GardenWorks Boston, LLC

Brem was great to work with. Good communication back and forth as we worked together on the design and build of an arbor in my garden. I've had problems with contractors who aren't gardeners, and contractors who can't seem to collaborate with a homeowner, but there were none of those concerns and the outcome is a beautiful structure for climbing plants and a smooth working relationship. I will definitely be contacting GardenWorks Boston in the future.

Brem recently converted my backyard into a beautiful garden, complete with a great patio installation, and a water feature. From the initial consultation to the final touches, Brem displayed dedication and an attention to detail that exceeded my expectations. Right from the start, Brem took the time to listen to my ideas and preferences. He patiently discussed various design concepts and offered valuable insights to enhance the overall vision of the project. He skillfully combined a diverse selection of plants, flowers, and shrubs, resulting in a harmonious blend of colors and textures . The quality of materials used and the precision in the construction of the patio was impressive. Brem and his team demonstrated a high level of professionalism and integrity. They kept me informed of the progress, promptly addressed any concerns, and always arrived on schedule. In conclusion, I recommend Brem highly for any landscaping project for his exceptional design skills, professional approach, and genuine passion for creating beautiful outdoor spaces.

Brem does a great job with my city landscape. He is very creative, is reliable and always on time. If I have any questions about what he's done he comes over and reviews them with me in person until we get to an agreed-upon solution. He provides me a detailed plan for what he's going to do for the season and a budget with pricing. When things change he just the cost accordingly. It is a pleasure doing business with brem. I've been working with him for two seasons now and highly recommend his services. It is my intention to continue to work with him.

Great design, creative. I wasn’t sure how to describe what I wanted but he got the idea and drew up a great plan nonetheless!! Very focused and knowledgeable. He follows through and is very caring, takes pride in his work. I would highly recommend!!

Brem did an excellent job in transforming our yard with landscaping that matches well with the location and the setting we were trying to evoke. He worked well in tailoring his vision to match ours, and was in constant communication throughout every step of the process. The work was completed on schedule with minimal interruption to our day-to-day activities. We're happy to have chosen him, and would definitely recommend his work.

Brem and GardenWorks did a great job turning our potholed, unused driveway into a beautiful patio. They handled all of the details with design, excavation, fence construction, materials, planting, and the patio build itself. Great communication through every step of the project and very professional. We couldn't be happier with how this project turned out!

Brem is fantastic. He envisioned a wall of climbing roses where we have a stretch of dated, white fence. This is only the second summer and they already cover a significant amount of the fence and look amazing. He helped transform our lackluster front flower beds into vibrant, interesting spaces in continuous bloom. He worked with me to ensure I knew exactly how to care for the plants and still checks in to make sure I’m happy with everything. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough!

It's been a real pleasure working with Brem Hyde. He approaches his work with real enthusiasm and expertise. I first contacted Brem through the GardenWorks website last summer (2021). Of the several service providers I contacted, Brem was one of the three who responded promptly and courteously. His prices were also competitive. In the end, he ended up doing work on both the front patio (removing a small dead tree) and planting and our rooftop patio- the more substantial of the two. He asked many relevant questions and provided recommendations for plants (two flowering scrubs, roses, and a tree) that made perfect sense for our uses of the space and the weather on the roof deck (completely exposed to the elements - no shade, very windy, etc.). He also custom-made the planting containers. Given the timing of the project, we ended up planting them in the fall. Brem gave me advice on how much to water, etc, as we prepared them for fall and winter. This spring (2022), the plants came to life! Really lovely and exciting! Brem continues to provide his services (pruning, etc.) for a reasonable fee. I recommend him highly.

Brem did an excellent job! He designed and built new fences which are beautiful. While seriously taking our input into consideration, he carefully designed and selected plantings that would grow well with the light conditions and aesthetically fitting with each other. He also coordinated the irrigation estimate and installations. Each step of the way, he conscientiously updated us on any change and made sure the work completely fit within our expectations. Lastly, we were very pleased with the finished work!

Brem did a great job on our landscaping this spring. He met with us to discuss our ideas, listened carefully and thoughtfully designed our space. Once we agreed on a plan, he kept me updated on timing and arrived when expected (and actually delivered a bit earlier than originally scheduled) All around a great experience.

