I recently contacted Kitching&Co. to quote a complete overhaul on my backyard landscaping. Blake was super responsive and professional and came out to assess the job quickly. Pricing was fair and they weren’t pushy at all and willing to work with whatever requests I had. I highly recommend giving them a call for any job you have big or small. Looking forward to working with them.
