The Decorative Team is knowledgeable and experienced. They know when to work themselves and when to sub work out to get the job done right. Our yard required a lot of retaining and we were very pleased with the results. So much so, that we have additional work that we are asking Decorative to complete.

These guys are complete rockstars. Kyle, Brian, and team are super professional, talented, and HONEST! I've received countless compliments on the job they did with our yard. From design to installation, to fixing any issues that arose (a couple plants died and they swapped them no problem, fixed a few sprinkler heads that went bad over the winter). I'd recommend them VERY highly to anybody.

We have loved working with Decorative. They did the landscape of our home when we built a few years ago. We have had them come back each year since then to add some items to the yard, and we have plans for next year! They never disappoint! Would recommend with any hesitation!

We had Decorative do our landscaping for a new build in American Fork. I greatly value that they stuck to the timeline they had bid our project at, were incredible about communicating questions/issues, and got the job done at a top quality. Their crew comes in force, works fast, and got our yard flat, clear of rocks and ready for a great yard. Couldn't be happier with their service.

This company was great to work with from the design stage all the way through completion. The communication throughout the process was spot on. They definitely knew what they were doing. I highly recommend Decorative Landscaping.

Decorative landscaping did an outstanding job for us. They met with us at the beginning of our building project and helped us through the entire process to make sure elevations and grading was done right. Their involvement and knowledge was crucial to the amazing results of our building process. Kyle, Brian and their crew were such hard workers, polite, and great to answer any questions we had. They went over and above to make sure we were happy with the outcome. I can’t recommend them enough.

Great vision and execution. Our project was a little complicated and they completely exceeded our expectations. Our friends and family can't believe that we ended up with the back yard we have after seeing what our lot looked like at the beginning. From retaining walls, to plant selection their taste and experience was exactly what our yard needed.

The best thing about Decorative is that they stand behind their work. They have come and fixed things the same day or next day after the job was complete. My yard is now dialed in and looks great!

The team at Decorative Landscaping was great to work with. I've hired a fair number of contractors for various things, and they were among the best to work with. They were easy to contact and responsive during the process, showed up every day, and worked consistently until the job was done. They did quality work on our rock wall, pavers, and plantings and had good suggestions along the way.

Decorative did a great job on our project. Rock work, core landscaping (grass, sprinklers, trees, shrubs) fully met and overall exceeded our expectations. The team was easy to work with and open to answer all of our questions. For the nature of our landscaping project, I believe Decorative was a great choice.
We are very pleased with our overall landscaping and excited to enjoy it for a full year in 2017.
Toward the end of the project, Decorative left certain subs to complete their work with minimal supervision. This is my only hesitation from a full 5 star rating. These subs (concrete color/stamp and basketball court lines) did not fully meet our expectations. I believe if Decorative had more closely managed these subs, then the outcome would have been improved.

Comment from Decorative Landscaping:
Rob Thank you for your kind words and more importantly the Feedback! Our focus is our customer experience from start to finish, and although we only sub out very few items on our custom landscaping projects- for those items that we do end up bringing in other local professionals on, we only bring in companies that share our same passion for quality and performance- as our sub contractors are a direct reflection of who we are.
I am sorry you felt our sub-contractors were left un-managed towards the end of your project- and we will use that feedback to ensure other customers do not have a similar experience in the future.
Thank you again for letting us design and build your fantastic project. It was a pleasure working with you and Katie- and of course please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly for any additional needs or concerns. Kyle

The team at Decorative installed a rock wall along the entire length of our south property line to properly deal with the elevation issues between our property and the neighbors property. Tracy the owner personally met with the neighbor to explain what he proposed. The wall turned out awesome and the neighbor is very happy.
Tracy proposed a rock wall instead of a block wall and the look turned out better and the cost savings allowed me to have Decorative install landscaping lights (which we love), fix some issues with the sprinkler system installed by a different landscaping company and install a new faucet right where I wanted it.
I plan to have the team at Decorative do some additional work for me once the snow stops flying.

It was truly a breath of fresh air to work with Decorative Landscaping. Last year we worked with a different landscaping company to begin our project, but we didn't want to finish the project with them this year, so we looked around and found Decorative, and I'm glad we did. It was like night and day over last year. My wife and I were not looking for a typical landscape, but the people at Decorative really understood us, even though some of what we were looking for was a bit unique. Not only did they understand what we were looking for, they gave us an accurate quote (we actually came in a few hundred $ under the quote by the end), and finished it in the time they said, if not a little earlier. And we LOVE the end result. Couldn't be happier. Only complaint I can have is that the project started a little later than we had hoped, but that's only because of the high demand for these guys since they are the best!

