Doing a backyard remodel isn't a walk in the park - especially if you want to turn it into one. After installing a pool with a patio, I met with John in the fall for a project that would begin in the spring. He insists on a design rendering which other landscapers I met with did not. At first I was unsure of this extra step, but ultimately I realized it made the most sense since he was able to show me exactly how it would look when done.

And as soon as I got the drawings, I was super excited because I could truly visualize how it would look and what plants would go where. It's also much easier to have a review process this way should one wish to make any changes well before the work begins. He said he could have the job done in about 3 weeks before Memorial Day and he delivered on his promise - 3 weeks early in fact.

When the work began, John was practically always on-site with his team, using a bunch of heavy machinery with finesse and transformed all of the dead space around the finished pool into a lush oasis for the daytime and a fully lit-up outdoor gathering space for the evenings. The entire backyard looks spectacular. As with any project, there were a few hiccups along the way but John always found a way to solve them (and quickly). And, most importantly, John is a communicator - always there when you need him on the phone and you deal with him directly which is rare and so makes things so much easier. You get what you pay for and John's Natural Concepts is the real deal. Use him with confidence to give you the landscaping of your dreams.

John and his team recently completed demo and installation of over 20 steps leading up to our house from the driveway (including installation of various placed landings), reconstruction/restoration of our front porch, and installation of path lightning. It was a pleasure working with John throughout the design & planning process, and more often than not we relied on John's recommendations and "vision" for the design of the project; we pretty much made color selection and John handled it from there.

Once demolition started, the project took about 2 weeks from start to finish, and John stopped by a couple of days after the project to make sure we were happy with the end result. Once completed, we were thrilled with the end result, we highly recommend John for anyone looking for a professionally designed and installed landscaping project!

The walkway and steps to our house were falling apart. Natural Concepts Landscaping, LLC was recommended to me by a friend. I am so grateful for that recommendation. I don't have much of an imagination so I left it to John to design the walkway. What I expected to be a plain vanilla straight walkway turned out to be a lovely path to our door-step.

I'm sure it increased my property value :. Recently, I contracted John to replace a portion of my backyard where the grass would not grow with pavers. That was another lovely creation of his. I am a repeat customer. Need I say more?

John and his crew did an amazing job transforming my old walkway and Patio into something truly beautiful. From planning to the finished product there were challenges along the way with product availability being at the top with shortages everywhere. John tirelessly kept tracking down the material that we needed to complete the job. And for that we are thankful. Thanks again for the beautiful job that exceeded our expectations. Looking forward to new landscaping and working with you on the next project.

John and crew installed a blue stone patio at our local Vernon business. We were beyond satisfied with his work and the professionalism of his team. After the job was complete and we had a question he returned and spoke to us in person. Our clientele compliment the new area regularly and we now have a beautiful space for guests to enjoy. We are very happy we chose Natural Concepts Landscaping for the job!

John from Natural Concepts and his crew do outstanding and meticulous work. It is definitely worth it to hire such professionals who bring their clients visions to reality. There was much communication about material choices and availability and great advice on what can and cannot be accomplished. Throughout the process they were flexible in arranging the finished landscape in the best way possible as the inevitable challenges presented themselves. Five star service performed by a real artist in landscape design!

John and his team just finished creating a large and inviting outdoor patio with fire pit and sitting wall at my home. They transformed an almost useless outdoor area into a welcoming outdoor living area. John delivered what he promised, arrived nice and early in the morning with his team made very noticeable progress every single day. With a backyard that is not easily accessible, they carefully navigated all material around the house countless times, all the while doing their best not to make more of a mess than was necessary.

They laid top soil, graded, and seeded all the tracks before completing the job so come spring the grass will look great again. I would absolutely recommend Natural Concepts to anyone looking to remodel their yard.

John and his crew at Natural Concepts installed a beautiful stone patio at my home last year and it has become the family's favorite place to hang out. He outlined the job clearly and kept me updated through out the entire process. He was able to help us create our vision while also keeping it cost effective. This year he will be back completing our pool surround to match and we are so excited to see the finished product!

Amazing job by Natural Concepts. John and his crew worked non stop on our walkway/porch/landscape and lighting. Paid attention to every detail and kept me informed along the way. It was easy to work with John and he had good recommendations. We are so happy with the results. They will no doubt get another call when it's time to do our patio.

This review is long overdue. We hired Natural Concepts Landscaping to rip out and redesign our existing front walk and to build a patio to extend our outdoor living space off of our deck in our backyard. Never in a million years did we expect the outcome. We me/spoke with John, the owner, several times and also took a field trip with him to his supplier to check out the suggested materials. John's vision was spot on.

In the following weeks, John and his team worked hard to complete both projects; battling torrential downpours and unbearable heat and humidity. They started with our backyard, which was completely transformed from an awkward slope of nothing into a space we never imagined. Huge steps now lead the way up from our deck to a beautiful patio with an amazing smokeless firepit.

Several retaining walls were added and another set of steps that lead up to our horseshoe pits. They planted decorative grass, hydrangeas, Japanese Maple, perennials, and added mulch and river rock to decorate the area. It's simply amazing! Our front walkway was widened with the addition of a landing area and a low retaining wall. Japanese Holly, Hydrangeas and several other shrubs accent the mulch filled the beds.

It looks gorgeous. We can't begin to thank John, Daniel, Zach and Will enough for all of their hard work. They are professional, knowledgeable, polite and extremely hard workers. John is straight forward and fair. There were never any surprises regarding costs. He kept the communication flowing throughout both projects where we were always in the know.

We would work with them again in a heartbeat. If you're looking for a team to create the hardscape of your dreams, give Natural Concepts Landscaping a call. They will not disappoint!

We have had several projects completed by Natural Concepts Landscaping over the last few years, and we have never been disappointed. We have had an under deck patio and tiered retaining wall garden with steps up to our existing pool designed and installed by Natural Concepts. When we had our home vinyl sided and wanted a stone veneer front and new front porch, Natural Concepts answered the call.

Most recently, a raised extension to the original under deck patio with stone seating and fire pit were completed The work is seamless and you would never know that the raised extension to the patio was not part of the original work. John is passionate about his designs and explains the why's behind all his suggestions. His creativity and designs are as amazing as his attention to detail.
