“John was great. I had no idea where to start with remodeling the landscaping and hardscaping in front of my house. But John hand-drew a comprehensive plan and gave a fair price. His team was very professional and very efficient. Shrubs are guaranteed for a year! Can’t beat that! John is also known to follow up with his customers year after year to continue to make sure they are satisfied. Will certainly keep John in mind for future hard-scaping work!”

“We have worked with John Starkie twice. Once he did our landscaping in our front yard, and the second time we hired him to do a huge masonry job in our backyard and driveway. He responds the same day, always- within an hour. John is brilliant. Genius designer. He was present on our job multiple times a day for the duration. He is meticulous. His men are meticulous and worked 10 hours a day to get the job done in time for a party. Our yard is beyond gorgeous- cars stop often to look in and see the work. Bravo to John and his team. Would hire again and again for everything!”

“The service was excellent! We are very happy with the outcome. Starkie brothers gave our front yard a beautiful high end curb appeal that will last. We love our new driveway, pavers, and landscaping. Thank you!”

“This was our 1st experience with Mr. Starkie, and we had a wonderful experience. John came to our house with paper, pen and tools to design a layout of what he envisioned for our house. It was 100% perfect and to the tee to what we were looking for. His men worked hard and was always neat and meticulous in what they did. They were a joy to work with if we needed anything else and very quick to take care of those things. John was always on-site to check on the work and to always keep my wife and I informed on what was being done. Great job to Starkie Brothers and looking forward to working with them again in the future. I will definitely recommend.”

“Excellent job in all areas. The finished look is beautiful. Tree selection was great. Layout of plants is really pretty. Professional job all around! I would highly recommend this company and will use them again.”

“I am so happy I could cry. I'm over the moon with the phenomenal mason walking path and garden landscaping job that John Starkie and his crew did for our home. It was an amazing transformation for our front yard. They were professional, hardworking, and dedicated to completing the job in an efficient and timely manner; it only took two days. I highly recommend their services!“

“We hired Starkie Landscaping Design to create a patio space for a hot tub. Mr. Starkie created an amazing area that exceeded our expectations. He is hands on throughout the entire process and his level of communication is excellent. The crew that completed the job was outstanding. These men are hard workers, meticulous and always made sure all areas were clean before they left for the day. As we are new homeowners, Mr. Starkie was able to provide us with recommendations for other specialists that were needed after the job such as irrigation and electricity. Even after the project was completed, Mr. Starkie came back to check in on our plants as we were nervous about the heat wave. He truly cares about his customers and takes pride in his work. I would highly recommend Starkie Brothers to any of my family and friends. “

“John is a joy to work with. He is knowledgeable, pleasant and hard working. He has a great sense of landscape design. His team is skilled, pleasant, and very talented. I plan on doing more projects with them.”

“From the outset, we were impressed by Starkie Brothers' professionalism. First of all, a live person actually answered their business phone and, on the spot, set up an appointment for a consultation and estimate. The woman we spoke with was polite, warm and competent. John Starkie came out to our house several days later, listened to our wish list, surveyed the area and wrote up a detailed estimate. Mr. Starkie is a personable fellow but more importantly, he is a straight shooter. We liked him from the beginning and our instincts were proven to be correct. He wrote up our estimate on a Friday, by the following Tuesday our project was complete. He organized and coordinated everything: the scheduling of the cement mixer and the power washer to interface with his own technicians and move the project along most efficiently. It was a pleasure working with Starkie Brothers. We've already recommended them to several of our neighbors who've complimented the work we had done and we fully intend to employ their services in the future.”

“Outstanding work. John Starkie is a genius. Hard working professional with an artistic touch in landscape design. Turned my dump of a backyard with a crumbling patio into a work of art.”

John T.

“I love my backyard! John Starkie drew up the landscape design plans and kept me informed before, during and after planting. All work was completed in only 2 days including a repair to my patio pavers. He is passionate and educated about what he does and makes sure you know how to maintain your landscape. Johns crew removed a tree stump for free just to improve the look of the project. All work exceeded my expectation!!!”
