New Eco Landscapes is the absolute best! From the first walk-through, to the design process, to setting a start date for construction, to the pride they take in the smallest of details, and the professionalism they show for your project and your home while doing the project, to the constant communication about new ideas and adjustments, to being absolutely certain that you are satisfied at the end, and being 100% transparent about costs and delivering at those estimated costs - everyone on their staff has been an absolute joy to work with. They took a construction site (see pics) and turned it into a garden oasis (see more pics) that we will enjoy for years and years. Thanks New Eco we couldn't be happier and out of 10 stars we would give them 11! **★★★★★ — Ashlie Broderic, June 2019** > I love working with New Eco to source plants for my design projects! Adding plants to interiors can be challenging, but New Eco takes the time to make sure I select the right plant for each space. They are responsive, helpful, and always have the answer to my questions. I highly recommend them! **★★★★★ — Pam H, Nov. 2017** > Our experience with New Eco was outstanding. They were awesome every step of the way. From our initial meeting, through design phases, construction, planting and full execution. They were extremely flexible and cooperative during the entire process. They were very fair about pricing and accommodating changes in scope. We were moving into a new townhouse in BK - they designed a full backyard with pavers, gardens and a built-in grill, they planned and planted our front porch, and created an outdoor shower and plantings on an upstairs deck. Cannot recommend them enough. **★★★★★ — Joshua Golub, July 2017** > Working with New Eco was a pleasure. They kept me well informed of when they would get the ordered plants in and when they could come in to install. The installation was quick and painless and the final product is truly beautiful. Our backyard is now an urban oasis - thanks to New Eco. **★★★★★ — Kai Bond, Jan. 2017** > They are the BEST! We had a big project (decking, fencing, pergola, planting of flowers, trees, and irrigation). The work was flawless. Top quality woodwork, amazing selection of plants, and we never have to lift a finger to keep it looking good. We have New Eco come regularly to help with seasonal arrangements and maintenance as well (do not have a green thumb). I would highly recommend this team - the design and execution were above and beyond what we expected. And the team is great - friendly and efficient. **★★★★★ — Jenny Isikoff, Jan. 2017** > From beginning to end, New Eco provided excellent, professional service. The completed project exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend New Eco to others. **★★★★★ — djrashiiid, June 2016** > We hired New Eco to renovate our small backyard in Brooklyn. At first we were nervous about the project because we are new homeowners and had not undertaken any kind of renovation. We wanted to replace the fence in our yard, replace the flooring, and add an outdoor kitchen with built-in cabinets and seating. > > We contacted New Eco, and arranged for Jesse to come out for a complimentary visit. He explained what New Eco could do, and gave us a good sense of the price -- this was helpful, since we had no idea how much the project would cost. We decided to move forward, and Sean came up with a great design based on our desires. We were impressed with all the different renderings, from different angles. Sean also prepared an itemized budget, which was great because we could see the exact prices for all the different finishes, materials, and furniture. > > The work started on time, progressed smoothly, and finished on time. New Eco has its own workers so we didn't have to deal with any subcontractors. During the process, we made small requests and changes to the plan, and New Eco did a great job accommodating us. We are particularly pleased with how the kitchen turned out -- we have both a propane grill and a smoker. New Eco was able to design a custom table to fit them both, which makes it a pleasure to cook in the yard. > > Thanks to New Eco, we are enjoying our first spring in our new yard. I would wholeheartedly recommend New Eco to anyone. **Comment from New Eco Landscapes:** > Thank you so much for the kind words! We loved how the project came out and it was a pleasure working with you. We are happy you are loving the space! **★★★★★ — Nell, Oct. 2015** > I contacted New Eco Landscapes after seeing their projects on Houzz. We have a small (urban) front garden that needed help. New Eco Landscapes did a superb job from start to finish. At the initial appointment, partner Jesse Terzi suggested possible plantings while keeping our budget in mind. The friendly, professional planting team arrived as scheduled and did a great job. We now have a garden that continues to delight us and our neighbors. **★★★★★ — Ecotone, May 2015** > As another Pro in this business and territory, I can attest to the existence of a great deal of competition in the Landscape Design & Build arena. New Eco is as solid as they come! I have worked with Sean, (one of their designers) in many capacities over the years and he is always a pleasure to work with. I am always open to collaboration with New Eco, and when I have projects that are too large for my capacity, I refer my clients to them. **★★★★★ — Anthony Crisafulli Photography, April 2015** > The team at New Eco really knows how to create a comfortable, well-designed oasis in the urban jungle. From their sense of space and planting selection to the custom-built planters and furniture they design, New Eco has a lot to offer. It is a pleasure to collaborate with Sean and his staff - they're knowledgable, friendly and professional above all. I would definitely recommend working with them on your next project. **★★★★★ — Anna V, Feb. 2015** > New Eco surpassed our expectations on every front! > > They transformed our Brooklyn back yard from an overgrown "jungle" to an oasis that is now the best part of our home. Shawn Lewis, our designer was excellent to work with. He brought a perfect blend of creativity, fun and professionalism to the project. During the design phase, the materials he provided to really helped us to visualize the potential of the space and make smart decisions that were in line with our budget and tastes. Shawn & team were extremely patient with our many revisions and proposed smart solutions to our every need. They converted a retaining wall on the brink of collapse into a beautiful stone wall. Their skilled carpenters built us a beautiful custom table for our grill. They helped in furniture selection, irrigation, plant sourcing. These guys really do it all and I can't imagine a better experience. > > During the construction phase, Shawn's team was beyond professional. They made incredibly swift progress on the project. Over the course of about 8 weeks we watched an entire transformation of our yard take place. As our row house does not have alley access to get to the back yard, the team had to carry all hardscape, fencing and other materials through our basement by hand! They were tidy, well supervised and very skilled. Shawn oversees his team and checks in on regular intervals, stopping by your home personally and keeping tabs on all work. > > > New Eco is an amazing choice for anyone interested in quick and beautiful results with low stress. From project planning and management, design, to implementation, price, service, materials, maintenance, they truly take care of you end to end. **★★★★ — ilabyrne, Oct. 2014** > We had an entire garden transformation from a boring grassy plot to a stunning family-friendly stylish dream garden: hard wood deck with custom BBQ & counter unit, planters, fencing, bench storage, lighting and irrigation. Great design experts & beautiful attention to detail especially with the handcut wood deck & custom planters. Helpful with planting solutions & very tidy & fast on site. Could offer greater flexibility in design modifications & proactive problem solving when issues did arise. Overall very happy with the end result. ## Selected projects - [Modern in Bed-Stuy](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-in-bed-stuy-pj-vj~319608) - Location: Brooklyn, NY - Photos: 12 - Description: Originally a fully paved yard, the owner wanted a streamlined, cool space to entertain and relax.

