I would give 10 stars if I could! Mike is extremely professional, punctual, friendly, and has a great eye for beautiful landscapes! I contacted him for a quote, he responded quickly, came out and looked at my bare yard and I gave him a general idea of what I wanted. The following week, he took my ugly front yard and transformed it in to a beautiful masterpiece!! I cannot be more happy, and cant wait for him to create a beautiful oasis in my backyard! Want perfection? Call Mike!!

Had Mike come over to give me a quote on a job. Quote was reasonable and we agreed to start work. Gave him a substantial deposit and it has been months since I heard from him. Never started !!! Left plenty of messages and will not return any of my calls or emails.

Star Landscaping reworked our aging and overgrown front yard yesterday and did an excellent job. We requested a low maintenance layout and Mike was very helpful to us in suggesting and selecting healthy plants and a design that would be appropriate to meet our needs. He responded promptly to my inquiry and the work was scheduled and completed quickly. His hard-working crew was very experienced and enjoyable to work with on this project. I highly recommend this business to you- for projects large or small!
