Debbie B.

"Tony and his crew did a fantastic job transforming by backyard into a beautiful place to relax and unwind. From the consultation and the landscape design to installation and the final result, Tony and his team were easy to work with, very responsive and professional. The crew was on time, polite and incredibly fast! I went to work one morning with a very boring backyard and came home a few hours later to a beautifully landscaped yard! Highly recommend!!"

Siedah H.

"I truly enjoyed my experience with Fresh Start Outdoors. They’ve exceeded my expectations. I was in search of contractors for a retaining wall project because of the erosion in my yard that left a gaping hole. They filled in the hole and now I have a two-tier, beautiful retaining wall. Now I can’t wait until it rains to try it out. They cleaned up each day after themselves and even collected my trash reciprocals and put them in their place on trash day. Would definitely recommend"

Carrie S.

"We are so pleased with our retaining wall! Everyone was so professional and the experience was great and at a fair price!"

Donna B.

"I had Fresh Start  landscaping do a large job in my front and backyard this week. The young men did an exceptional job cleaning up all the areas of landscaping, mulching, trimming trees and bushes and cleaned up meticulously after they finished. I have used them for many years and will continue as long as I have a home. Last year they put steps in and landscaped the areas on both sides of the steps.  About 10 years ago, I had  them landscape the front and backyard. It looks beautiful. The employees are respectful, grateful and hard working."

Donna W.

"Amazing job. Fresh Start Outdoors was recommended to me by a contractor friend. I'm so glad! My two doodles had pretty much destroyed my backyard - just a muddy mess, full of huge puddles!  I sent an inquiry via their website, Tony contacted me the same day. Tony came out, looked at my issues, really listened to my concerns and offered several suggestions.  We discussed a plan and I received a proposal within a day or so. He started work as soon as weather allowed. I'm so pleased with the results. Tony and his team did a phenomenal job. Very responsive. Highly recommend."

Katie K.

"Tony has been our go to for everything landscaping for several years. Him and his amazing team provide great recommendations, really long lasting results and are always a pleasure to work with! I’ve recommended him to neighbors and friends and everyone is really appreciative of the referral. He’s put in and moved trees, rebuilt a wall, extended our yard, put in raised beds, moved fences, helped with weeds - you name it!"

Julie P.

"Cody and Justin rebuilt two stone walls, planted new shrubs, and mulched the yard. Tony was very helpful in choosing the new plantings. The boys went above and beyond. They were very considerate in every way. We couldn't be more pleased with the results. We would highly recommend."

Viki D.

"Being that our house is 35 years old we needed some major stone wall work, landscaping and a new patio put in. Fresh Start went way beyond all expectations at our house! After my 94 year old father saw the work Tony did here he hired him immediately. Tony was wonderful in working within my dad’s budget, while giving him some great ideas in landscaping. Everything looks magnificent!!!"

"I highly recommend Fresh Start Outdoors ("FSO") for all of your landscaping needs!  Five stars!  FSO created retaining walls around  two (2) trees in my front yard.  They are perfect and look absolutely beautiful.  I could not be happier with the finished product.  Tony Teoli and his team are wonderful to work with, are very professional, and provide an exceptional work product!  They definitely take great pride in their work.  Thank you, thank you, I love my retaining walls!!!"

"Justin came out and removed all the brush that had collected over the years in our backyard. He even neatly stacked the firewood!! He raked all of the leaves from our front yard tree. So many leaves!!!. It made our front and backyard look so much cleaner. I am looking forward to the spring and adding beauty to my very neglected yard. It is great to finally have experts!"

After the work was complete, Tony followed up with us and ensured that we were happy with it. We highly recommend them."