We designed a custom fence, round brick patio, and installed sconces, a post light, and uplighting.

The main design dilemmas were an AC unit and existing concrete slab near the house. By moving the living areas to the center and hiding the AC behind the outdoor kitchen, we were able to create a seamless modern aesthetic. The remaining concrete near the house was covered with gravel to allow for proper drainage. This garden features a mural wall, fireplace/pizza oven, veg… - [Boreum Hill Brownstone Garden](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/boreum-hill-brownstone-garden-pj-vj~658665) - Location: New York, NY - Photos: 7 - Description: This loft-like brownstone in Brooklyn needed a landscape that could stand up to it's massive character. Our clients wanted a wide open space for their 2 children and 2 golden labs to play. Seating and grilling areas were requested, along with a need for good drainage. We gave the space a country feel with stacked stone walls, flagstone patio, and shaker style sconces. The horizontal cedar fence and floating bench provide modern touches.

The kids love the basketball court and the adults have space to relax. Everyone enjoys meals from the built-in grill and the large planters offer a space for vegetable gardening. New Eco built custom benches for dining and a storage bench with cushions for lounging. The plantings are informal and sturdy enough to take a hit from a stray ball. Lighting and irrigation complete this low mai… - [Red Hook Front Yard](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/red-hook-front-yard-pj-vj~279996) - Location: New York, NY - Photos: 9 - Description: After being devastated by Hurricane Sandy, this Red Hook, Brooklyn garden needed new plants and new life.

The garden needed to function as an area where clients and employees could hold meetings, have lunch, host after work functions or just take a relaxing break during work. The evergreen shrubs and grasses give those working inside their privacy while the tall trees provide shade for the terrace that is in full sun most of the day. We used a mix of d… - [Transitional in Prospect Lefferts Gardens](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/transitional-in-prospect-lefferts-gardens-pj-vj~1287018) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - Description: This garden is a true oasis in the city.
