We are thrilled with our in-ground lighting system designed and installed by Campbell and Ferrara. Thomas designed a beautiful layout, Allan provided insights based on his long experience, and Justin and his crew completed the installation in one day, taking great care working around our existing irrigation and drainage systems. We will definitely use the Campbell and Ferrara team for our future landscaping projects.

Chris Myers worked with me to design landscape improvements to meet both my budget and goal of increasing native plants. We had many discussions fine tuning the proposal and he was there each day of installation. When he was offsite the crew was friendly and focused. Can't wait for the spring to enjoy the results!

Campbell & Ferrara did AMAZING work transforming the landscape of my new house. It was a big project and the end-result is absolutely beautiful - front yard and backyard. It was such a pleasant experience working with everyone at this company from the very beginning to the very end. I will be a forever client. My designer Chris Czech totally got my vision and worked so collaboratively with me throughout the process. She is incredibly knowledgeable, professional and energetic. She made this project fun! Love her. The team that was here doing the work each day was exceptional too. They were so diligent and went over and beyond my expectations. I simply cannot say enough good things about my experience with Campbell & Ferrara. Great people, great company. The BEST!

We had let much of our yard go, and wanted to utilize our small back yard in a way that allowed us to enjoy it more. Thus, we decided to put in a patio. Chris Myers came up with a very nice design, and despite my trepidation regarding costs, we agreed since the concept he created was so lovely.They finished more quickly than I imagined, yesterday.The crew was fantastic, and we appreciate their hard work to implement Chris's design. It was amazing to watch the daily progress, and see how they creatively put the stone wall and patio together.I know we will enjoy this patio and landscaping for years, so it is all well worth the investment.

I visit the store when I need to drop off "overgrown" plants: succulents, air plants, string of hearts, etc. Thank You!

We hired Campbell Ferrara (through Chris Myers) for a major reconstruction of the deck, hardscaping, and lighting on the sides and back of our house. It was a large project that took several months but was completed on schedule (despite several expansions of the job by us) and with excellent work. This was also an especially tricky project because there is limited access to the sides and back of our house where the work was being done. Chris did a great job of communicating what was happening when and what decisions we needed to make, as well as managing subcontractors such as the electricians and deck company. And they were very flexible in accommodating several changes that we requested over the course of the project. We now have extremely high-quality flagstone paths surrounding the sides and back of the house, plus a great looking trex deck and new outdoor lighting throughout the property. Terrific work all around!

In July 2020 Chris Meyer met with me to discuss a tree installation and a walkway. Chris was knowledgeable, very helpful with suggestions, on time and communications were excellent. As a bonus Chris Is a nice person to do business with.I had a three foot x twenty five foot brick walkway installed within two days, and a Dogwood tree installed. Chris sent a sample of the brick color and design. The dogwood variety chosen was excellent for my space. There is an HOA where I live, Chris was patience throughout the approval process. The install crew was efficient, cleaned up and again, nice to work with.The dogwood tree looked to be struggling, Chris assured me the tree is fine after I sent photos. letting me know the tree is in shock. Once the tree is acclimated to its new surroundings all should be well. Hoping this is the case, but I believe if the tree doesn’t snap out of it Chris would make it right based on my experiences with Chris and Campbell & Ferrera.At this point my experience was positive, I would have Chris back for my next outdoor improvements without a doubt.Update: the DogWood tree is healthy and beautiful, Chris was right.2023 update- Chris again came out to do a Spring cleanup to include weed control and mulching. Now into August the weeds are at bay, mulch looking fresh.

Excellent experience from initial contact, to estimate/work order, to work execution, to final inspection/review! Had a townhouse backyard patio re-leveled and improved, with additional drainage installed, following some long term root and water “movement”. Found ways to efficiently reduce time and cost. No pressure, friendly and professional experience-would 100% recommend and use again!

Peter Rhine is excellent. First visit, he explained the best and most economical way to do pavers for the back patio. Work was scheduled and completed in time, including extra work that i requested while they were working on site.
