The removal and replacement of very large arborvitae in our backyard and refreshing and correcting drainage was completed very professionally (as usual). Efficient, on time, great cleanup and finish is what they do best. The entire team did a fantastic job and our backyard looks amazing. We continue to use them over the years for smaller and major projects with excellent and long lasting results each time. Highly recommend this company. Well done! **Comment from J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc.:** > Thank you for your kind words Mr. & Mrs. Hildebrand! Our team always enjoys projects with you, and it’s great to hear your appreciation for the work we perform. Thank you for putting your trust in us all these years – we look forward to working with you again! **★★★★ — Karl Voelkel, Jan. 2019** > Considering this is our first year of working with J.R. and his staff, we have been pleased with the results. Our needs may be somewhat different than others due to our type of property and our particular needs. But J.R.'s plan development and the work of the Team who did our work was very detailed, and responsive to our on-site requests. Attention to clean-up was excellent. Now that we have worked together for this first year, we look forward to developing a nice Spring and Fall routine that will continue to minimize our personal landscaping workload. **Comment from J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc.:** > Thank you for the kind feedback Mr. Voelkel, we look forward to working with you again this year! **★★★★★ — David Wagner, Nov. 2018** > J.R. Thomas Landscaping is a business built on the foundation of honesty and hard work. I would highly recommend J.R. and his team, as J.R. is a man by his word. His team completed a front yard project for me in 2018, and I have asked him back to remodel my entire backyard. After project completion, my expectations were more than met, as he continues to check up on the project/landscaping to make sure that everything is still up to par. > > I highly recommend. **Comment from J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc.:** > Thank you for such great feedback and kind words! J.R. and the rest of our team enjoy working with you and look forward to the next project and vision! **★★★★★ — Diana Paternoster, Aug. 2018** > My husband and I have been working with JR Thomas Landscaping for a number of years.

Thomas Landscaping, Inc.:** > We truly appreciate your trust in our team and the work we do, thank you so much! **★★★★★ — Erica McDonnell, Aug. 2017** > This company is extraordinary. I can recommend them without reservation. JR Thomas removed our cracked concrete walkway and provided us with a beautifully paved walk and carefully designed landscaping and lighting. We will definitely hire them for our next project. **Comment from J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc.:** > Thank you for such positive feedback, we loved working with you! We appreciate your trust in us and our work, so glad you're enjoying your outdoor space. **★★★★★ — dpaternoster, May 2016** > In 2014 my husband and I engaged J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc. to design and install the landscape for our new home. The home site required significant preparation prior to installation and winter was fast approaching when the project started. > > The design that J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc. developed and installed is beautiful and enhances the value of our home. > > We highly recommend J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc and continue to use the company for spring/fall maintenance. **Comment from J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc.:** > Thank you so much Mrs. Paternoster, we enjoy working with you! **★★★★★ — kipfanta, Feb. 2016** > I used J.R. Thomas Landscaping to help design and deliver a complete refresh of the landscaping around the house. J.R. and his team did a great job in proposing the mix of plants they thought best to use, which they reviewed with me in detail. They took into account all aspects of our home (very little sun in front, etc.) and had a great design. As part of the design, I wanted to include a lamp post and some appropriate lighting throughout the design as well. They brought all of this together very nicely. Their attention to detail is great. It's been very nice to see the design then come to life the past several seasons. **Comment from J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc.:** > Thank you for the awesome feedback Mr. Fanta, we enjoyed designing for you and and are happy to know it has come to life! **★★★★★ — bjrobinson90, Feb. 2016** > Landscaping and lighting of entire backyard with pool installation. Grading, installation of all plants, river rock, decorative boulders and stepping stones. Excellent communication. Professional workers. Seamlessly worked with other contractors. Finished on budget and on time. Creative designs. Wonderful screening with neighbors. Reasonable price. Creative design. The project managers and workers exceeded my expectations and we were very satisfied with the work. I would highly recommend JR Thomas Landscaping to others. **Comment from J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc.:** > Thank you so much for noticing our hard work and the quality we aim to always achieve - it's definitely appreciated! **★★★★★ — smwessel, Feb. 2016** > We hired JR Thomas and his crew for a large yard project involving excavation, grading, design, and plantings. Every member of the JR Thomas crew is professional and respectful. The team was detail-oriented and was driven to achieve the best result. We have since hired JR Thomas for a large landscape lighting project and a smaller landscaping project. The results were exactly the same, FANTASTIC! **Comment from J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc.:** > Thank you for your continued faith in our company and our people - it's a pleasure to be able to serve you! **★★★★★ — Kathy Hollman, Feb. 2016** > We were completely overwhelmed with the service and attention to detail that JR provided during the construction of our paver patio and seating wall. The finished product is beautiful and