Curved beds edged in stone follow the back and side of the house.

A row of evergreens along the fence will grow into a privacy screen.

The plan was drawn as a planting plan first, so every plant has its place.

Designed in 3D before we built it

The homeowner saw this yard as a 3D rendering of their own property, and we revised it with them before any work started.

“The communication from beginning to end was excellent and much appreciated.”

RK Preferred did an amazing job transforming my backyard. The sod and stone installation was exactly what I wanted. The guys were very professional and cleaned up after all work was completed. The communication from beginning to end was excellent and much appreciated. I would highly recommend RK Preferred and will absolutely use them again.

“The design team helped us create the backyard we could only imagine.”

Working with RK Landscaping was smooth and effortless. The design team helped us create the backyard we could only imagine. Once the project started, Hardy, Paulo and Marcelo did a great job of being timely and tidy. We are completely enjoying the transformation.

“He was friendly and spent time in my yard with me, discussing observations and options.”

Our French drain project was completed yesterday and we couldn’t be happier with RK Preferred. Rob was quick to respond to my initial quote request. He was friendly and spent time in my yard with me, discussing observations and options. Hardy was great with communication, including when rain pushed our project back. The two guys who did our work were friendly, informative, and careful.

We highly recommend RK! They were very professional and did great work! We had a back patio installed with full landscaping in both our front and back yard. It was beautiful! Thanks so much Rob, Hardy & crew!

Rob works with you to make sure your objectives are well understood (and even offers good suggestions). The costs are clearly articulated ahead of the job. Workers are on time and respectful. The quality of the final product is excellent. Highly recommend. Will use again.
