I am in love with my backyard makeover! George helped me visualize a makeover and Aaron put it all in place! I went from weeds and mud and lost walkways to sod and mulched garden areas and was able to move and reuse my many stepping stones. I now have a little oasis to enjoy. Great company to work with and such a nice family. Highly recommended!

My wife and I could not be more happy with the services from C and L Landscaping. We had pavers put in and our front flower beds re-worked. From the personal responses, to the meticulously laid out plan for our HOA, to the impressive follow through but Leslie, George, and the office staff … we would highly recommend C and L for your landscape services.

We hired C&L Landscape to re-sod our front and back yard. The proposal was very detailed. George and Tom were very responsive. They don't just install the sod, they make sure it roots before they turn it over. I was very impressed with their attention to detail and would highly recommend them.

We needed to prepare our house to sell, but our front and back yards were pretty much a jungle of 15 years' worth of nearly unchecked growth.
