Report
Harold and Laura landscaped my front yard. They worked with me to develop a plan and executed it within the agreed upon price. Very professional. Work included concrete flat-work, pavers, stucco pillars, courtyard area, sprinklers, lighting, and water conservation landscaping. Harold is very meticulous and takes great pride in his work. Highly recommend this family-owned company.

Report
Harold Clements walked the project with me and described the corrections needed to achieve what I wanted in my back yard.. I received a prompt estimate that was very reasonable by email. Upon contract agreement, he set a date for installation. He arrived on time and prepared for the job. He completed the job within three days and the irrigation corrections have produced a beautifully green back yard. I have referred him to friends and they have been equally satisfied with his work. I highly recommend Clements Landscape and Pool Construction.
