2024 Edit** We never heard back from this company and Grandma ended up passing away. They took her money and ran with it leaving this absolutely crap job. It broke her heart. They have the nerve to leave snotty responses on their other reviews and never got back to us. Ya'll truly suck.

8 Months later and STILL NO REPLY FROM THIS BUSINESS AND I SEE THEM ANSWERING OTHER PEOPLE ON HERE!!!!
HORRIBLE! First I want to say a couple things: This review is our last resort after trying to get them to make this right!!! We hired them a couple months ago (I want to say around June?) to install some sod in this corner of Grandma's yard where she used to have a garden. She is 89 years old with dementia and could no longer care for her garden. She is also the one who paid for it, so great job of taking advantage of a little old lady guys.
Now. Here's what happened: They installed the new sod.
After a short amount of time we noticed it was brown because the sprinkler they installed wasn’t working right. The sprinkler head looked old and most importantly, didn't reach where it’s supposed to, so the sod THEY INSTALLED was turning brown! At some point, whether it was on the phone or in person, Richard stated that he would replace the sod. Richard met my Mother there, at Grandma's, to take a look.
After meeting in person, he sent his guys, who ended up just replacing the sprinkler and told us that they wouldn't replace the sod, having a good sprinkler will be enough.
Well, it's not, it's STILL BROWN and Richard has now outright refused to replace the sod.
IT'S LITERALLY JUST A SMALL CORNER TOO.
So it still looks like crap, and we have our poor Grandma calling us every single day asking when they are coming to fix it. Like I said, she has dementia, and we have tried to explain the situation.
I cannot even explain the amount of stress this has put on her. Her yard is her baby. It was hard enough for her to give up the garden. She cannot drive and spends all of her time here.
HOPEFULLY this company will see this review and make this right. We are absolutely disgusted.

Thomas and Richard were extremely polite and showed up on time for a consultation. What impressed me most, was they were honest and told me what I asked them to come out for (an outside French drain) wasn’t necessary. They could have gone ahead with a bid and done the work, but instead they spared me from spending on something that wasn’t going to fix my problem. I really value the honesty and will definitely call them for other landscaping needs.

Bytendorp was great to work with. The entire team was courteous and professional. They worked quickly to install a sprinkler system in our backyard, power rake, and put down a new layer of top soil. Our sprinkler box flooded 2 days after install but I actually like it when something small goes awry on a project. It gave us a chance to see how well and how quickly they resolved the issue. You can trust that these guys will do it right and if they don't, they will work fast to fix it. It's refreshing to see that kind of accountability. Over-all great experience.

We used Bytendorp Landscaping to replace our watering system from sprinklers to drip irrigation. It was a big job that involved working in and around existing trees, bushes, and different elevations throughout the yard. They did a terrific job. Their work was professional and well executed. They communicated with us frequently, keeping us informed of their progress and any obstacles along the way. We were impressed by how well they worked as a team in completing the project on time and on budget. We were happy to have a watering system that saved us money and was maintenance free throughout the summer.

We also used Bytendorp for their landscaping services. We had them dig up our lawn and replace it with drought-resistant plants. We appreciated their suggestions on the best plants to use and recommended color arrangements. They did the actual planting, and the result has been beautiful, with minimal follow-up care.

We highly recommend Bytendorp.

We recently completed a full landscape remodel with Bytendorp Enterprises. This was extensive with excavation, retaining, lots of hardscape, extensive plantings, and sprinklers. From bid to work to handling changes Richard and his crew were top notch. The bid was competitive but, the real value is the professionalism of company and its workers. We have done a number of large projects over the years and Bytendorp is one of the best contractors we have worked with to date. They accommodated our changes happily and provided many suggestions to help the project come together. The finished product is better than we could have hoped and we get a constant stream of complements from neighbors including some now doing or considering projects with Bytendorp themselves. I would not hesitate to recommend them highly to family or friends.

Richard and his team did an absolutely amazing job on my backyard project which included an irrigation system, sod and a 6ft white vinyl fence. Richard was always available to me even when I pestered him with random newbie questions about caring for my new sod. I plan on using his services again next year for my front yard project. If you want a seamless experience with beautiful results and to not have to manage multiple contractors yourself, go with Bytendorp as they can do it all and will do it all well 🙂

RUN from this company!! As you can see from many other reviews, we aren't the only ones that feel this way. Extremely rude, absolutely horrible communication, it took months for them to start our project and we constantly had to reach out to Richard, often with no reply asking about updates about our project. Every little thing he can blame on the customers he will. We put in a new mailbox the day before they started and the son ran it over with a tractor and tried hiding the fact that he did. They tried putting it back together and coloring it with a sharpie. His son proceeded to say "if it was my house I wouldn't care" about our new mailbox we just put in. I expressed our frustrations to his son and told him we didn't listen to all the bad reviews and he proceeds to tell me "we have no bad reviews, look at KSL"
These people need to treat people better in general. The work they did was absolutely horrible. They did not fill our parking strip with enough rock, and as others have said, the new sod did not come in in many places and 95% of the grass is weeds. They charge you for way more sod than is needed and instead of giving it to the paying customer, they give it away to their workers. They are overpriced compared to other companies. They do not take criticism and will turn their back on their customers so fast. Will never recommend to anyone. Worst experience and we will have to redo the sod this coming summer.