we are looking forward to working with JR on other projects this Spring! **Comment from J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc.:** > Thank you very much for the great feedback on our work Mrs. Hollman - we're happy to know that we met your standards! **★★★★★ — gregsusanallspach, Feb. 2016** > We were extremely satisfied with the services of JR Thomas Landscaping, Inc! They provided landscape design and service of our front and rear residential spaces, for a very fair price. JR himself specializes in personal service, which we truly appreciate! We are hiring this company again for additional landscaping work at our residence, and we highly recommend this company! **Comment from J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc.:** > It is always an extreme pleasure working with your family - thank you for continuing to come back to us with trust and appreciation! **★★★★★ — jgh261, Feb. 2016** > The landscaping done on our new home by another landscape designer did not meet our expectations. A neighbor referred us to J.R. Thomas, who talked with us at great length, took photos of our property, and developed a superior plan to enhance the design of our house and fulfill our plant preferences. J.R.'s team raised our beds for better drainage and amended them with superior bedding soil and mulch. Beds on sloped areas had been eroding, so J.R. added mulch that has not washed off. He also found trees and plants that are of interesting color and that will provide seasonal color variation. He was able to match our flood lights for additional lighting under our trees. J.R. wants to please his clients and offers careful consideration of each property. His prices are high, but we wish we'd used him initially instead of throwing money away on landscapers who cared and understood less. **Comment from J.R. Thomas Landscaping, Inc.:** > Thank you for your faith in our work and the quality J.R. always demands from his team - hope to work with you again! ## Selected projects - [Bluestone Patio with Fire Pit & Water Feature](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bluestone-patio-with-fire-pit-and-water-feature-pj-vj~1566527) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 4 - [Outside Garden with Pergola](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/outside-garden-with-pergola-pj-vj~1502858) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 3 - [Garden Oasis](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/garden-oasis-pj-vj~1424867) - Location: Cincinnati, OH - Photos: 1 - [Privacy Pool Design & Installation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/privacy-pool-design-and-installation-pj-vj~1505437) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 4 - [Deck & Lower Patio](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/deck-and-lower-patio-pj-vj~1503476) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 3 - [Landscape Upgrade for Architect's Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/landscape-upgrade-for-architect-s-home-pj-vj~4323756) - Location: Cincinnati, OH - Photos: 6 - [Walkway Hardscaping Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/walkway-hardscaping-project-pj-vj~1503375) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 3 - [Fun Firepit Construction](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fun-firepit-construction-pj-vj~1505879) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 2 - [Hardscaping for Outdoor Living](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hardscaping-for-outdoor-living-pj-vj~1503332) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 3 - [Custom Patio & Outdoor Fireplace](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/custom-patio-and-outdoor-fireplace-pj-vj~1505931) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 4 - [Natural Walkway, Patio & Deck](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/natural-walkway-patio-and-deck-pj-vj~1494364) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 4 - Description: Complete patio and deck rebuilt with natural landscape surrounding - [Custom Pool Design & Execution](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/custom-pool-design-and-execution-pj-vj~1503140) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 3 - [New Porch, Patio & Walkway](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-porch-patio-and-walkway-pj-vj~1506073) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 3 - [Maineville Spring Floral Planting](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/maineville-spring-floral-planting-pj-vj~2594721) - Location: Maineville, OH - Photos: 4 - [Abstract Landscaping](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/abstract-landscaping-pj-vj~1522832) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 1 - [Stone Staircase Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/stone-staircase-renovation-pj-vj~1502989) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 3 - [Small Upgrade Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/small-upgrade-project-pj-vj~1503217) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 2 - [Upgraded Pool & Landscape](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/upgraded-pool-and-landscape-pj-vj~1522853) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 1 - [Paver Patio with Natural Privacy Screen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/paver-patio-with-natural-privacy-screen-pj-vj~2874739) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 4 - [Tudor Restoration](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/tudor-restoration-pj-vj~1502973) - Location: Loveland, OH - Photos: 3 [See all 49 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/landscape-contractors/j-r-thomas-landscaping-inc-pfvwus-pf~404371543) ## Ideabooks - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/56711395/list/wish-list) — 3 ideas - [jrthomaslandscaping30's ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/56711396/list/jrthomaslandscaping30-s-ideas) — 1 idea [See all 2 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/jrthomas-landscaping) ## Community Q&A **Q: Winter creeper** *(in Photo Questions)* We live close to Charlotte NC would this work here?
