  I hired Rockaway for an extensive drainage project to address standing water issues against my house. The team installed french drains, buried downspouts, re-graded the yard, and created a comprehensive drain field over 3 solid days of work. The results are remarkable - no more standing water problems despite the challenging slope and limited surface area between my house, neighbor's roofline, and concrete patio. Mike, the project foreman, was exceptional. His work ethic and communication were outstanding, and he truly approached the project with the mindset of making my property into my dream property. When I expressed concerns about crushed granite size, he was willing to pause work to address my concerns, but ultimately helped me understand why their recommendation was the right choice. When the team unexpectedly discovered a buried fuel oil tank I didn't even know existed, they quickly adapted their plan and reworked the drain field solution without missing a beat. Daniel from sales was responsive, attentive, and accommodating throughout the process. He listened carefully to my needs and promptly addressed all questions via calls and emails. Dan Messer and his irrigation team went above and beyond to address all the quirks in my irrigation system, ensuring my new sod would thrive. The entire crew maintained top-notch professionalism - arriving on time, keeping the worksite clean, and showing complete respect for my property. I see the difference in my yard every day and couldn't be happier with Rockaway's work. Highly recommend them for drainage solutions and landscaping needs! I will be using them for any future landscaping/outdoor projects. Edited 9/9/25: I’ve had a few incidents with heavy rainfall where the system didn’t work as I would expect (resulting in standing water around the house, but none coming out of the drain towards the back of the property). I’ve communicated this to Rockaway. They were responsive, but did not take any action to remedy. Overall disappointed given the amount I’ve invested in this effort. But YMMV. I still plan to use them for other projects. Edited 11/9/25: I may have been hasty in my negative review. They did come back out and make additional changes to remedy and fix the situation at no additional cost to me. In fact, I trusted them enough to continue to use them for additional work to install a pergola.

  If you want a design team that listens, these are NOT your guys. Terrible design process. Instead of working directly with the designer, all communications funneled through the sales consultant. It felt like a game of telephone: I talked to the consultant, he talked to the designer, and the designs that came back were not what I asked for. Over and over again. I don’t know if the breakdown was the consultant not communicating with the designer or the designer just ignoring my requests? But, the dynamic was too frustrating to move forward. Imagine saying that you did not like X plant in the initial design, then several revisions later, the designer puts X plant back in as the main feature?!? Enough was enough. This working relationship was not working for me. Unfortunately, this meant eating the $800 design fee. I didn’t read the fine print. Expensive lesson, but I would rather walk away empty-handed than continue into the final design and install with a team that clearly doesn’t listen to the client.

  Rockaway is the premier outdoor company for any landscape/outdoor living projects. Their expertise, craftsmanship, and customer service is unmatched. Dempsey is a rockstar and just truly a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend going with Rockaway Sustainable Landscaping on your next project.

  We did a huge job with this company. They did an amazing. Job. Mike and his team went above and beyond to make sure everything was to our liking. We had some permit issues and they fought hard to get them settled and figured out. The turf around the pool turned out great and the driveway. Mike and his crew made this happen. He worked extremely hard with his guys and knocked job out with a positive attitude and perseverance. I definitely recommend this place and this crew if you want the job done right.

  Grit, Work Ethic, Perseverance, Expertise, Craftsmanship, Detail Oriented, Professionalism, Constant Communication, Integrity are just some of the words I would use to describe our experience with Rockaway. We were looking for solution to a drainage issue. From all the other bids, Rockaway had a solution and the experience we needed. I feel so blessed to have these knowledgeable, respectful, and hardworking gentlemen transform our backyard to a tropical oasis. Mike O, Tony, and Antonio worked with such expertise. When we saw the finished product, it was jaw dropping! I actually felt like we were on a TV show. We are in awe of the service we received. Rockaway has been nothing but amazing. I wish I could give them 10 stars. They stand out for everything they have done.
