I have always wanted the front of my home to be beautiful and inviting.

I have nothing but good things to say about Haughey brothers!! Ethan, the owner talked and was very patient with me. He walked me through the entire process of what they were going to do to my home which was alot of landscaping in the front using river rocks. His workers did a Phenomenal job, worked very hard & did a great clean up. I'm EXTREMELY happy with the outcome of my Landscaping . Thank you to all for your impeccable work ethics!!
Haughey Brothers were hired to do some landscaping work removing of large shrubs reestablishing both front and back yards. also replacing an inground pipe. There work was professional and well beyond my expectations. I shall be utilizing there services in the spring for possible outdoor shed removal and replacement. Good work.
Haughey Brothers Landscaping is simply the BEST in the business. Very pleased with the quality of work, price, and professionalism.
I highly recommend Haughey Brothers Landscaping. They do a great job with their weekly maintenance, as well as their other services including trimming of shrubs and keeping the flower beds nice and neat. They have recently completely renovated my lawn with thatching, core aeration, topsoil dressing, and seeding. Both Devin and Ethan are very professional to deal with, and their pricing is very reasonable. If you need a quality landscaper in Union county, contact Haughey Brothers.
We are pleased with the work done by Haughey Brothers Landscaping. If you are thinking about hiring a landscaper, you might want to hire them for a small job or a bigger project.
Haughey Brothers Landscaping did an excellent job with lawn and edging. We appreciated the service.
This is an amazing company from start to finish. We were having trouble finding reliable landscapers in the Chatham area. A lot of not call backs, no shows etc. Called Devin and he came by same day to give me an estimate on landscaping services. I received a quote same day and they began work two days later. Devin’s team is professional, hard working and the quality of their work is impressive. Everything is easy and hassle free when dealing with this company and their work speaks for itself. Pictures below. Couldn’t recommend this team more.
Hired Haughey Brothers Landscaping this year to do a major drainage project that would divert water accumulating at the base of the front of my house to stop basement and garage flooding that was occuring after major rain events. The project worked great and the flooding has stopped. Adding some photos that show the work being done and videos that show the water not accumulating in front of the house and one video showing the water being diverted down my driveway at the back of my house down to the street.
Highly recommend HAUGHEY brothers for landscaping projects. They did an amazing job planting trees for privacy and also cleaned up and redesigned our beds. They were great to work with and everything turned out beautiful.
Haughey Brothers recently completed extensive landscaping work on our front and side yards. They did an absolutely amazing job! The appearance of our home was totally transformed in two days! Both Devin and Ethan are honest, knowledgeable and very easy to work with. Their staff also arrived on time and were total professionals too.
I recently had a new walkway installed by Haughey Brothers Landscaping and was very pleased with the results. It was completed in one day within a week of my first contacting them. The before and after photos speak for themselves.
Haughey Brothers Landscaping did a fantastic job with our backyard patio! Their team did amazing, we are very pleased.
We are very happy with the work done by the Haughey Brothers and their crew. In addition to doing a Spring cleanup and mulching, they transformed two neglected areas of our property making them useful and beautiful. Ethan was easy to work with and had some great ideas to improve the landscaping of the property. Will definitely use them again. A couple of before and afters:
Devin and Ethan are extremely nice, punctual, and do fantastic jobs. I needed something relatively urgent done, and they were able to meet up, quote, change/revise quote for some other options, and on a short notice, they were able to accommodate a next day project done that originally was planned for at least 3-4 weeks out. I'll recommend them to anyone in the area that needs landscaping done!
Best in Union county!! Very responsive and did an amazing job on our landscaping! Will always be using them from now on!!
My husband and I highly recommend Ethan and Devin and their crew for any type of landscaping or hardscaping needs you have. I can't say enough good things about how professional, friendly, courteous and on time they always were each time they came to our home. They also left their work area very clean at the end of each day which is very important. What had started out as simply replacing a tired old swing set playground in our backyard turned into much more. They showed us previous work photos they did for fire pits with patios and we were immediately hooked. We are incredibly happy with our new backyard fire pit area and cannot wait to use it. They picked out beautiful plants and shrubs for the surrounding fire pit bed and also installed lighting into the pavers. It looks so pretty at night. They completed the job in record time too!!! We wouldn't hesitate to use them again for any other project we have. Thank you!!!!
We had been scouting for a landscaping company for quite some time and we are so glad we decided on Haughey Brothers! Devan & Ethan were very thorough, professional and all the employees were extremely kind and efficient. Great communication and never hesitated to answer any of our questions. They revamped our entire front yard along with the side of the house adding color and life back to it! Looking forward to more projects in the future!
Thank you to Ethan and his team! Our property looks the best its ever been, with new shrubs, trimming, and landscaping details. We appreciate working with you and trust your guidance for our property. Great work!!
