About Nelson Contracting inc
“As we begin our 45th year in the Landscaping industry, our small business philosophy has led to a majority of our new work coming from customer recommendations and word of mouth.”
We are a family owned and operated business of moderate size whose focus is on providing quality and service! This philosophy has allowed us to keep many long term customers, some of which have been with us for over 30 years! Besides retaining long term customers we have received landscape improvement awards in Cuyahoga Falls, Fairlawn, Middleburg Heights, Fairview Park, and many other North East Ohio communities.
Our manageable size allows us to keep exceptional employees with us much longer than the industry average; this means they have all the skills needed to provide you with the best service possible. A fantastic example of this is Ben Rutting, our current supervisor, who started with us in 1997 when he was 16 years old. While working his way through Agricultural Technical school, he was a standout crew member and promoted to foreman. He now oversees multiple crews and gives our customers superior value through his great work ethic and commitment to always get the job done right.
I am proud to say that all of our employees, like Ben, are stand up people who really care about doing a good job every time they go out in the field. Should you have a need for landscape installation of any kind from walls to drainage to planting to making your out door dreams become a reality. I want to thank you for taking a look at our website! We hope this will lead to a conversation about your landscape needs!

Testimonials
of our clients say about us...
"Nelson Contracting Inc took care of an important drainage project on our property. They did it quickly and under-budget. Their crew was hard working and friendly. I'd recommend this firm to everyone."
Catrina Sampson
?We needed a complete overhaul of our backyard and after multiple quotes and design plans were explored, we decided to go with Nelson Contracting Inc. They were so easy to work with, professional and truly gifted at their craft. They stood by their word and came out a year after the work had been completed and replaced plants that didn't take and are still available for questions when things come up. Great company with a great crew!"
