Dry streambeds create the look of a natural stream or creek without a constant flow of water. Dry streambeds are often used as a remedy to channel excess surface water, alleviate pooling and/or standing water. Not only do they provide a beneficial solution to these problems they also enhance the aesthetic of one's property. Imagine a stream meandering through your gardens, our designs often incorporate native and aquatic plants to transform your outdoor sanctuary.
Firepits can provide a social center piece in the back yard with a warm and dry place to gather with friends and family. They can be integrated into patios or simply have a gravel surrounding to prevent spread of the fire. Decorate the area with chairs, benches, picnic tables and/or lawn ornaments for a cozy escape from the daily grind.
Forest Clearing: We have the ability to top, remove, and cut down large trees as well as remove any fallen trees, limbs, and foliage. Forest clearing can be done to open up your property, make room for new constructions, or new landscape designs. You decide what you done with the remaining materials such as trunks, branches, and foliage - We can recommend milling companies to turn your wood into valuable lumber, we can cut it into firewood, or we can relocate all the foliage to a compost heap on your property, or just simply haul away all the materials back to our nursery for proper use or disposal - you decide.

Mom and Pop run business. Hardest working, kindest people I've ever met. With a true knowledge and passion for their work. Show respect and consideration for clients as individuals, With an effort to keep up with rising costs of suppliers and product, they make a genuine effort to price work and plants fairly.

We used Landscape Creations Nursery on a couple of areas in our backyard. My biggest disappointment was that the 3 trees that they installed 4 years ago are growing way too close to each other, and there is no room for the shrubs that were planted near the trees. Everything is spilling out into the patio and walkway. This is the exact issue I wanted to avoid & the reason I hired a professional landscaping company to design, select, and install the plants!
This was quite expensive, so not always true that you get what you pay for. I could have had less trees & shrubs & saved some money, but apparently that's not their business model and Ive already moved shrubs and will soon need to take out at least one of the trees. Their business model is to design for maximum plant installation without regard to future growth.
Also two of the Japanese maples they installed in September died that winter and despite their 12 month warranty on their trees that they installed, they claimed they could not reimburse material cost due to weather-related conditions! What! You can always say that the plant died due to weather related conditions in Ohio winters! They offered absolutely no discount! Interestingly when installed, they never recommended or even suggested that the trees be covered over the winter, so they should honor the warranty. I will file a report with the BBB. Can't trust a company that doesn't honor their warranty. Would not recommend.

There are so many positive things about the quality of the consultation services, workmanship and quality of the end product I have experienced working with Joanne and Peter at Landscape Creations. From installing a feature waterfall, a beautiful patio to the attention to detail in caring for garden spaces. they covering it all with professionalism and passion for what they do. I heartily recommend them.

Joanne is very knowledgeable, efficient, gives thought to your landscaping goals and what will work for the long-term. She didn't not try to convince me of something i did not need, nor over charge me because I didn't know a lot about the plants. I am so excited to plant everything today, in addition to sharing her business cards with family, friends and neighbors. Thank you!

Joanne, Pete and their crew were exceptional. Joanne and Pete took the time to take into account our needs and budget. Both were at our house when the landscaping work was done. Their crew worked harder that any crew I have ever seen. They went above and beyond re-leveling stones and removing weeds from areas outside of the work. They were neat and organized, and when they left, our garden was perfect. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

We hired Landscape Creations to finish our front yard. When they were half way done with the yard they told us that they underestimated the dirt required to complete the job. They gave us two options- pay an extra $2,000 or they could stop and leave half of the yard unfinished. I am astonished that a professional could estimate so poorly. I believe that they intentionally underestimated the job just to get our business.
After paying the extra money, they did not pull out silt fences or plant grass to the property line as we requested. When they finished, there were patches in the yard where grass wouldn't grow. We dug out a 4 foot log and a 2 foot stone that they just raked over and tried to plant grass on top of. We had to reseed the area. We called them multiple times to discuss the issues and they never returned our phone calls.
The following spring we had to have someone come in and fix the grading in the front yard because of all of the low spots that were left in the yard. We still have a constant puddle were water runs across our driveway and turns to a sheet of ice in the winter. We paid additional thousands of dollars to have someone come in and fix as much of their poor work as possible.
Again we tried to call to discuss with them and they didn't answer their phone and didn't return our calls. The owner will probably respond to this with some claims that we ruined the grade in our yard on our own, but this isn't true. The low spots were visible in the yard from they day they finished the job. This is likely why they never returned our phone calls.