I highly recommend Haughey Brothers Landscaping. They did an excellent job repairing our front walk, where tree roots had pushed up the paver stones; and our driveway, where a number of stones had sunk below the edge of the garage. They totally evened out both areas, and power-washed them as well. Now they look brand new! Haughey Brothers really did a great job.
I recently had the wonderful opportunity to work with Haughey brothers landscaping for the installation of my new patio, and the experience exceeded all my expectations. The owner, Devin, personally oversaw the project, bringing an unmatched level of professionalism and expertise to the table. From our first meeting, Devin impressed me with his deep knowledge and passion for landscaping. He was incredibly helpful in guiding us through the design process, ensuring that every detail was tailored to our preferences and needs. His hands-on approach and commitment to excellence were evident throughout the project. The team working under Devin was just as professional and efficient, completing the patio on schedule and to the highest quality. The final result is a breathtaking outdoor space that has become the highlight of our home. Devin’s leadership and personal involvement as the owner truly made a difference. It’s clear that he and his company Haughey brothers landscaping stand for quality, customer satisfaction, and beautiful craftsmanship. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch landscaping services.
The Haughey Brothers were recommended to us for some backyard landscaping work. They were highly responsive in providing us with proposals and patient as we changed our plans several times. They were prompt and professional throughout the 1-day installation. The crew was highly industrious in properly preparing the area for the plants, rock landscaping and sod. Ethan and his team went above and beyond to ensure the job was successful. We will use them again next year for other yard improvements.
Ethan and Devin (the Haughey Brothers) are awesome! They are responsive, professional, reliable and do great work for a reasonable price. They are hard workers and always go above and beyond, while getting things done on time (and as promised). I recommend them for all of your landscaping needs.
We were looking for a complete overhaul of our front landscaping and walkway. I reached out to The Haughey Brothers and received a very timely response - which is rare these days as I reached out to a few different companies and received zero response from the majority of them. I submitted a request for a quote through the Haughey Brothers Landscaping website (which was very easy to use) and Ethan gave me a call that same day. We discussed what I was looking for and he actually stopped by to see the space - again, the same day - in order to provide the most accurate quote. He arrived with an idea for the space already in mind and described his plan in great detail. I could immediately tell he was someone with solid experience in this field. He measured the space and then said he would get back to me with a quote as soon as possible. I was pleasantly surprised to find that "as soon as possible" meant that very night! We worked together on revising the quote so that it met my exact needs and budget and then we were ready to get started. The Haughey Brothers team got to work very quickly. They dropped off the plants and began the job within a day or two of signing the contract. Ethan was extremely communicative throughout the entire process and I really could not be happier with how it ended up looking. I would highly recommend their services. They were a pleasure to work with and I look forward to using them again for any of my future landscaping or hardscaping needs. Thanks again to the entire team for a job very well done.
Ethan had a lot of great ideas on how to improve our landscaping. He was very thorough and patient. Work was done within needed timeline and price was good.
Shout out to Haughey Brothers Landscaping!! Not only did they do beautiful work, but they are courteous , professional, and most importantly, actually return phone calls! In fact, their communication is excellent. So glad we used them, and recommend them highly!
We were so pleased with the work done by Haughey Brothers. They planted a row of bushes that look fabulous. Ethan and Devin were responsive and professional. I highly recommend them for your landscaping needs.
Since my husband was unable to cut grass because of an injury the past two weeks, Haughey brothers landscaping responded to my message the same day and helped us out! They cut our lawn and trimmed a bush and we were saved from getting a fine from the town. Great job and so appreciated!
We have been using the landscaping services of the Haughey Brothers since they started their business. We have been very pleased with their service and would like to recommend them highly. Aside from their work, the brothers are pleasant and pleasant to deal with.
Setting up a job was simple through their online booking system. I was able to get an estimate for the work the same day. The crew that serviced my property was timely, efficient, and did a great job! Highly recommend Haughey Brothers Landscaping.
We used Haughey Landscaping and we are very pleased with the outcome. The pricing was fair and the workers were thorough. They cleaned up after themselves, which I consider a very important part of the job. The only negative is that Ethan said he would place a stepping stone in front of the shed and he did not. I reminded him twice and both times he said he forgot but would do it and he didn't. To be fair it wasn't part of the original estimate, I asked on the day the work was done. Other than that we are pleased with what was done. I changed my rating to a five star because they followed up on their promise. 👍
I couldn't maintain my front and side yard while undergoing breast cancer treatment, and Haughey Brothers Landscaping has given me such a beautiful gift back by fixing up my gardens again! Thank you! I can now sit and enjoy my gardens again! I hope next year Haughey Brothers Landscaping can help me tackle my back yard too!
I highly recommend the Haughey brothers for landscaping services. They arrived on time and completed the work as promised. They were professional and had a great work ethic. They also provided great guidance with design and overall landscaping needs. I would definitely use them again in the future.
