I’ve been working on my backyard landscape for years. I hired CLE Landscaping to help transform the yard into a backyard oasis. Brian, Malick and Luis came to the rescue. As you can see from the before and after photos, the yard is 100% better. They came on time, were very pleasant, planned the layout and planted all the new shrubs that I purchased. This is a top-notch team. I’m looking forward to seeing the new flowers bloom next year. Thank you guys.
My husband and I purchased our house last year knowing the backyard needed a lot of work, and Bob's team with CLE Landscaping did an amazing job transforming it to something we can manage moving forward.
The owner, Bob, was very nice & easy to work with. He immediately came to quote the yard & talk through what I was picturing in my head. Our team for the week was Justin, Luis, and Malick -- they did a wonderful job ripping everything out & creating our new beds. We also had our entire yard re-seeded -- which hopefully will turn out great *fingers crossed*.
I would 100% recommend Bob & his crew -- we will be calling them again next summer for the next steps & plan to use them for general maintenance moving forward :)

The team that completed the work, Luis and Malik, were also exceptional! They were professional, friendly, communicative, efficient and made sure everything was exactly how I wanted and up to my standards. I thoroughly enjoyed working with them, and would recommend CLE Landscaping to anyone in the area!

I recently had a large project done by CLE Landscaping and they did an awesome job. Tree trimming, big clean out with weed removal, bushes trimmed, edging, weed control and prep for patio. The crew Brian, Mallick, and Luis were prompt, very courteous and completed the job with clean up in a timely fashion. Great communication if there were questions. The yard looks great!!
Three professionals, Luis, Justin. and Malick, arrived exactly on time. They brought all supplies and heavy equipment in three trucks. Step by step they removed the patchy, rock-filled lawn, and dug a hole for our lovely new tree. Then they spread the new soil
with grass seed, placed hay on top, and watered everything. It was completed in an hour or two. The price was fair and honest. Now we wait for the new grass to grow.
Price assessment: Great price

Excellent results from the CLE group with Justin and Malick. Completed every task discussed in proposal. Worked hard and results are beautiful. Beds are now weed free and mulched! CLE also completes weekly lawn mowing and the crew is always pleasant and efficient. Many thanks to Bob and crew at CLE.