David! Thank you for the kind review! We really enjoyed working with you and your wife. It is refreshing when the customer has done their homework, and has a plan in mind- and we love to execute on a great plan! All the best

We hired Decorative for our new construction landscape project. What a terrific company to do business with. Kyle(owner) was very easy to work with and came up with the perfect design. Scott (project foreman) was very detailed and brought this yard to life. It turned out better than we could imagine even under a very tight timeline as this was a 2016 Parade of Homes project. We would and have recommended Decorative to everyone we know looking for landscape help.

Kyle, Tracy, and Scott at Decorative Landscaping were great to work with. Great attention to detail. They never assumed anything without asking us first. They finished on time and under budget. We love our landscaping!

Tracy, Kyle, Brian and their whole team were the best to work with. We were on the waiting list for a while and it was so worth it! They incorporated everything that we were looking for in a beautiful design. They worked so fast and did such an amazing job. Tracy and Brian have so much experience and it really made all of the decision making so easy. We loved the entire crew! Not only were the guys such hard workers in the summer heat, they were so sweet with my kids and let them help when they wanted to lay pavers and plant trees. They are amazing and I recommend them to everyone.
Thank you!!!

I hired Decorative Landscape to finish my backyard last October. Kyle Nelson has been my contact there is he has always been awesome to work with! Overall my front and back yard look amazing and we always get compliments on our landscape. I never hesitate to refer people to Kyle and he has always taken good care of them. Our landscape has a pool, spa, pavers, curb, trees, shrubs, drip, playbox, playset, rockwall, rock steps, lighting, rv pad..everything Decorative did was great. The one regret I have is I didn't have Kyle manage the pool installation. I thought I could save a couple bucks and managed the pool guy myself (tried at least). The pool guy was super late on just about everything and delayed the entire job. If I could do it again I would defer that responsibility to Kyle in a second! IMO these are guys you can trust to do a great job at a fair price. Great communication, great quality, I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Decorative Landscaping was brought in during the construction of our home to do the retaining wall behind our house. This was no simple project. The homebuilder had excavated and finished framing with a 28-foot drop behind the house and no access or entry points for their equipment. There was also a steep slope and extreme landslide risk. Needless to say, our homebuilder had no experience with this terrain.
Decorative Landscaping had their work cut out for them.
Despite the difficulty, Decorative Landscaping managed to excavate a walkway behind the house and then protect it from landslides with a three-tier retaining rock wall. Watching them at work was extremely reassuring since each rock was placed and then tested for stability. We only wish they had been brought in sooner because it would have saved us an inordinate amount of money on excavation.

Decorative Landscaping just finished the landscaping on our new home. It's beautiful, came in on budget and all of their employees were great to work with. We trust them - they are fair and honest. Our general contractor was impressed that the landscaping was complete as promised before we moved into the home. This is the second home they have landscaped for us and we would definitely use them again. They do high quality work and we highly recommend them.

Decorative landscaped my entire yard, they put in an underground tramp, a pavers section with an elevated fire pit, 40 trees and over 60 bushes, Not to mention some retention work we needed done. We get compliments on our yard all the time, It looks amazing. We've even had a few small issues with a few bushes dying and they've come right out and replaced them. Great company, beautiful work!

This was a pleasant experienced, Brian listened carefully to what I wanted done. The yard looks amazing, I've had several people comment on what a nice job they did. Thanks!!

Decorative was wonderful to work with. They were honest and were so good to communicate what was being done along with solutions to challenges that came to light. They built an incredible retaining wall and kept what was important to us in mind throughout our entire project. They're employees were considerate, respectfull and worked hard. I would highly recommend Decorative.

The team from Decorative Landscaping did an amazing job on our landscaping project. They nailed the modern/ clean design we were targeting and wrapped up the project on time and within budget. They were very collaborative and provided great suggestions as to the layout, design and selection of shrubs and trees.

The entire crew was amazing to work with. I'd highly suggest using Decorative and they concept planning to the actual install was seamless. They even accommodated my timeline that was pushed back due to the builder being late. I really love their work.