We could not be more happy with the work the Haughey Brothers & crew did with our landscaping. We do not have a green thumb and our landscaping needed a lot of work. They gave us an estimate and started work right away. They brought a team of hard working & respectful guys who transformed our landscaping into the nicest on the block! I can't wait to use them again and again for other items we need done outside. You won't regret hiring them for your next project.
Great service! This is my second time using Haughey Brothers Landscaping and it was again a great experience with an outstanding final result. Super responsive and worked with me throughout the process to ensure the yard was exactly what I was looking for. I will use them in the future for all my landscaping needs. Highly Recommend!
How We Design Beautiful Landscapes
Designing a landscape that you can enjoy and be proud of is a complex and multi-step process. Landscape design requires a great deal of thought and care to ensure that the end result will meet your needs and preferences. A well-designed landscape not only adds beauty and value to your property but also enhances your lifestyle and increases the enjoyment you get out of your property.
Design Considerations
Here are the factors that we need to consider when designing your new landscape:
#1. Lay of the land: The topography of the land, including its slope, elevation, and drainage patterns, can have a significant impact on the design of a landscape. These factors can affect the placement of features such as patios, retaining walls, and water features.
#2. Size of the area: The size of the area that is being designed will also affect the design. We must consider the amount of available space, and how best to use that space to create a cohesive and functional design.
#3. Use of plants: Plants are an essential part of any landscape design, and the choice of plants must be carefully considered. We must consider factors such as the growing zone, soil type, sun exposure, and plant growth characteristics. We must also consider your preferences and the purpose of the plants, whether they are for shade, color, privacy, or aesthetic appeal.
#4. Plant Growth At Maturity: When selecting plants as part of your landscape design, we must consider how they will grow and how big they will be at maturity. Your landscape 2, 3, or even 5 years down the road will change as your plants grow. This is an important design detail we need to consider to ensure that the plants do not outgrow their designated spaces or become an obstacle for maintenance in the future.
#5. Hardscaping: Hardscaping, which includes features such as patios, walkways, and retaining walls, can be an integral part of your landscape design. We must consider the function and aesthetics of these features and how they will fit into the overall design.
#6. Softscaping: Softscaping is all of the softer, natural elements of your landscape. This could include lawn areas, garden beds, landscape beds, hedges, shrubs, and trees. Do you want a landscape that is low maintenance? Do you want a landscape that reduces watering requirements? Or how about natural habitat for local wildlife? These are factors we need to consider with your landscape design.
#7: Budget: We know not everyone likes to talk about their budget but this is critical to getting a great design. We can design beautiful outdoor spaces but we don't want to provide you with ideas and concepts that are outside of your price range. If we know and understand your budget we can ensure the options we provide are going to stay within your range. We don't want to design a landscape that you cannot afford to build.

Questions About Landscape Design?
We've tried to answer some of the most common questions our customers ask about landscape design.
What's the difference between 2D and 3D landscape design?
2D designs are flat, blueprint-style layouts of your landscape plan. They're great for understanding layout and space. 3D designs, however, offer a lifelike visualization of what the final project will look like, including textures, colors, and how the space feels.
Can you work with my existing landscape elements during a redesign?
Absolutely! We can incorporate existing elements such as trees, structures, or favorite plants into the new design, ensuring a seamless blend of old and new.
What landscaping trends are popular right now in New Jersey?
In New Jersey, sustainable and eco-friendly landscaping trends are gaining popularity. This includes native plant gardens that require less water, natural stone or paver hardscaping, and outdoor living spaces like kitchens and fire pits for year-round enjoyment.
Can landscape design help with privacy for my New Jersey home?
Yes, strategic landscape design can enhance privacy. We use elements like fencing, privacy hedges, and strategically placed trees and shrubs to create a natural barrier while maintaining the aesthetic appeal of your property.
How long does it take to create a landscape design plan?
The time to create a landscape design plan varies based on the project's complexity. For most residential projects in New Jersey, it can take anywhere from a 7-10 days. This allows us to thoroughly understand your needs and carefully plan each detail.
Can I request revisions to the design plan? How does this process work?
Absolutely! Your feedback is crucial. After presenting the initial design, we welcome your input and will make revisions to ensure the plan meets your vision. We typically allow for a set number of revisions within the project scope to refine the design to your satisfaction.
What factors influence the choice of materials in a landscape design?
Several factors influence material choice: aesthetic preferences, maintenance requirements, durability, and budget. In New Jersey, we also consider the local climate and the material's ability to withstand seasonal changes.
How do you handle unexpected challenges during the design process?
In landscape design, flexibility is key. If unexpected challenges arise, such as site constraints or material availability, we communicate these promptly and provide alternative solutions. Our experience allows us to adapt and find creative ways to overcome such challenges.
