Real Stories, Real Results

"If you are looking for unique and creative designs, Creative Earth is your installer! Our family has worked with Sam for over eight years as we have continued to perfect our collective vision while adding beauty and value to our home. The backyard waterfall is our favorite refuge."

“Sam Carter is not just a landscaper, he is an artist that brings his work to life.”

Sam at Creative Earth landscaped our home, completely transforming the overall look. He added super unique plants and lighting. We couldn’t ask for anything better!

Sam Carter was able to help me turn my unusable back yard into the beginning of a peaceful respite. He was always available by phone and checked on the progress daily. When he said he or his team would be there, they were there and on time. I would highly recommend Creative Earth, Sam Carter and his team.

My job was small and had some issue finding a company that was competitive for a small amount of work. Sam and his crew were on time, professional and completed the work including clean up and fresh watering in half a day. Work included installing rock at walkway in place of mulch, adding perennials to patio and fence line, installing grass at fence gate to control erosion, and checked and set in place irrigation system that had not been turned on for 3 years. Price was competitive based on estimates received and Sam had the better recommendations for shrubs. I recommend Creative Earth for your landscaping needs and have added his company to our subdivision work list.
