Leisure Landscapes has been maintaining my front and back yard for years now. They do an awesome job and I've got no complaints. They put a sprinkler system in a couple of years ago that saved me hours every week of having to self water my new lawn. Great team of lawn maintenance pros.

The whole project turned out beautifully and looked just as we had hoped. Paul Martin, the owner, was courteous and charming when he came to gather info for the estimate, which came back promptly. The negotiations over price were very professional and courteous. Paul was very knowledgeable and helpful with suggestions for design and materials, all of which we turned out to be very good advice. He came by several times to check on the progress of the project. The two men who did the actual work were very hard working and always showed up as they promised. They worked cheerfully in spite of the terrible heat, and worked as long as they needed to be sure the project finished in a timely way. They seemed to be of fine character, very dependable, with an extraordinary work ethic. I would use Leisure Landscaping again without hesitation.

We were with another lawn care firm for several years before coming over to Leisure Landscapes and have been glad we did. They take excellent care of our house in Durham and are now starting to maintain our commercial property in Raleigh. They're affordable and very easy to work with, unlike other commercial landscaping services in Raleigh, NC.

We are very happy with the end product. Price was much better than other quotes. We had some start-up delays, otherwise I would give them 5 stars.

This is our 3rd or 4th time using Leisure Landscapes. Paul Martin is a truly talented landscape designer and their team does incredible work. The first time we used them we had retaining walls, patio, modifications to a deck, flower beds and plantings, etc. done. We then later used them for all our lawn maintenance while we were out of town for 6 months. Now, we are using them to do the landscaping for our new house as well. Great work!
