John and his team do a stellar job, stands behind their work and are reliable. Love the work he has done for us at both of our homes.

Working with Totalscape, LLC owner John Martin has been a truly rewarding experience! John was recommended to us and within 1 day of contacting, our call was returned and an appointment made within the week to assess our project. This was a first "hooray" moment after nearly 2 years of trying to get landscapers to revisit, repair, and add on to our front scape! John's recommendations were not only attractive but mindful of our robust rural deer population. His crew began and completed work in less than 2 full days. The front scape was labor intensive due to the amount of stone bordering - completely HAND PICKED & PLACED, also a beautiful rainbow-hued stone walkway accent in addition to removal, replacement, addition of plantings and extensive mulching. Outcome so stunning we added more work to beautify the back scape! EXTREME PRAISES for John's crew members too - some of the hardest working men on the planet! O.k. I could go on here but would want you to work with Totalscape for a fabulous, stress-free experience and a beautiful, fairly priced outcome!!!

Total Scape completely transformed our yard and brought it back to life! We had a vision for how we wanted everything to look, and they were incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and willing to help us achieve it. This was an enormous amount of work, and not once did they complain or cut corners. They showed up ready to work every day, were quiet, efficient, and paid attention to every detail. Their professionalism and work ethic were truly impressive. We are beyond happy with the results and can’t recommend Total Scape enough. If you’re looking for a team that genuinely cares about their work and their customers, these are the people to call. Absolutely awesome from start to finish!
