    Architerra handled a landscape clean-up for me, and the results were excellent. Everything looks neat, fresh and cared for. The team is professional, friendly and pays attention to detail. They also keep my lawn healthy and well-maintained. Highly recommend!

    We have used Architerra for the last 11 years to make many beautiful enhancements to our property and landscaping in addition to weekly lawn maintenance and winter snow removal. Tracey and her crew are knowledgeable, professional, hardworking and trustworthy. We have recommended Architerra to others with confidence that they will be just as pleased as we have been with their services.

    My church started using Architerra in Oct. 2023 when our other landscaping contract expired. It was a great decision! In the winter, they did an excellent job keeping our parking lot plowed and well salted. They really stayed on top of it! They tracked the winter weather systems, and sent out regular, detailed emails about the winter weather and their plans for plowing and salting. These emails were incredibly helpful. Usually winter is stressful for us, but Architerra brought a welcome relief. Lucy (the owner) and her team are very knowledgeable. They’ve been doing this for literally decades! Her team has been doing a great job mowing the lawns, pruning the plants, and keeping our grounds looking nice. She also had great suggestions on how to improve our grounds using the plants and flowers we currently have. Since I oversee the care of the church grounds and landscaping, I am the one who interacts with Architerra. The staff has been great to work with. I especially like that on our online account, they list every single time they plow and salt, including what time they came and how long it took. This is extremely helpful to me because I need to keep the church leadership informed of costs. Also, their prices seem very reasonable to us, which is important to us as a non-profit organization.
