Tough Oaks Landscaping Ralph J. Young

We needed a "crib" in our backyard for a large shed. Ralph from Tough Oaks Landscaping explained what was needed, the timeline, budget and general scope of the project. He was on time and did an amazing job--actually exceeding our expectations. Plus, he was just really down-to-earth and a really nice guy. He explained everything in terms I could understand and was a pleasure to have around. I'll definitely call him again!

Five years old and still looks great

Three years ago we built our retirement home. Ralph Young of Tough Oak Landscaping designed and developed our yard for us. He did a beautiful job, built flower beds, installed turf for the lawn and planted many beautiful trees. He also bricked our driveway and front entrance and not a brick has moved since installed. We have received many compliments from people passing by. I would definitely hire Ralph for any future work. Ralph and his brother went above and beyond in the work done at our residence.

We have undertaken 2 extensive landscape projects with Ralph Young. On both occasions Ralph proved why it was worth waiting for him to be available to do the work. From initial planning, to ground preparation, to the laying of the last piece of stone or greenery, his attention to detail, his need to do it right was refreshing in today's hurry up and move on to the next job mentality. We always felt included at every phase of the projects, and he truly listened to our feedback. When appropriate, he would make changes to the initial plans.

An important but often overlooked consideration when hiring a contractor, is how pleasant it was to have Ralph and Paul doing work around the house. When coming home to a yard under renovation, their warmth and love of their work made you look past the dirt and see the end project. Every night the site was cleaned up, tools gathered and hazards marked off.

We would recommend Tough Oaks Landscaping for any project you may have in mind.

You won't be disappointed.
