Todd is a great professional and Natasha from his office is a real sweetheart. Todd has been very gracious and patient as he gave me credit for my deposit for more than a year (first I had to get some work done in the house before landscaping and then COViD hit with all the issues of quarantine, losing jobs etc etc). Todd designed my front yard and his team did a wonderful job of implementing his design. I highly recommend him, he is not only a great professional but and honest and caring human being.

We have had a terrible experience with this company. Tod asked for a $1500 deposit for an estimate/plan, even though we later saw that his company's website states they offer FREE estimates. All we have gotten in return for the $1500 is a simplistic plan that looked like a computer-generated, elementary school coloring project.--Even this was weeks late, and Tod refused to leave it with us. We then asked Tod to give us a proposal (with scope of work and budget). Tod promised to deliver this proposal to us in 4 days.
After 12 days passed, we called to inquire about the scope of work proposal. Tod did not take my call and, when my husband called, he abruptly told him he'd call him back. Needless to say, Tod never returned my husband's call. Tod's office assistant promised she'd get back to me by the end of today with an update, but she did not call me or email me with any update. It looks like we were scammed by this company. Unless you have $1500 to throw in the trash, I'd be careful about doing business with this company.

This team is amazing! Their attention to detail is refreshing. You are hiring a true artist and professional with Tod Anderson and he clearly attracts and employs the same with his staff. Our project is almost done and they completed it in record timing so that the space would be done for my sons request to have a pool party for his 10th bday. Timelime was tight but they did everything they could to make it happen. Our yard is GORGEOUS and we are so happy!

When working with Anderson Landscaping and directly with Natasha, I was amazed with their professionalism and responsiveness. I had a unique paver set that needed to be matched, after sending them pictures they had the exact match ready to go the next day. I will wholeheartedly recommend them to all my friends and family. They also support their local community and neighbors and I am very happy they were the first company I called.
