In a 2024 Google review, a customer said Dustin and his dad completed a curb appeal job of 2 retaining walls, 2 stairways and a walkway, plus some lawn repair, in 3 and one half days as scheduled. That 2024 customer said Dustin emailed a detailed job bid within 2 days. Carrier Lawn and Landscape LLC is a lawn, landscape and hardscape company whose owner and founder, Dustin Carrier, guides customers through the design process, according to its own website. The company reports 17 years in business, and its Houzz profile says Dustin has dual degrees in landscape horticulture and business administration. A 2025 Google customer said they hired Carrier for the excavation work for a new foundation and that Dustin was very responsive throughout. A 2024 customer who asked Dustin for a retaining wall inspection and quote said he talked them out of his services in favor of some mitigation steps instead of a full rehab or replacement. A 2021 Houzz customer with an old lakeside camp said a new paver walkway with 16 granite steps was placed in 4 days. That 2021 customer also described 80 feet of shoreline rip rap and 2000 sq ft of sod, and said Dustin kept them informed of the DEP permitting process. A 2020 customer said Dustin's estimate came in higher than a second estimate, and that he took the time to explain why his retaining walls hold. In 2017, a customer said Carrier Landscaping installed a patio, granite steps and a sliding door, done on time and at the promised cost. A 2017 customer who had 3 contractors estimate the work said Mr. Carrier's was the most expensive quote. A 2017 customer said Dustin dug up around a recently replaced water pipe and sealed it with special cement, and after he finished there was no more water in the basement. A 2016 customer said Dustin Carrier created a patio and a flower garden surrounded by a curved stone wall. In 2015, a customer said they plowed when and where they said they would and called to ask whether the storm required a plow. A 2015 Houzz review from a firm said it had used Carrier for several years for snow removal, grass mowing and some landscaping. Carrier holds 4.4 stars from 40 Google ratings and 4.9 stars from 12 Houzz ratings, along with an A+ grade from the Better Business Bureau.
We hired Carrier to perform the excavation work for a new foundation. Throughout the process, Dustin was very responsive. They did exactly what we wanted, made suggestions for a better end result, showed up when he said they would, and produced an amazing final result. Highly recommended for any excavation/back filling needs.
We recently had a curb appeal job done by Carrier lawn and Landscape. Dustin made a visit to my home to go over the plans and to also offer very helpful information. The job included 2 retaining walls, 2 stairways and a walkway along with some lawn repair. He emailed me a detailed job bid within 2 days and quickly answered any question that I had. We scheduled a date and timetable and the project was on. About a month later Dustin arrived with his dad and for 3 and one half days completed the job as scheduled and the final results was amazing. Working from home I had a chance to watch the work done and also the perfection and effort that Dustin and his dad put in to the job. I have owned my home for 35 years and have done many upgrades and projects. This has to go down as one of the best. I would give this job and Dustin and his dad 10 stars!!! Book him early as he is in demand for the right reasons.....
Dustin came out to do a retaining wall inspection and quote. He was punctual, knowledgeable and put us at ease at some of the problems we were seeing. He actually talked us out of utilizing his services in favor of some mitigation steps instead of a full rehab/replace. We (un)fortunately won't get to work with him on this project, but with his integrity and expertise - he's the first call I'll be making on the next one.
Prompt and thorough communication, excellent work. Was a pleasure to work with!
Bought an old lakeside camp 2 years ago in desperate need of a new walkway, sod, and rip rap placement for shore erosion. I researched landscaping companies and called Carrier Landscape. Dustin came out to do a site visit in early April. He was prompt and professional providing a quote for the 3 listed projects the next day. Dustin clearly communicates, keeping me informed of the DEP permitting process and start date of projects. In 4 days time a beautiful new paver walkway was placed with 16 granite steps. 80 feet of shoreline rip rap placed, and 2000sq ft of sod. Dustin and his team absolutely crushed these projects and delivered the beauty aesthetically this lake home needed. His pricing is fair and competitive with other quotes I received. I highly recommend Carrier Landscape for their dedication to fine workmanship.
