I cannot recommend Prime Patio & Landscaping highly enough.
Several years ago, a top-notch pool designer recommended Matt to me and said, quite simply, that nobody creates gorgeous, natural-looking landscapes the way he does. That turned out to be absolutely true.
At the time, I was planning a major redesign of the landscaping around my pool and interviewed three different highly rated landscaping companies. None of them came close to Matt's level of knowledge or vision. Once I saw photos of his work, the decision was easy.
My goal was to create something that looked like it had always belonged there—a landscape that blended naturally into my wooded backyard while using plants that were native to the region and would thrive without excessive water once established. Matt completely understood the vision and absolutely delivered.
The transformation was incredible. I fell in love with my backyard. In fact, I sold that house a few years later, and the thing I miss most about it is the backyard Matt created.
When I started looking for a new home, the backyard became such an important factor that before making an offer on the house I eventually purchased, I asked Matt to come take a look. The yard was much smaller than my previous property, which had been on acreage. I asked him whether he could create the same feeling of privacy, beauty, and connection to nature in a much more limited space.
He told me he could.
Once again, he exceeded every expectation.
Today, the main living areas of my home overlook a stunning landscape complete with a beautiful rock waterfall, lush greenery, and thoughtfully designed plantings that, in only two years, have completely screened out an unattractive fence line. Instead of looking at a fence, I look out onto what feels like my own private woodland garden.
Without fail, the first thing visitors comment on when they come to my home is the backyard. People are genuinely amazed by it.
Now, I'll be honest—Prime is not the cheapest option. You can probably find someone willing to do the work for less.
What you won't find is someone better.
Matt is a true artist. His designs are beautiful, his workmanship is first-class, and he stands behind what he creates. In my experience, the value is exceptional because the quality is exceptional.
I also use Prime for quarterly landscape maintenance and upkeep on my waterfall. The entire team is knowledgeable, professional, and highly capable. Over the years, I've seen remarkably little turnover among his staff, which says a great deal about both the company and the people who work there.
If you're looking for the cheapest landscaper, keep shopping.
If you're looking for someone who can transform an ordinary yard into a place you'll genuinely love spending time in for years to come, call Prime Patio & Landscaping. I did—twice—and I would do it again without hesitation.
