This was the first year that we have used Deans as our preferred landscaping company here at Crew Carwash. I have been very impressed with their customer service and their overall quality for landscaping and snow removal. Keep up the great work!

I am very happy with my experience with Dean's. They helped me very quickly get a quote, order my pool, and did the installation as promised. The crew were all very hardworking and did an amazing job on not only the pool but the hardscaping we had done. I look forward for Dean's to come back in the Spring to help us with our lawn refresh. Due to the time of year we had our pool installed, they balanced the pool before closing so we could do one swim with our kids before the winter temperatures set in. Thanks Deans!
We are very happy with the work performed by Dean's Pools and Landscaping. We hired them earlier this year to seed our backyard which had no grass. The yard turned out great, and our neighbors were very complementary of the lawn once the grass came in. We are also happy with the gutter downspouts that were buried as part of the project. While we had to have Dean's come back to move them due to city requirements, the team corrected the work immediately and we had no additional issues. We will definitely keep Dean's in mind for any future projects we may have.
Their employees are the ones that are good at putting a Pool in, But they are horrible to their doordashers they will make 3 and 400 dollar grocery bills, that I actually have to shop for and scan every item and weigh all produce and type all the weights in, it's a process and usually takes me over 2 hours to be able to complete and they NEVER tip not even once!!! Only really crappy people do that, Usually people with money that doesn't care about People in the service Industry!!
We had Dean’s install our in ground pool and landscape the area when the pool was finished. Did a great job on the pool install and the surrounding landscaping. Have also used them for opening and closing our pool. Have never been disappointed in their work or their pricing. Would recommend them wholeheartedly.
Project Outcome: How did the project meet your expectations?
I was very pleased with the outcome. The team met my expectations for the project & even exceeded some.
Concerns: Are there any concerns or issues you would like to discuss?
My only issue was with the size of the Blackhawk Bluestem grasses ordered. They came as 1-gallon pots.
I take responsibility for not verifying the size of the containers.
For the price, I'd expected larger 5-gallon plants. Shopping at 2 different garden centers had shown me the larger size for roughly half the price Deans charged, allowing some of the charge forpaying Dean's to plant them.
Team Feedback: Do you have any comments or feedback for our team members who worked on your project?
I was very happy with everyone at Deans, starting with Bri who listened to my requests & provided a plan to fit my budget.
Team members, working under Dominick's supervision, did an amazing job of transforming 2 huge piles of woodchips into a neat border for 3 sides of my 60x120 arena & moving composted black dirt to create a new flowerbed in front of the house.
I'm hoping to have Dean's back in the Spring to add some colorful perennials to that bed.
I would 100% recommend Dean's if asked for the name of a landscaper.

Thank you so much for your feedback and your business. We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review on your experience!
Brianna Shaw was very helpful and came up with a plan for our landscaping needs. She was prompt and professional and we recommend her! The team removed some roots and deck parts we could not do. They also cleaned up an area where a tree was removed and re-seeded with a nice base of better soil.

Thank you for your great review, Deb! We appreciate your business.
We recently collaborated with Dean’s Lawn & Landscaping to completely redesign our backyard. The results exceeded our expectations. The project was extensive, involving the demolition of two wooden decks, which were replaced with a composite deck, Granika steps leading to the kitchen, a larger rectangular pool, an outdoor kitchen, a new gazebo, and the installation of stained-stamped concrete.
Our project involved redesigning the landscaping around our entire home by removing an existing planter. Using Chilton Weathered Edge stone and American Heritage rocks.
From start to finish, the team demonstrated professionalism, excellent craftsmanship, and top-tier customer service. Brianna Shaw took over our order from a previous salesperson, and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was engaging, thoughtful, knowledgeable, supportive, and incredibly patient throughout the entire process.
We also want to acknowledge Juan, who played an essential role with the pool, and Jobis, the project manager, who was consistently on-site, answering our questions and ensuring every detail was completed with excellence. The president, Dean Savarino, even reached out personally via email to confirm that our needs were being met—a gesture that speaks volumes about the company’s commitment to its clients.
What truly stood out was their communication. We received daily texts, emails, and virtual meetings that kept us fully informed and reassured every step of the way. This level of attentiveness gave us peace of mind and ensured the project stayed on track.
We are thrilled with our backyard transformation and highly recommend Dean’s Lawn & Landscaping to anyone seeking a company that delivers high-quality work with exceptional service.

Not terrible but definitely some disconnect between the pool guys and landscapers. Seems like they don't agree on much

Thank you for your lovely review of our space, Rebecca!
My compliments to Eric Tharp and his crew members Jr. and Andreas on a successful pool fill-in of our former above ground, 30 round with a 5-1/2 ft depth to a center drain. We appreciate various aspects of their work, like the placing of the plywood panels to prevent damage to our grass as when bring in the dirt fill, the clean-up, the overall look of the reseeded lawn area. We are very happy initially with the end results. There was a minor issue when weeds started coming up during the reseeding as their dirt supplier provided contaminated soil. Dean’s to their credit stepped up to the plate and corrected the problem in a professional manner and to my satisfaction. I would recommend them for your next project.

Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we truly appreciate your feedback! Thank you for trusting Dean's Pools and Landscaping with your project!
We’re absolutely thrilled with the work Dean’s Pool & Landscaping did in our entire backyard! After years of dealing with no-shows and unresponsive landscapers considering it was high & expensive project that we were ready to move foward with, we met the Dean’s team at a home show—and they delivered. Bri designed a plan that brought our vision to life, and Jobe and his crew worked tirelessly, even in 90-degree heat. We couldn’t be happier with the results. Professional, dependable, and talented they are highly recommend!
