighbors were over. To a person they said, "Your backyard is stunning!'" When I told them the project was completed in three weeks they moaned and said, "I wish we would have used them!"
Green Ease is a great company. We love what they had done for us. I can't recommend them enough! -
We hired Green Ease Landscapes & Design to design and build a patio and additional flower beds. William was extremely helpful in the design process and walks you through each process so you know exactly what you are getting. He told us the advantages and disadvantages of the stones and doesn't just show up with whatever stone is the cheapest. He did the same with plants, we picked every plant and he let us know what works with shade, sun, etc. His crew works hard and works fast, if they tell you they will be there you can expect them on time. He had his crew out on Christmas Eve finishing our patio that is how dedicated he and his crew are. I highly recommend them.

We finally got around to replacing the landscaping that the winter storms destroyed. We started with half of our back flower beds bare and only stumps left and William and his Green Ease team made a 180 degree difference. After putting in a request for a quote, William met with me in person and we discussed what we were looking for in terms of design and function. I was given a quote right away and we proceeded. We went with William to pick out our hardscapes as well as plants and this is where having an expert on your side was beneficial. William was able to explain design needs for our backyard (drainage) and which plants would be best for our desires. It took the crew about three days from start to finish to complete the job and the crew was very diligent and respectful of our property. I will be using Green Ease again.

Really good experience from start to finish. They were honest, easy to work with, and kept great communication the whole way through. Very respectful and professional, and you can tell they take pride in what they do. I’m really happy with the service overall.
-
William, Chris, Thomas, and the team did great work on my lawn! I got new sod, 3 trees, star jasmine, and irrigation for everything with a smart controller. I received a clear quote, was able to pick every plant out from landscape supply stores, and they completed the project on schedule and with attention to detail. I'm excited to have a yard I feel proud of!

Really appreciated the service provided from day 1 consultation through the completion of the project. William is very honest and respectful when discussing product quality, long term perspective of a project, providing various options based on wants and pricing. Once we agreed to project design, product choices and dates, the crew got to work and they were absolutely great. Crew was respectful of property, efficient work powering through the day without impacting quality of work and left the space clean after everything was said and done. William and crew have a lot of expertise in their field, I respected their input along the way, enough so I’ve started recommending them to people I know looking to upgrade around their homes. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a solid and honest team to work with.

Fantastic experience with William and Green Ease. True professionals at a fair price. Will use for all future projects and will highly recommend to any friends looking for landscape design / renovation

I was extremely impressed with Green Ease. William was very easy to work with. He gave us a fair quote and used his experience to help us create the perfect space. He guided us through the process including meeting us to pick out the rock and stones. Bud led the crew and checked in with us from time to time to make sure what they were doing matched what we had in mind. The entire crew was professional and worked as a team. When they were done there was a walk-through to make sure everything was the way we wanted it. There were a couple of minor adjustments and they were right on top of it. The end result far exceeded my expectations.

Green Ease was fabulous. The company listened to what I wanted and gave me suggestions to accomplish that. They were so friendly and such hard workers. Thank you Green Ease for a great experience with my landscaping.👍👍👍👍👍

I reached out to 4 different companies/landscapers in order to fix/upgrade my entire front and backyard after purchasing my dream home. The quote they gave me was among the cheapest of the group and William seemed much more knowledgeable than all the other companies as well. They set everything up exactly as discussed and his team were fantastic, very clear, flexible, transparent on cost (no upselling). To top it off, William and Thomas are extremely kind, texted often and made sure to come back multiple times to address all my questions and help make sure I knew how the sprinkler and lighting system was programed.
Overall pleasantly surprised and better than I expected. They took care of everything and worked very efficiently but carefully. I am sure they will take good care of you regardless of your needs!
And great clean up too!
I highly recommend them. -
Awesome team to work with! Professional, communicative, and detail oriented. They helped me turn my idea for my yard into a set of designs/plans, and brought it to life exactly as I’d envisioned. So nice to work with a team that’s dedicated to the best customer experience possible. Thank you!!!

