He’s very responsive and provides great designs and can bring your ideas to fruition. Will be using PTG again!Posted on Jan WibirtTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. PTG did an awesome job!! Garrett is a pleasure to work with, courteous, honest, reliable, respectful, knowledgeable and hard working. Communication was great and he’s easy to work with. He and his crew trimmed shrubs, removed a large butterfly bush, cleaned up, edged and mulched all of my beds around the house and yard. Also, they cleaned up and regraded an unsightly area next to my shed then added new topsoil. He moved a large number of hostas from one area and replanted them next to the shed. It looks 100% better and will look so nice next spring. They cleaned up everything nicely when finished, too, which I can say not all landscapers have done in the past. He also raked and reseeded any lawn areas that were disturbed. I can’t say enough goods things about PTG and highly recommend them. I’m sure I’ll be calling Garrett again in the future.Posted on Damon ArtisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very prompt and professional. Will use services again.Posted on Jose BullsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. PTG Landscape and Hardscape is a fantastic company to contract for your outdoor needs. Garrett and his team helped me create a beautiful play area with a retaining wall in my backyard. I had an idea of how I wanted a hill to be removed and replaced with the play area and Garrett listened to my idea, offered great suggestions along the way, and matched my idea with the final product flawlessly. He's very knowledgeable, quick to respond, and flexible. I plan to use PTG to replace my fence and patio area next year and I know that I'll have nothing to worry about. Here are some before, during, and after photos. We placed mulch into the space and hired Garrett for a secondary project to place a border around the play area, but I don't have a final photo of all of it wrapped up. It was done to perfection!Posted on Purnell GrayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are very happy with the job that Garrett and his team did with our patio and deck in Aberdeen Maryland. He answered every question that we had. He was very professional, knowledgeable, detailed and on site for the entire project. I could tell he really takes pride in the work that he does. I would highly recommend Garrett to anyone who is interested in having their outdoor project done.Posted on Hunter CoppellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Garrett and his crew did an awesome job on my paver patio in Essex MD! He was timely, he responded quickly and he was on time for starting the project and completion of the project. I have nothing but great things to say about him and his team, his work speaks for itself.Posted on everette blackTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I contacted PTG to complete both Hardscaping and Landscaping patio work on my homes in Abingdon MD. Garrett was honest during his no cost initial assessment and scope of work required. He thoroughly explained and was able to demonstrate why my patio problem had occurred and a detailed resolution, with required materials and time. The estimate provided was exactly what he explained during the assessment. The quoted price was more than fair it was excellent. The knowledge and workmanship were outstanding and all phases of work was meticulous and precise. They maintained a safe and clean work environment respecting my property it as if it was their own. I was so impressed I contracted them to redo the flower bed and remove scrubs from my rental property which looks awesome. Again, the service and price were excellent. I have truly found a company and owner I can depend on and trust and highly recommend PTG (Garrett) for any Hardscaping or Landscaping jobs one may require.Posted on Megan RoeslerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
