You will never be let down. **★★★★★ — kraff11, Oct. 2013** > We had a great experience with ODD Jobs. They were able to level our backyard from a 15 degree grade to about a 3 degree grade, with retaining walls and infill. They did a beautiful job on our stone patio, along with adding a built in grill and fire pit. Our drab landscape has been replaced with gorgeous hydrangea, boxwood, arborvitae, holly and more. Our favorite part of the project is the exquisite covered porch, which was originally a 10x15 standard gray deck. The stonework and meticulous detail turned out better than we could have hoped for. I would highly recommend ODD Job for any outdoor project. They are extremely dependable and fantastic to work with. **★★★★★ — sparks41, Sept. 2013** > We used Odd Job Lanscaping for the design, lanscape installation, lanscape lighting, irrigation, and some masonry for the new house we built. The experience was outstanding. They worked well with the other contractors, provided good suggestions, charged what they said they would, and delivered a beatiful result. We also use Odd Job Lanscaping for ongoing care and service. They are very professional and reliable, and they perorm there duties very efficiently. ## Selected projects - [Sophisticated Simplicity](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sophisticated-simplicity-pj-vj~5507953) - Location: Darien, CT - Photos: 13 - Description: Manicured and elegant, yet simple and spacious – this property is equally suited to formal gatherings and family fun.
