Our state is rich in history, dating back to the early 1700s. The signature work of craftsmen who have come and gone can still be seen in the architecture, stonewalls, and landscape design all around our seacoast community. At Rye Beach Landscaping, our respect for the history and tradition of New Hampshire can be seen in the way that we do our work, with the patience and skill of the old world craftsman. Even our landscape materials are sourced from local suppliers; whether antique granite, fieldstone, or the trees and shrubs that we incorporate into our landscape designs.

My girlfriend and I couldn't be happier with our new wall and the yard work they did for us it truly came out fantastic. The crew was outstanding and the office really helped us out tremendously every step of the way, for we had never done this before and didn't know how to go about it. Highly recommend this company and My girlfriend and I will definitely continue to use them due to the quality of the work.

We are extremely pleased with Ben Groves landscape design. We had Ben design our entire yard after we had rebuilt our home. That was in 2013. Now, seven years later, our yard still looks great. We recently asked Ben to stop-by for a review. He gave us guidance on what should be pruned, thinned and a few changes to the total look. We highly recommend Ben Groves.

We have used Rye Beach Landscaping for 3 different landscaping/hardscaping projects over the years and have always been extremely happy with them! We have done a patio, drainage, gardens, major excavating for new lawn, etc. They have always followed through on our projects to find the best solutions to give us what we want and need. Each time they always spend lots of time planning the projects with us, walking the yard brainstorming ideas, answering all our questions until we have a plan.
Their eye for design is top notch, their crew is always on time, polite and professional! We have done our projects in two year phases and they work with us and our budget to make that happen. I highly recommend Rye Beach Landscaping to all our friends.

Don't waste your time contacting these people, because they will waste yours. They came to my home to do an estimate, but despite repeated attempts to contact them, they never followed up, never sent a quote and never called me back. To be honest, it's probably a good thing - if they're this unreliable before they start a project, would they be any better if they did the work?

I hired Rye Beach Landscaping to install trees on my property to help camouflage an unsightly hill in front of my house. They did an amazing job. From the design stage with Ben Groves to the installation stage with the Rye Beach team, I was pleased with their professionalism and workmanship. I love the finished result and would recommend them to anyone for a landscaping project.