It was just brought to my attention that my google review no longer exists, so I'm posting again with an update.
We hired Green Ease to do our landscaping project at a little over $17k. Worst. Decision. Of. The. Century.
Cracks in the flagstone, mortar, there is weed barrier fabric missing and invasive plants that were to be removed are growing back. Incorrect size of rock was put down around the walkway but Will says his "notes" say otherwise; therefore I'm wrong and he's right. Mortar has washed away around some of the flagstones creating tripping hazards. Areas of sod died due to lack of coordinating with irrigation plan.
One thing I'm relieved of is that we didn't commit to Green Ease for the second phase of our project which was having a pergola built and it just so happens that it is being installed as I type this. What a difference in professionalism with the owner and crew of this business and it is looking incredible. It will be nice to be able to leave a positive review after this one.
Needless to say, I'll never recommend Green Ease.
*Update*
Less than a year after the stellar installation by Green Ease, this is just a little peek into what we have now. We've already hired another contractor to demo the entire patio and walkway to redo it professionally. As you can see, it looks like a kindergarten class came in to do this project. Wanna come and take a look at this mess if you're considering hiring them? Come on over. This atrocity will be here for another two weeks.
And just to add - the irrigation company he uses is his own brother. We've had to do $1500 in repairs to that mess so far. So, he's just as incompetent as his brother. If you have any more questions about our experience, feel free to message me. -
Jesse with Green Ease did a fabulous job on my front yard! Her design and ideas were perfect for what we wanted. She kept in touch with us the entire way. Their workers were professional and did a great job! Highly recommend!

William did an excellent job on my back patio project. I had a very high-level idea of what I wanted, but he developed the details and what he built me exceeded my expectations. He expanded my patio with flagstone and he built a beautiful pergola to extend the shade. Now we have so much more room, and it further enhances my backyard.
He communicated with me regularly from the time that we signed the contract, and through the work, which was completed on time and very quickly. He was very responsive with all communications, and he ensured that I was fully satisfied with the final product. -
When I look back at what made our family choose Green Ease Landscapes & Design, three things stood out: design expertise, clear and timely communication, and experience to back a vision for what our home could be. That vision has been further realized with the help of Green Ease. The following is a pretty detailed review of our positive experience with Green Ease, owner William P, and his crew. In short: You’re going to get a solid service with them, so feel confident trusting them for your landscaping needs.
Our initial conversations began after I found Green Ease online and reviewed their mix of hardscaping, landscaping, and xeriscaping pictures and services. We were interested in xeriscaping from a water conservation prospective, and because we knew that the amount of shading in our lot just wouldn’t make growing grass sustainable. We also knew that no matter what aesthetic we went with, it was critical to divert water in a way that lessened the chance of further foundation damage and swamp-like conditions in our yard. Those were our priorities, and everything else would be nice-to-haves.
Green Ease was far away from us and their typical service area, but we took a chance and gave them a call. Owner William P. agreed to meet with us. He surveyed the property and made several recommendations; the core of which involved creating a retaining wall in the front of the home, installing drainage in the back yard, and utilizing a combination of xeriscaping and turf to uplift the overall look of the home. He took the time to ask my parents what they would like and how they would use the space, and then suggested we consider expanding the patio a bit so that there would be more room in the backyard to sit and enjoy the outdoors. After taking a few measurements, he provided a rough estimate of his work right then and there.
Once we agreed to move forward, William came out and we discussed the scope of work in a second detailed walk-through, and reviewed expectations and timelines. When work was set to begin, we visited with him to pick out hardscaping materials, and a selection of plants that would fit into our xeriscaped design. William made recommendations; many of which we went with, but we also felt very comfortable choosing another option if we would’ve had a different design element we wanted to achieve.
When we met the crew, we knew we were in good hands. Every one of the crew members treated my folks with a great deal of respect. We hope that they left feeling proud of the work they did, because they did a damn good job. We allowed for a good deal of crew-based decision-making simply because of our busy schedule, and we were happy with all of the decisions they made. I especially want to shout out the fact that there were small but meaningful accommodations made in the design that made it safer and easier for my folks, who are up in their years, to navigate. I’m not sure that level of detail and consideration would’ve happened with another crew or another company.
In the end, what we discussed during our first consult with Green Ease was ultimately what we received as a final product. There were no major surprises that you sometimes get from vision to execution. The front yard and its retaining wall and xeriscaped stone and plants are amazing, the back yard’s turf and flagstone patio are beautiful, and the garden area that allows for native plants to flourish are all so visually appealing.
We’re incredibly grateful to William and the entire crew for the superb work they completed on our home. We realize this project put Green Ease and its crew out of their way more than usual, but we’re hoping that the many neighbors who have walked by and asked us who we chose to do the work we did will allow for this small business to flourish and expand.
We chose Green Ease because we felt William would help realize our vision in a manner that was detail-oriented. That was exactly what we got. Well done, Green Ease. Our hats off to you all. Seriously, thank you. We recommend you and your team wholeheartedly. -
Had them renovate my front and back yard. They were very knowledgeable and receptive to any feedback i had and helped me through the process of what materials and plants I would like for my yard. I would highly recommend them for any landscaping job you may have. If I need anything other landscaping, this is the team I will call!
