At a new-build home in York, Maine, a customer said Stephen Carr prepared the yard, planted the shrubs, bushes and trees, and built a 9 by 15 patio with blue/gray pavers that mimic bluestone. A customer said Stephen and his team designed and installed a patio and landscaping at their home and were meticulous to work with. A customer described his collaborative design approach, with plant options built around their color and mature-size preferences and how they use the space. On Google the business shows 4.5 stars from 8 ratings, and a mainebiz.biz piece has described how Stephen Carr grew a property services business from a teenage mowing gig. In a 2022 review, a caller who wanted a few yards of mulch delivered and spread said that two months after first asking, there was still no call back, visit or estimate.

Stephen is the best! He is smart, funny and best of all a perfectionist.

We are so happy with his ideas, wonderful hard working team and would happily work with him again and again!
Unfortunately I never had the chance to use Steven Carr for the job. I called Steven Carr Landscaping on April 27th, 2022 asking for an estimate to deliver and spread some mulch on my property. After about 3-weeks, he called and said he couldn't come over that day but didn't say when he could make it over. Never heard back. I had to call him two more times. He told me he couldn't come out the second time I called. I called a third time and just left a message to get back to me or at least give me an estimate. It's been 2-months now and still no call back, visit or estimate. I guess they're too busy for a local customer who needs only a few yards of mulch.
