Two Decades of Building in Castle Rock

That much time in Colorado landscaping teaches you what works. Which plants survive a Castle Rock winter. How to build a patio that won’t shift after a hard freeze. What your HOA board wants to see before it signs off.

It’s why neighbors refer us to neighbors, and why clients call us back for their second and third projects. Thank you to every homeowner who has trusted us with their property.

"I cannot say enough good things about YMS Landscaping. They kept their appointments, showed up on time, listened to our ideas and provided guidance. They helped us with our HOA review process and started the work shortly after approval. Their quality of work was exceptional and we look forward to spending time on our new patio and yard."

Tim Rice

Lakewood, CO

"We have had multiple friends and family members use YMS. They came very highly recommended and they did not disappoint. Aaron and his crew did amazing work at a price much lower than competing groups. We would recommend them to anyone, will use them again for future projects."

John Bouchillon

Castle Rock, CO

These guys did such an amazing job on what anyone would say was a challenging project. Our backyard had such a steep slope and narrow access but Aaron and crew knocked it out of the park. We’re so happy with how the yard came out and the concrete work was top notch. Can’t recommend these guys enough.

Paul Hicks

Castle Pines, CO

"Aaron, Jason, and their team did an exceptional job of updating our home and yard. They made all variables easy to understand and offered many choices that we would be happy with the outcome. I would encourage anyone to meet with them about a project they are considering."

Scott Schilter

"After weeks of planning our front yard renovation, we chose YMS Landscaping and couldn't be happier with the result. They took our vision and transformed it into a beautiful, water-wise landscape that completely changed the look of our home. … The finished product exceeded our expectations, and we've received so many compliments from neighbors already."
