    Interlock replacement and repair

    Jovian Miller and his crew have once again exceeded our expectations with the interlock around the pool. They were hard working, on time and finished quickly. When the pool company came to do some repairs this spring, the interlock was damaged in sections and Jovian and Peter returned to repair their original work free of charge. Thank you again for the great work.

    New Walkway and Dining Pad

    Just save yourself the trouble searching and hire this company! Jovian and his crew were excellent. Where to begin... Initial consult with Jovian was great - he understood our idea and had some helpful suggestions. He told us we could expect them to begin in two weeks and they started in one. He arrived as a team of four guys, each one polite, friendly and hard-working. At previous homes we have used other contractors that we liked, but I've never seen such a cohesive crew with such a strong work ethic. Our home is five years old (we just moved in) and I was intent on matching the existing pavers. Turns out what we had was a hand-picked random mix and Jovian took the time and effort to replicate that mix! Also, one of the crew pointed out that we had some maintenance issues with the border of our driveway and our stone steps. For the modest price to make the repairs we were glad to give them the go-ahead. We expected the work would take more than a week, but with their team of four working long days, they finished in three days! Of course, I couldn't give this review without acknowledging their beautiful workmanship. Truly excellent work and wouldn't hesitate to recommend or hire them again!

    Stone steps and retaining walls

    We had to replace a long stretch of steps on the hilly side of our house as well as wooden retaining walls in our front garden. Big job. I wasn't sure what I wanted and was glad that Jovian Miller had ideas from the start. More importantly, we communicated ideas and photos on email, so we both knew we were on the same page. At one point he realized that our hill required more than interlocking stone, which he had first advised, and instead suggested formed steps to avoid shifting from the ground. We depended on his experience and were impressed with his and his crew's hard work. The outside of our house has been transformed. It's gorgeous!

    Thank you Sylvia for your kind response and review. Your home looks fantastic and it was a pleasure to meet you both. Have a wonderful spring, and enjoy the rest of your summer. Jovian

    Stone Patio and Walkway

    From the get-go we felt we could trust Jovian, and he did a great job. He has great workers on his team, and was on site through the entire process, and make sure everything was done right. We highly recommend Jovian and his team. We would hire them again without hesitation.

    Complete back yard renovation - stone patio and steps, stepping and gravel paths, irrigation, extensive planting and sod

    We hired Jovian Miller (Stone Landscaping) to clear our weed-choked back yard, and build a stone patio, lay out gravel paths, handle the planting of eight trees and an extensive perennial garden, re-sod the lawn, and upgrade, repair and extend the existing irrigation system. Our experience was very positive. Jovian quickly answered my initial request for a quote. The job started on time and was finished in the time scheduled. Jovian was flexible in handling small additions to our project (examples: a gate, posts for a trellis). Jovian and his crew are professional, courteous, and respectful. I appreciated that Jovian was at the site working along with his employees each day. If I had any questions in the evening, Jovian was easy to reach by e-mail. Each evening our property was left very clean. Our back yard has been transformed into a beautiful space faster than I would have thought possible.

    Answer from pro:

    Thank you for your kind response, you tested us on this project and it was fantastic to see the end results. Truley, thank you for your trust, and for choosing Stone Landscaping, we love what we do.

    Interlock patio and walkway

    I was in a bit of a hurry to get rid of the deck in my backyard due to wildlife issues. I had decided on an interlock alternative over concrete. So I started from the top on Homestars calling landscaping companies that service my area. Jovian Miller (owner) was the only one who returned my call within an hour or so. Some didn't respond for days, a couple I have never heard back from! And Jovian answered the call in a way that I knew I dialed the right number. Jovian was able to come out the very next day to see what needed to be done and to give me a quote. I found him to be very friendly, professional, honest, and forthright. He clearly knows his trade, and I had full confidence in his advice and work. He charged a fair price. Not the cheapest, and I would think not the most expensive (I can't say for sure about expensive though, as no one else responded to my calls!). He understood my circumstances, and I believe he moved some schedules around and stuck to his committment once we agreed to the work. He worked most of the time with his crew. I have to say, they worked tirelessly. Having ripped out the deck myself in the hot sun, I can tell you Jovian and his crew earned every penny for those three days. The work was done in three days, and it looks fantastic. I didn't really go out to enjoy the sun on my deck, partly because of the wildlife fears. I find I'm going out much more, enjoying my beautiful patio and walkway. Jovian also did some repairs to existing stonework that had settled over the years, and moved existing concrete slabs over to the other side of the house. The repairs he included in the quote, and moving the slabs was done for a very reasonable extra fee. The crew cleaned up after they left, and you would never know that they were there working away. I liked that they respected my existing lawn. Overall, a great experience. I was nervous getting this done, as this was my first time getting interlocking done. I've read about proper grading and making sure water flows away from the house. Stone Landscaping definitely knows what they are doing, and I'm very happy that they did the work I asked them to!

    Answer from pro:

    Thank you for taking time to write this great review. I hope you enjoy the new patio and it was a pleasure to work with you.
