"Pat and Midwest Landscaping did a great job on my yard. The plants had literally taken over and we had some poison ivy growing between our fence and the neighbor’s. In one morning they trimmed things that had gotten too big, moved plants to space them out better, weeded and got rid of the poison ivy problem. Really the best part was that they used all of our own plants, so we didn’t have to buy anything new. Whenever we need more help with the landscaping, we will be calling Pat."

"They did a marvelous job cleaning up our neglected yard and got rid of that little black fence that's been driving me crazy since we purchased the property. The workers were prompt and very polite. If we were staying in the area we would be using this service for regular yard care."

"Coast to Coast did an excellent job on tuck pointing the office portion of our office building. The building is approx. 30 years old. The office section of our building (approx. 7K sq. ft.) had water damage to the inside walls due to the bricks and mortar etc. on the outside of the building deteriorating due to rain and snow over the years. Romen came out to our office and spent a lot of time showing us what the problems were and recommending how he would make the repairs. After getting other estimates from other companies, we decided to use Coast to Coast. Work that was done on all three sides of our office building: removed all loose and cracked mortar joints/bricks without damaging the edges of the abutting masonry. Used commercial vacuums during the grinding operation so very little dust/debris was in the air. After cleaning and flushing with water and compressed air, any joints which were cut out were than filled with a special tuck pointing mortar. They grinded out the rust between the rusting I-Beams at the front of our building and sealed them to prevent further rusting. Waterproofed all brick and mortar work to prevent future water from coming inside. To be honest, there was even more work that was done ~ all by hand. This project took about a week. It's now been almost a year, and we have had no problems with water seeping in to the building. The work on the outside of the building (mortar/bricks etc.) matches the original construction, (which is nice)."

"Dave installed a brick pathway from my driveway, around the side of the house and into the back yard around an existing concrete patio. It looks beautiful!. His workers did a great job, they were prompt and cleaned up each day. <br />"

"For over a decade, we had been wanting to get rid of the small remaining grass sod in our front yard and replace it with mostly native plants. In 2020, we hired Poul’s Landscaping to design the new front yard and Rick did the design work. Rick totally listened to what we wanted and when he came back with his plan a week later, it was perfect! We removed almost everything that was planted in the front yard and started over. We mentioned and Rick supported removing the old, narrow, straight sidewalk and replacing it with a beautiful, curved side walk; the existing stoop was covered in stone and a second step incorporated. This alone, totally transformed the street view of our house! We absolutely love the upgraded look of the front yard and the stone work matches the color of our brick siding perfectly. They also installed a circle of stone under the bird feeder (on a Shepard’s hook), which not only looks nice, but helps the birds and squirrels find and eat all the seed, greatly reducing the little sprouts that crop up! In addition, two small stone walls and stone steps were incorporated between our yard and our neighbor’s yard (this was a joint project, with 90% of the work in our yard). The walls gave the yard a finished look. The drainage was improved, with re-grading. Rick designed the flower beds to provide color the entire year, from several types of phlox and geraniums and bushes and trees in the early spring and other flowers into the fall. The bushes, trees, geraniums and two of the phlox had already bloomed when they installed the gardens in mid-July, but the Nicky phlox, sunflowers, cone flowers and Black-eyed Susans bloomed continuously from early August and are still flowering in late September! I look out my kitchen window and see all the flowers and it is just wonderful!! Virtually everything in the yard is either native or a native cultivated variety. Natives include Little bluestem, New Jersey Tea, prairie smoke, honeysuckle bush, black chokeberry bush and tall garden phlox. Not only did Rick design for a succession of flowers throughout the year, he also designed for fall color and winter interest. I can’t wait to see the yard next spring!! The two men who worked every day for 8 days were amazing! I could not believe how hard they worked and they were absolute perfectionists. The stone work was amazing. They wore masks all day and answered all our questions. Poul’s has my very strong endorsement for their fantastic design work, quality physical work and fast response to questions. I recommend them without reservation!"

"The job went great. This is the second time I have used Pave Stone. Both jobs went perfect. This time around I needed them to raise the soil level and add new sod in the front and backyard. I also had them put in a patio in the backyard. Sergio gave me many options for the stone. The one he recommended looks great. I couldn't be happier. His team was professional and attentive. The job was not too big, so they finished in 2 days."

"I would call Star Tuckpointing for any tuckpointing needs in a hot minute. I’ve already extolled them to neighbors and friends. When fielding bids for the work, Star Tuckpointing proved to have the widest knowledge base and experience. They were clear on what work was needed now and what could wait. They explained the process in detail and answered my questions thoroughly. The guys who did the actual work were prompt and cleaned up each day. The work to replace the lintels required the removal and replacement of fieldstone. I was impressed with their abilities—an artist’s touch, really. It looks fantastic. They were understanding and patient as I decided on the color of the mortar and when I was unsure, provided more options. The billing process was professional and all made very clear."
