**★★★★★ — jessemstill, Sept. 2015**

> Pierce Landscapes was hired to cut down trees, trim hedges, clear out weeds, pine straw two large areas, purchase and place walking steps, level and gravel front yard to park car, cut back vines that have grown up trees to keep them from killing the trees, remove ivy from around the house. All the work was done in a single day as quoted with no problems. My wife and I truly love the yard now.

**Comment from Pierce Landscapes:**

> Thank you Jesse for the nice review.  We'll be back in October to do the plantings!

**★★★★ — lindots, Aug. 2014**

> We were happy to have professional advice to improve a section of our backyard. We now have a corner "destination" and the hardscaping gives us more options to enjoy our garden. We also appreciate the follow-up, and the commitment to replace a few plants that did not take.

**★★★★★ — johnmk777, July 2014**

> We used Pierce Landscape Designs for our patio project in our new home.  There was an old deck in place and we wanted to put in a maintenance free patio with a fire pit.  Jan worked with us to get our requirements and to help us design a layout for the new patio that would meet our budget.  Not only did the design work our spatially, but she also took into account sun/shade, wind direction to avoid smoke from the grill (an outdoor kitchen has been planned in a later phase), and other aspect we would have never considered without her input.
>
> One of our requirements in her design was to be able to seamlessly add future phases that we could tie in later if we ever wanted to add things (such as a pool, walkway to the front, etc.).  Jan created a new design for us that included future phases and worked with us to make phase 1 something we could enjoy while staying within budget.
>
> Throughout the process Jan stopped by to ensure the project was on task.  Any problems or concerns we had through the process where handled quickly and to our satisfaction.  Jan has also checked in with us since the project's completion to make sure we are still happy with our patio and we are...very much so.  We have had numerous compliments from friends, family and neighbors.
>
> You can see the end result in the pictures.  Wow, it turned out great!  Thanks again Jan!
