Judith Moeckel
The staff of Torrison is fabulous. They listen to what I want, and follow through on my desires to the letter, plus some! They have worked out here in the woods of Killingworth for many years, and have created a beautiful garden of native plants and pollinator plants. Every year, they move and split plants, and also mulch everything beautifully. I love yah, Torrison, and I am happy to share photos upon request!
Kathi Sundberg
From design of our backyard landscaping to completion, Torrinson was fabulous & executed our vision. Colleen & her team were organized & thorough. Colleen & the crew realized some of the trees needed to be relocated due to our leeching fields and adjusted the plan accordingly. The crew worked tirelessly & meticulously on the stonework as well as the landscaping . We are extremely pleased with the outcome of our backyard project. We will not hesitate to call them for any future outdoor plans.
Peg Seabrooke
I don't remember how I first discovered Torrison, but I am so very grateful that I did. Over the last 8 years, they have helped me transform my back yard into what people refer to as a Zen garden. Every aspect of their workmanship is beautiful from the patio and stone walls to the artfully designed gardens. My last addition was a putting green. A splurge but so worth it! I would highly recommend Torrison to anyone that is looking for a top notch company that really cares about their customers.
Jenna Driscoll
My husband and I have been customers of Torrison for over 15 years and never have any reservation about recommending their stone and garden services to friends and family. The garden maintenance team led by Colleen has always been responsive and courteous, and always particular about ensuring our satisfaction when the job is complete.
