Last 6 months: 0 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read LaurelRock describes itself on Houzz as a landscape maintenance, tree services and design/build firm, and its website lists a service area that includes Westport, Darien, Greenwich, Danbury and Ridgefield. A 2025 customer hired LaurelRock for a large-scale outdoor renovation and said the owner, Burt DeMarche, was very involved throughout the whole process. A 2025 customer who moved into a new home in Darien said LaurelRock planned the first phase of a multi-phase enhancement plan, added drainage infrastructure and irrigation adjustments, and replaced a couple of arborvitae that didn't take at no cost. A 2025 customer said the company designed and implemented a property redesign and a pool installation. A 2023 customer said LaurelRock helped regrade and redesign their entire backyard and put in a pool, and called the company very transparent about costs and pricing. A 2024 customer wrote that LaurelRock had just finished some tree work for them. A 2019 customer said they had used Laurel Rock since 2004 for three properties, on projects that included complicated drainage plans and substantial retaining walls. A 2018 customer said their project manager researched the correct clay for a softball pitching mound and how to install it. A 2014 customer said Allan, their landscape architect, was always on site during installation of plantings. A 2020 Houzz customer waited over two weeks for a landscape designer to evaluate a project, and said the man who came told them he didn't know anything about planting. That 2020 customer said no one called afterward. Connecticut lists its home improvement contractor registration, HIC.0565606, as active, held by The LaurelRock Company. **Strengths:** - Landscape design — a 2025 customer described a property redesign and pool installation - Weekly maintenance — a 2025 customer said their lawn didn't have a weed - Replaced plantings — a 2025 customer said failed arborvitae were replaced at no cost - Cost transparency — a 2023 customer called them very transparent about pricing **Concerns:** - A slow design visit — a 2020 customer waited over two weeks, then got no callback ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - 4.3 stars from 15 Google ratings _(confidence: high)_ - [Google](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=LaurelRock&query_place_id=ChIJaxY59CMC6IkRZ-8HxHVltkc) — “Google: 4.3★ from 15 ratings” - 4.7 stars from 13 Houzz ratings _(confidence: high)_ - [Houzz](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/landscape-architects-and-landscape-designers/laurelrock-pfvwus-pf~1703442341) — “Houzz: 4.7★ from 13 ratings” - Describes itself as a landscape maintenance, tree services and design/build firm _(confidence: medium)_ - [Houzz](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/landscape-architects-and-landscape-designers/laurelrock-pfvwus-pf~1703442341) — “About (Houzz profile, the business's own statement): LaurelRock is an award-winning landscape maintenance, tree services & design/build firm…” - Lists a service area including Westport, Darien, Greenwich, Danbury and Ridgefield _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](http://laurelrock.com) — “Stated service area (self-reported): Westport, Darien, New Canaan, Greenwich, Fairfield, Wilton, Danbury, Ridgefield, Bridgeport” - A 2025 customer described drainage infrastructure and irrigation adjustments added to an enhancement plan _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSURfcDdXUDJnRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x47b66575c407ef67!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgID_p7WP2gE%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ LaurelRock truly does what their slogan says, they deliver "Exceptional Residential Landscapes".
