Landscapers near South Glastonbury

“Needed a retaining wall replaced. Saw Dondero landscaping billboard advertisement. Called the number, Jeff came out within a couple of days, took the measurements of the project, text me the quote within a day. The crew showed up the next week. Went work on the collapsing retaining wall. The rebuild, clean up, was done on day 2. 35 ft. Plus with drainage, back fill and it looks great.
Fair price, excellent work ( the crew busted their backs and were very polite ) Great crew.
I have another project for later. Dondero is the only name on the list.
Thank you Dondero Landscapping.“

“We moved from Texas, so we were unaccustomed to living in a state with four seasons. We also moved to a home with a large property that had not been tended for many years. Our new neighbors told us that the old owners mowed their lawn twice a year, whether it needed it or not. That is not a joke. The side yard of the property was used as basically a trash heap. We found toilets and cones and drums and broken down bits of who knows what. I mean a lot of of it. The trees were overgrown and they were going to eventually do damage once they got too heavy from the snow or wind.

A friend of ours, here in Glastonbury, recommended Thompson Landscaping. I cannot say enough about how much they have done for us. They have welcomed us like family members and have taught us how to live in at least summer, fall and winter seasons with property like we have.

They have come over regularly to see how we’re doing, make suggestions about things we may not have considered, to pick up trash, to cut down trees, to take out old plants/overgrowth/vines, haul away all that trash, to cut down dying plants/shrubs/bushes, to cut back neglected plants so that they regrow, to overseed the yard, which grew beautifully, to shovel snow, to take away all of the leaves during the fall, to lay down large amounts of mulch, to provide us with firewood, to check our outdoor plumbing (drains), to mow the lawn…but the most important was the day that our wellhead broke.

The power went out for two hours, and when it came back on, we had no water. It began to snow and we tried to fix it ourselves. I called Thompson Landscaping and they came out immediately with a small tractor. Matt dug for hours and hours in the snow with a good attitude and a smile. Thompson Landscaping called all their friends and business associates and people who weren’t even working anymore to come and help us figure out how to reach our well head, repair it and then bring it above ground. *Nod to Glastonbury Water Systems and Staven’s Drilling (thank you!)* They treated us like family. They have always treated us like family, and because of that we will stay with them.

Their prices are fair. Their staff is nice and knowledgeable. They are always available to us, and I simply cannot say enough about them. If you’re looking to work with real people who care about you and your home then work with Thompson Landscape. We plan on doing lots and lots more work with Thompson as the years go by. We have big plans from the driveway, to the front patio and walkway, to build a deck in the back, to redo the backyard and planting trees/pulling out trees and who knows what else. We look forward to it. Thank you Sam, Matt and all of you at Thompson Landscape!!

I am posting a few pictures here. The junkie pictures are when we moved in and there are pictures that show progress. Some of the pictures don’t show the grass as beautifully as it came out, but maybe I’ll post those again when the spring comes.“

“Tom is a hard worker. He is also a great guy to do business with. He goes above and beyond to please his customers. Tom has been doing my dad’s landscaping and yard needs for 10+ years. Very reliable and considerate.“

“Love how great our yard looks after they come to mow for us! They really do an awesome job and make sure to clean off the driveway after they’re done too!“

“I loved working with Bob and his team. They did an amazing job with my lawn and cleaning up my garden. I plan on using them again next year when it’s time for new flowers. They picked out extremely wonderful flowers for my gardens and I am amazed at how good my property now looks!! In the future I plan on looking into their masonry work as well as I have heard they do a great job with that.“

“Blake and team did such an amazing job on my backyard, surrounded the pool with river rock, adding sprinklers, hydroseeded, literally did it all, I would highly recommend Chenail“

“Needed someone to plant trees when when the original installer nixed on the deal. Gene came out and planted the very next day. They did a great job and cleaned up nicely. Highly recommend them.“

“Scott and his daughter just removed 3 large overgrown bushes, trimmed a Japanese maple and topped off an arborvitae. I highly recommend them. Great job“

“I would use them again and highly recommend. We had them cut down trees and even install a new fence. The hardest working crew ever. Impeccable quality service and very affordable. They worked with us the whole project , excellent communication. And they have the right equipment for the right job . We have a very small yard and the equipment used got right to the trees in the back and didn’t destroy the yard . You can’t go wrong with Mike and Mani.“

“Scott and his crew always do a great job. Scott is one of those rare contractors that actually gets back to you and sends you quotes like he says he will. Working with him is very easy, and his crews always does great and quick work. I've used West Hartford Landscaping for several projects around my property and will definitely continue to do so!“

“The team at Mountain View Landscape has been amazing to work with, very transparent and honest which is very hard to come by now aday. The process leading up to my stone patio was simple, Tom was responsive, showed up when he said he would and followed up through out the whole project. William was also a pleasure dealing with, also very responsive and a great designer...William was there almost every day checking in on the crew. At one point towards the end of the project he called us out to ask how we liked a design on the firepit that the crew had done. Good thing he did! I loved it, wife didnt, so the crew ended up changing the design to what the Misses wanted very quickly. They also came back to correct 2 pavers that chipped, no questions asked when we brought it up. The crews stayed until late at night and worked very hard together.

