James did a bluestone patio and walkway in our back yard. They’re beautiful. He’s up front about all costs and very friendly. His team has great craftsmanship and worked very efficiently. Our patio was complete less than 2 weeks after we signed to do the work. Give them a call!

J.P. Philbin Landscapes just finished completely transforming our yard, and we could not be more satisfied with the results! Working with James is a pleasure. He is professional, reliable and an expert at what he does. We recently bought a new home and felt completely overwhelmed with the scope of work that needed to be done in our yard; new walkways, planting grass in the entire yard after taking down trees, new garden beds and plantings, an irrigation system, fixing drainage issues, among other things. As soon as we met with James to discuss, we knew we were in good hands. The results have exceeded our expectations. The before & after photos speak for themselves. They have our highest recommendation!
James and his team are experts in the field of planting, masonry and landscape maintenance. Reliable, high quality and easy to work with. Highly recommend!