We worked GardenWorks Boston, LLC to landscape a patio area in a Boston Backbay condo. We sat down with Brem, the owner of GardenWorks Boston, and went through a set of questions that allowed him to properly plan out the space. This included, the amount of sun the space gets, location of planters, and the types of plants, flowers, and herbs that would do well in the space. His knowledge of gardening, and plant types was very impressive and he answered all our questions thoroughly, and in the process educated and expanded our knowledge of garden plants and landscaping that would do well in our space. Brem took the information about our patio space, and drew up plans that included planter locations and plant types that would work in the space. He presented his plan, asked for feedback, allows us to make any changes, and then came up with a final plan that we implemented in the Spring. Our experience with Brem and GardenWorks Boston was outstanding and very professional. We now have a beautiful patio space with lovely plants and flowers that we will enjoy through the Spring, Summer, and Fall. We also love to cook, and we now have a variety of fresh herbs that we will be able to use in out French and Italian receipts. Our overall experience was wonderful and outstanding. We would highly recommend GardenWorks Boston for any garden and landscaping needs you have in the future.

Brem and his crew have been a total pleasure to work with, starting with the first contact and now through the final stages of our project. He is a great listener, taking my unformed ideas and taking them to the next level- resulting in a beautiful bluestone patio, with an amazing pergola. Brem went above and beyond looking for the best stones, taking the time to check out several places. The person who worked with him to make the pergola was great too, and came up with the idea to match the design to the brackets of our house. These kinds of details can make such a huge difference. Everyone involved definitely takes pride in their work and it shows. Brem is also flexible and creative in both design and problem-solving- for example, when he uncovered a deep septic tank that we had no idea had existed, he explored ways to deal with it, handling that surprise very smoothly. He is also fantastic about incorporating new ideas as they come up over the course of the project. I will actually feel a bit sad when they are completely finished! -but plan to hire them again in a heartbeat for any other projects.

I was completely impressed from first contact to finished product. Brem took my somewhat vague vision and created a design that was exactly what I had hoped. The project included a remake of my front and back yard and augmenting my side yard with new plantings. He and his team finished the project on time and on budget. The customer service is first rate, and the quality is very high. I am so pleased with the outcome. I highly recommend GardenWorks Boston.

Brem knocked our project out of the park! He installed and oversaw a very large project in our backyard that included electrical, masonry, landscaping, carpentry and irrigation. He adeptly managed all aspects of the job including his own crew and multiple subcontractors while ensuring budget goals were maintained. He was patient and understanding with all of our questions and helped guide us through the entire process. Communication is huge for me and Brem was always quick to respond to whatever request or question I had. I highly recommend GardenWorks Boston for any project!

Brem did an excellent job with our plantings and he is great to work with. We are very happy with the results.

I can’t say enough great things about Brem & the Garden Works team. They designed and re-did our backyard in Jamaica Plain. Brem has a great design vision, but also executes perfectly. They were reliable, accommodating, conscientious, and very neighborly. Here’s an example: our driveway was too narrow for a delivery truck to get up, so the driver dumped an enormous 8 foot pile of stone dust at the bottom of our driveway. The first thing Brem and his team did was to clean up our neighbors driveway, then they wheeled it all to our backyard without a complaint. I should say we are also really pleased with the value we got. Their work is very reasonably priced, especially for someone with such great taste.

Garden Works did landscape design and implementation of the gardening workfor my development and construction company on a few projects. Most notable on our conversion of the old Daly News printing plant into 172 condominiums with gardens through and a large front yard garden. I was extremely happy with the work they did! The work was done within the schedule and budget of the project and our deal. And the aesthetics, attention to detail, and execution was second to none.

Great work ethic, talented and reliable. Brem was working for us for over 10 years here in NYC and also was in charge of a complete reorganization of our back-yard (wood panel, fountain, plants, 2 side sheds, irrigation system). Brem designed the project and executed. The budget was respected and the project was finished on time, It was a major project (+$100,000). it is with pleasure that we can recommend Brem.

We had a great experience with Garden Works and would highly recommend their business! Brem helped us design our rooftop and side lot gardens.

Brem built a bluestone patio in my small urban backyard. He added stepping stones from the gate to the patio and built out a bed. The patio is awesome and has added much usability and beauty to the space. It was carefully considered and it matches the environment.

GardenWorkd turned my barren backyard into an urban oasis to be cherished year-round. Ivy plants covered an unattractive brick wall and plenty of seasonal plants and aromatic herbs made the outdoors more exciting than the indoors

Love GardenWorks! I had the pleasure of working with GardenWorks designing, planting, and maintaining my NYC terrace, beginning in 1998 and continuing uninterrupted for 10 years!

Best described by the images of completed projects, a picture is worth a thousand words, GardenWorks delivered. Its not surprising to see so many both artful and complex installations.
