We highly recommend Activescapes. They installed for us a paver patio with a fire pit. They helped us choose exactly what we were wanting and helped us get it even with the difficult material shortages that we are currently facing. We are very pleased with how it all turned out.

Jackson and his crew did a great job with our landscape upgrade. The retaining wall and stone fire place are the highlight along with the garden beds. The service was very good and the team was responsive to all my questions and requests. Would definitely recommend and use again in the future.

We loved working with Activescape, they really took the stress out of the whole process. They handled everything from fencing, irrigation, gravel and pavers, sod, and even a brick walkway. We were so impressed with how quickly the work was done and with the quality of the work. All of our neighbors noticed as well and were already planning on calling for future landscaping projects

I loved working with Activescapes! They were so quick to get my fence up and concrete laid, and they did such a good job at it as well. Super communicative at every step and very competitive pricing and financing options too. Will definitely be using them again if I have other landscaping needs!