Its been a great experiance so far, and we look forward to a couple more projects in the near future with Mountain View.

Thank you guys for all your hard work!“

“Pinewood Landscaping recently completed a stunning firepit patio for our home, and the results are nothing short of extraordinary. The craftsmanship is impeccable, reflecting true artistry and attention to detail. James, the owner, exemplified professionalism throughout the project, taking the time to ensure every aspect met our vision perfectly. If you are looking for a top-tier company that delivers exceptional patio work with skilled artisans who excel in their craft, look no further than Pinewood Landscaping. I would gladly award them 10 stars if I could. Bravo, and continue the outstanding work!“

“Christhian and his crew are amazing. I highly recommend Surmount. Beautiful, quality workmanship and his guys are professional and hardworking. They completed a big landscaping project this time along with a walkway previously. Definitely my go to!“

“Trout Brook Arborists did a great job pruning our trees. They explained what needed to be done and were friendly and professional in their work.“

“Hard working, professional, fair pricing and honest.Does great work would recommend to anyone.“

“Mac and his crew have created the most exceptional operation I’ve ever seen. There’s nothing they don’t do and the quality of their work is unparalleled. I was blown away by how quickly they executed my beautiful transformation. I’m so grateful for them and urge everyone to use them for anything from landscaping, hardscaping, design to finish, construction, drainage, and everything in between. They solved all my water problems beautifully. Out of this world. Thank you so much Mac!“

“Jara Management has been an excellent vendor to work with for our lawn care and snow removal needs. They are extremely reliable, consistently show up on time, and always get the job done efficiently. Their team is dependable and takes pride in their work, which has made a noticeable difference in maintaining our properties. I highly recommend their services.“

“Viola Landscapping did a very nice job spreading up to 4 yards of landscape stone around mt newly installed deck.“

“I've known Ray Wilk for years he is a true professional does a great job and he is very reasonable. Without a doubt I would recommend Ray the tree guy to get the job done right and safe.“

“So prompt and responsive. They saved us and our massive pile of leaves for the season! Highly recommend.“

“I bought a duplex in Oct 2025 and the previous owner built a fence out of something that resembled “chicken wire,” covering it with something to make it look nice, but it looked horrible. I was referred to M&G Landscaping, where I purchased a white vinyl fence, and they far exceeded my expectations! I had hills that were eroding and the yard is so uneven, so I didn’t know what to expect. I am in love with the results and I can’t wait for the weather to warm up, so I can enjoy sitting out there this summer. Thank you Vijay! I know I asked a million questions before moving forward. But you stayed patient and you and Pranav were very helpful in meeting my needs! Your team did an amazing job! See my before and after pictures“

“Ethan and Anchor One were fantastic start to finish. Price was comparable to other quotes received. The difference? Ethan. He was thorough and informative, patient with last minute changes even after the contract was signed, the job was completed a week ahead of schedule! Best money ever spent. (Black 5’ chain link. If you’re looking for something a little economical that doesn’t look awful- in fact disappears into the landscape- this is my suggestion.) Most fence photos didn’t come out great so I’ll leave you with a picture of the result- safe, happy, tired dogs!“

“Luna Tree Care was outstanding from start to finish. From the estimate and scheduling to the actual work, everything was handled professionally and communication was excellent. The crew showed up right on time, worked efficiently, and maintained great control of the job site throughout. They never rushed, prioritized safety, and took great care of our property while removing a large mature tree and pruning another.

It was obvious the team knew what they were doing and took pride in doing the job right. The pricing was very competitive, and they even helped coordinate splitting the cost with our neighbor, which made the whole process easy. Our kids loved watching the crew work, and it was impressive to see how smoothly they brought the tree down.

I would strongly recommend Luna Tree Care to family and friends and would gladly use them again. Top-notch crew, excellent workmanship, and a first-class administration team.“

“Edi and the team did a fantastic job on my steps and walkway. Edi had great suggestions, and the project came out so much better than I had hoped. Very reasonable price, too. Several neighbors have complimented me on how great it looks.“

“Lazer Scapes was terrific. They were reliable, careful and quick. They had a large group of hard workers. I’ll use them again for tree removal. Thank you!“
