Our Boulder lot presented a design as well as a construction challenge. Greenacres not only worked precisely to the design, but they also made suggestions that enhanced the beauty of the landscaping or reduced the cost without compromising the quality. Any changes we wished to make as the construction progressed was accommodated with no difficulty and without the exorbitant cost sometimes associated with design changes.
The schedule was on time and subject only to the early spring weather. The final, as well as the daily, clean-up left the grounds safe during construction and immaculate at the conclusion.

This is our forth house in Boulder and we have undertaken a number of major interior and landscaping projects. While this was one of our larger projects, it was perhaps the easiest. The crew and the supervision were wonderful and the end result was even better than we imagined.

Greenacres is a truly professional organization which I would unconditionally recommend to anyone considering an extensive landscaping project.

Green Acres and Joel Hamm have provided excellent landscaping pricing and service both for our personal residence and several rental homes that we have.  Green Acres installed a flagstone patio, an irrigation system, and plants that transformed our backyard from a area that we rarely used to an area that we now use constantly for eating and entertaining outside.  Green Acres completely remodeled the landscaping of one rental home with very competitive pricing, an attractive design, and very good results.  Another rental home required reworking the irrigation system.  In all cases, Joel has been very responsive to our request for bids, performing the work, and following up to ensure that we were satisfied.  For all future landscaping work, we will not hesitate to employ Green Acres rather than evaluating other landscapers.

Hi Joel,
I wanted to write you to thank you for the beautiful job you did for us. Your crew was so fast, efficient, and so friendly to work with that I have referred you (Green Acres) to all of our friends!  I have to say that it is so refreshing to have a company like yours around when I have heard horror stories from friends about other companies. 
Thanks again, we love our yard!

Our home was built in the early 1970’s, with a front yard that was typical of those of that era: overgrown junipers and a patchy, unimaginative lawn. Our sprinkler system was an outdated “water-waster.” Joel and his staff at Green Acres came highly recommended to us, and we are fortunate to have found them. They literally transformed our aging front yard into a park, a place where we now enjoy spending time. They took care of everything, including:

  • the demolition and removal of our old landscape
  • new concrete porch and walkways
  • landscape rocks
  • a water-wise irrigation system
  • tree and shrub planting
  • new sod
  • flagstone patio and pathway
The Green Acres crews were hard-working and well-organized. They were polite, respectful and tidy, and always left the jobsite clean. They were on time each day and never cut any corners. They even did a few last-minute “extras” for us. The owner, Joel Hamm, was in close communication with us throughout the job, very accessible at all times. Our landscaping project was completed on time and to our exact specifications. All that, AND for a very reasonable price! We couldn’t be more pleased with the work that Green Acres Landscape has performed for us.

I chose Green Acres initially because the quality of their stone work was amazing, and just what I wanted.  I was pleased with their attention to other details and the willingness to work with my requests throughout the process. There is always someone available if I have questions or need help with maintenance, something you don't often find in this industry. Thanks.

I want to thank everyone at Green Acres, especially Kathy and her crew.  They not only finished our job in a timely manner, they were neat and so very accommodating.  At the end of each day and at the end of our job everything was left in beautiful shape.  Our yard was transformed from something very drab and full of rock to a lovily and inviting one.

Thank you for making my vision happen.

Sincerely,

Charla has formal education in botany and horticulture and 25 years gardening experience.  Paul is a professional engineer and also trained in horticulture.  That makes us pretty picky.   We met with seven landscape contractors, most of whom we deemed very competent.  After spending days traveling to see their work and talking to previous clients we settled on Green Acres.  We liked the attention to detail, particularly in the masonry, lawn and garden edging treatment.  The recommendations for soil amendment and irrigation methodology were state-of-the-art.

We are absolutely delighted with the result!  The plant material is thriving and the wall and patio work is better than what we see in magazines.  Neighbors stop by to get ideas for their own yards.  Even the construction phase went without a hitch.  The crews were courteous and personable.   We hated to see them go.

Please feel free to use us as a reference.

Green Acres did a fantastic job of transforming a neglected part of our backyard into a wonderful new outdoor living space.  The stone mason's hardscape detail was quite incredible.  They were very efficient and each day cleaned up before they left.  The overall experience with Joel and his team was very rewarding.   We look forward to enjoying our new retreat for many years to come.  We have plans for some additional xeriscaping and would definitely ask Joel and his team to do the work.