We recently built a home and had a blank slate with our yard. We interviewed several landscape designers, architects and basic installers. We selective Decorative based on their ability to deliver everything from design, tree/shrub/flower selection, hardscaping and having their own nursery. They didn't disappoint! They have been polite, professional and are excellent with communication and updates which have had challenges with other companies. There selection of trees in their nursery are fantastic. Out of the 50+ trees they planted, we had three that had to be replaced under warranty which they did promptly without any questions. They also delivered a paver patio, firepit, basketball court and fencing which we have loved. This is a friendly one stop shop that we highly recommend and continue to use!

We had a great experience with the whole team and Decorative. The design helped maximize our space and still match our use, vision and future plans for the yard. We regularly have people comment on various aspects of the landscaping but the best part is we still absolutely love our yard. The sprinklers cover every part of the grass, the layout of the yard leaves everything useful and beautiful, the garden boxes are perfect, the rock walls are quality and after a full summer/fall we still love it. Great to work with, very professional, very timely, very accessible and the few follow-ups and questions we've had since they finished have been fixed or answered quickly. We can easily recommend Decorative.

I have done several landscape projects with Kyle, Tracy, and Brian and Decorative Landscaping. They did my own personal house and several investment properties. This crew is easy to communicate with, creative with design, and has always gotten the job done on time and on budget. I have done low end budget jobs as well as high end landscape jobs. They have always handled potential issues that came up in the best possible way. I have worked with several landscapers in the valley and Decorative Landscaping has been the best every time! I would highly recommenced working with them on a project.

My yard turned out excellent! I am so happy with the work that Decorative Landscaping did for me. They were so helpful and professional throughout the entire process. They provided me with a beautiful full color layout and all the cost breakdowns that I could pick and choose from. Their knowledge in plants was in depth and very helpful. Any changes throughout the process, they were very accommodating to. They were quick and very thorough. I highly recommend Decorative Landscaping.

The professionals at Decorative are great to work with on projects of all sizes. We used them 12 years ago on a larger property and recently on a medium property. Each property was unique and beautiful. On the more recent project, Tracy, Brian and the crew were great to work with and gave so much value for the dollars invested. The project was always at or ahead of forecast and on or below budget.
We would use them again and again as well as recommend them to our friends.

It is amazing to me to see how beautiful our yard is. We have a constant flow of cars that slow down or even stop to view our landscaping. The crew that worked on our yard were professionals at their jobs and the work went as fast as the early spring weather would allow. Decorative Landscaping was not the least expensive company out there but the were worth every penny we spent. From the trees and the grass to the cement patio, sports court and waterfall we could not be happier.

After doing an extensive amount of research, gathering quotes, and talking to neighbors, we elected to go with Decorative after several neighbors highly recommended them. Our experience with them was incredible from our first interaction.
With our busy family schedule, Tracy was willing to come to our house on a Saturday to meet with us face to face, walk through our lot, and discuss our landscaping needs. After taking some measurements and assessing our needs, he drew up a beautiful set of plans that incorporated everything from our wish list. He priced out each component of the project so that we could pick and choose which parts were most important to us in order to remain comfortably within our budget.
Once they began working on the landscaping they were very professional and detail-oriented. Brian and his crew updated us daily on the agenda for that day's work so that we were always in the loop and could make any necessary change requests. Brian was extremely responsive to our phone calls and text messages. When we were in the quote-gathering process, we were surprised at how slow the other companies were in replying to our messages.
Since the project has completed, Brian and his team have stopped by several times to check the plants, grass, and trees and to make sure the irrigation system is effectively covering our lot. When a couple plants dried out and failed to take proper root, he ripped them out and replaced them at no extra cost.
I would highly recommend Decorative to any homeowner who is looking into available options for landscaping.

I couldn't be happier with Decorative Landscaping. They were able to quickly put in my yard from dirt work to completed project in just two weeks. We love the amazing Rock Wall and the sprinkler system has been so reliable. We had a small issue and they were right back out the next morning to make sure it taken care of. I will be using Decorative on my next home! I would recommend them to anyone looking for a complete and beautiful yard.

Decorative landscape is awesome. They installed our landscape with a degree of perfectionism. I'm a landscape architect, so I'm rather picky about the installation of my designs. There is no other landscape contractor I would use besides Decorative. I highly recommend them.

These guys have the best, most refined, and most professional crew I have ever met. They are quick, clean, easy to deal with and exceed what you ask them to do.
I would go with no other landscape company in the area, and I have used most of them for projects both personally and on my business. Plus, if there is a problem, or complaint on something, the JUMP on it!
Use these guys! They will be the last company you will ever use for your landscaping.
