Naturescapes

They were good enough to call me back. Some companies would have just left me hanging. Unfortunately, while I read that they do wonders with indigenous plantings, they were not able to help me first get rid of invasive species (i.e. Japanese knotweed, devil's tail, wild raspberries) to make room for a more healthy landscape. I was really looking forward to working with them.

We spoke with 3 companies and picked John and Naturescapes. We wanted native plants in the front and back of the house and at the top of the driveway. We also needed a walkway and plants to manage water run off and hide a well head and the generator. John was easy to work with. We love what he has done and receive many compliments. John designed a perennial landscape, with a lot of color and texture, that is fun to watch as it changes throughout the year. The birds, bees and butterflies love the gardens too!

We've been very happy with Naturescapes who redid our landscaping. It feels like a whole new yard! It's very rare for the person who designs/does the estimate to personally show up and do the work, but that is John Fridy and his professional team. Great communication and attention to detail. Highly recommend.

After 20 years in our house it was time to rethink our landscaping and John and his great team did a wonderful job of giving us a makeover. He executed a plan which kept what made sense to keep, took out what was not and introduced new plants, shrubs, trees, rocks.and more, which have certainly improved the look and our enjoyment of the property. We couldn't be more pleased with the results and the friendly and professional way that John conducts his business. I couldn't recommend him more highly.

John and his crew were great. Very professional, efficient, and high quality work. This was our first landscaping project and we couldn't be happier. The front and side yards look beautiful. I highly recommend John and his team to anyone looking to transform their yards.

John created a beautiful landscape of natural plants all around my house that was a mix of color, texture and size, and a stunning pond in my back yard. The landscaping totally complemented my house. Once I saw his finished work, I realized that he is much more than a landscaper. John is a landscape architect who creates a beautiful, calming sense of place in the environments of all his clients. Once you see his work, you will never go back to a traditional landscaper.

We hired John Fridy and Naturescapes based on the amazing area he created about 8 years ago, at my parent's house in Devon. We had a shady, muddy, sloping side yard that wouldn't grow grass, causing rain water to flow into our neighbor's driveway. In addition, we had a "controlled wild" grove in our back yard that had a lot of tall tulip trees, but no texture or lower shrubbery.

On his first visit to our home, John walked our property and spoke with us about our concerns. He finished his visit spending time alone imagining our new gardens. On his second visit John presented us with a detailed proposal including color pictures of all the quality, native, deer resistant specimens. The project took 2 days with John and his team of 4 men, who arrived with a large dump truck as well as a front-end loader to bring in the awesome boulders.

We were both impressed with John's knowledge, creativity and work ethic as well as with his team. John not only saw my dreams and visions but had the ability to interpret them through nature. We can hardly wait for next Spring to see the bulbs filling in around the new growth, watching both areas blending into nature and creating more shelter for the woodland critters. Some may find a project like this expensive, but we feel we are investing in a beautiful future in our home. Sally and Tom

Our first landscape project with Naturescapes is now complete and we could not be happier! The design was professional while being flexible to meet our personal requests for minor changes! The team was prompt, polite and professional all while demonstrating good teamwork! We expect to do more business with Naturescapes in the near future! Thank you John for all of your thoughts and recommendations and pass our thanks to the team!

The neighbors were complimenting the work before John and his team were even finished! John came highly recommended, and then by coincidence a long time friend noted he had Naturescapes work done years ago which he still absolutely loves. Professional, quality work and beautiful result as well. I can't wit until spring!

We have a long-standing relationship with John Fridy and Naturescapes and it has been rewarding. In terms of both planning and execution, John and his crew have been creative and exacting. John's crew is reliable, cable, and courteous. No better performance could reasonably be expected. Our place looks great and Naturescapes gets the credit. Gene C.
