Client Testimonials

What Our Clients Say About Working With Us

Jeffrey Bramer

We scheduled a design appointment and shared our vision. Phillip understood what we wanted. We reviewed the contract and made sure we were in agreement.

Haley Peterson

We are incredibly pleased with the work Phillip and his crew did in our backyard! They expertly addressed our erosion and drainage issues by installing a French drain and a retaining wall that spans the width of our property. Communication was seamless, and Phillip was very flexible with changes and additions to the scope of work throughout the project.

William Sowers

Phil and the crew filled in my old pool and replaced it with a paver patio with a fire pit. They were very quick, very communicative, and the work was exactly what we needed. He was respectful of my budget and did not disappoint for the amount of work. We had a really great experience on this project.

Mark

Southern Touch Landscaping did a fantastic job from beginning to end on our driveway extension. They were on time, very professional, and we are very happy with how it looks. I highly recommend.

Seth Stevens

Phillip & his team were just as advertised with the below reviews - punctual, professional, courteous and hard working. Removed old grass and grated, laid new sod, updated a mailbox flowerbed, trimmed trees and much more. Will definitely reach out for future endeavors!

Diane Inks

These guys did a great job cleaning up an overgrown area in my yard. I have hired them several times before and I can always trust that they will do what they say they can do. I highly recommend them.

Jackson Morrissey

I couldn’t recommend Phillip and his crew more! They helped us with some storm/gutter drain issues by rerouting them away from our basement/crawl space. They left our yard better than the way they found it! We will definitely use them again when we are ready for more projects!

Ed

Leland Cypress trees were removed and replaced by Nellie R Stevens Holly for a sound and privacy barrier. Driveway entrance was landscaped to add a nice rock bed and they trimmed out front boxwood bushes that hadn't had a haircut for a very long time. They were professional, prompt, and made some excellent recommendations that improved what I had originally requested.

Debbie Overly

Philip did excellent work building our outdoor seating area fixing drainage and other problems in our small backyard. We love being able to enjoy the outside! He is prompt, professional, and finished the job in a very timely manner. We would definitely use him again.

Jean Munson

We are so happy with the job that Southern Touch Landscaping did on our yard! Tree stump removal, site prep and a French drain were followed by the installation of new sod. Philip and his assistant Aidan were hardworking and professional and not only got the job done on time, but started and finished early. Will definitely call them for the next project!

Justin Withers

We hired this company to install a vinyl chain link fence around our backyard and they did a phenomenal job! It was a difficult install with the fence near a lot of ornamental plants, and somehow they still managed to install it perfectly with no damage to the landscaping. Their pricing was very reasonable, and the work they did could not have been better. Extremely pleased with how it turned out. Will definitely be calling them again next time I have any type of landscaping job.

Andy Arnold
