Annette and John B. Rye, NY

In 2007, we hired Ambrosio to implement an extensive landscaping and hardscaping project for our new house.

The project included a new front walk and steps, two stone pillars with bluestone caps and inset lighting, a 1600sf flagstone pool patio, a 500sf rear yard patio with BBQ recess, matching flagstone walkways throughout the property, an in-ground spa surround and patio (including a ‘hidden’ access pit for mechanicals), a stone retaining wall, a stepping stone path to the back shed, a new asphalt courtyard and driveway with Belgian block curbs, a new sod lawn, the planting of several large evergreens, the preparation of all the flower beds and the installation of perennial plants throughout the property. In addition, Ambrosio re-graded the whole property, installed catch basins and drainage pipes and lay electrical sleeves for an outdoor sound system and lighting.

Kevin Ambrosio was involved in the project from start to finish. He was on site every day, supervising the work and making sure everything ran smoothly. He personally oversaw the selection of all the stone and plant materials, advising us on the options and ensuring the very best quality. Kevin was responsive to our needs, came up with creative solutions to problems that arose, kept the project on time and in budget and was generally a pleasure to work with. The crew was also wonderful. They worked tirelessly every day. They were punctual and neat and friendly. And they were highly skilled, creating beautiful stonework and taking care to plant everything correctly. Ambrosio were totally professional and the quality of their work surpassed all expectations. We would recommend them without hesitation.
