A Stellar Experience with Evergreen Ecoscape and Design, Colorado Springs…read more Hey, we all know that Life is complicated enough, so it's always nice to call on really hardworking professionals to lighten your burden and workload a bit. With that in mind, I was extremely impressed with Evergreen Ecoscape and Design. They helped us with a couple of landscape projects for our house in North Colorado Springs (Northgate area), and their services have been nothing short of exceptional. Our first project involved removing some sod in the front yard and replacing it with landscape rocks. This project not only enhanced the aesthetics of our yard but also promised to reduce water usage during the growing season and minimize the effort required for lawn maintenance (mowing, aeration). Evergreen, starting with Wesley, did a fantastic job of listening to our needs. Wesley came up with a proposal that met or exceeded all our expectations. They ordered the rock, installed the contractor-grade weed cloth, and hauled away the debris, making the entire process smooth and efficient. One thing to keep in mind is that many Colorado Springs landscape companies do not work in the winter. Evergreen is a notable exception. They worked around the weather and snow to ensure that the work was done professionally and not that busy winter time. Their commitment to their work is evident in their ability to adapt to challenging conditions without compromising quality. The second project involved building a dry creek bed, or arroyo, in the backyard. This project was designed to help with flood mitigation during summer storms. Tyler and Luke were phenomenal in executing this relatively complex project. As with most projects, we encountered some snags, but Tyler was able to adjust the plan to ensure that the water flowed correctly and made sure that the water gutters from the roofs had an unobstructed path to lower ground. Very important for the torrential down pours we sometime get in the Summer. I was very impressed with Evergreen's professionalism, communication, hard work, and ability to improvise to ensure that the project deliverables were met. They assured me that they would stay until the job was done right and correct, which they did. Evergreen Ecoscape and Design is an awesome company to work with, which explains their high customer satisfaction ratings. They excel in value, cost, efficiency, and professionalism. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking to enhance their outdoor space. A+++ in terms of value and service. Thank you, Evergreen Ecoscape and Design, for transforming our yard and for your commitment to excellence. We look forward to collaborating with you on future projects.

Disappointing initial interaction so I never got their services. I spent a few days working with…read moretheir team on a very simple landscape maintenance project. Our front yard is very small and we have an even smaller patch of turf that we wanted some help mowing/fertilizing. I was satisfied with their pricing structure but for the fact that they wanted to charge an insanely high hourly rate for hand pulling weeds. I called to talk to them about this and to point out that there weren't many weeds that were grown but a lot of fledgling weeds which was the whole reason we needed the help (we handpick / dig up more mature weeds all the time). We reached an agreement we were comfortable with and then when they sent us an upgraded bid, they still had a crazy high amount baked into the bid for handpicking weeds. I called to ask if they could get an eyes on the property before we approved that high amount (as I was comfortable with them spraying instead of handpicking) and they said they didn't have time to send anyone out and that the height of the weed will determine whether they spray or handpick, then they told me we could handpick the weeds that were taller ourselves if we wanted to, which was pretty upsetting. I felt very nickle and dimed by these folks given that our yard is not very big and the cost including the handpicking was the highest bid we received by far. We wanted to work with them but they were so concerned about a team of landscapers having to pick maybe 5-6 weeds, they set a very high price. I even sent them a picture of the yard and they even agreed there arent many weeds but still insisted on the high handpicking charge. Very disappointed.

We highly recommend Accent Landscapes with Roger Haywood, Michael Becker's design, and Mike's team…read more They did an amazing job on our yard. We have a new house with a lot that has great views and we needed a design that would make the most of it. The backyard was very sloped so they brought in 660 tons of fill so that we can walkout of our house without steps. They created a large patio with a large stone firepit, a dining area, raised planters, lots of garden areas, native grass with wildflowers, and a trail down the hill. We are now the neighborhood party house. They did all of this in Oct-Dec so don't be afraid to plant in the winter. A big thank you to Mike's team who worked very hard to make Michael's design come alive.

They're very knowledgeable about which plants are drought resistant and good for our altitude in Gleneagle. They know what is resistant to being eaten by the deer. They have a designer on staff that is beyond amazing at yard layout. The designer was able to incorporate some concrete design into our house build so that our builder was able to pour the concrete to blend with the designer's vision for the front steps and sidewalk that swings around to the backyard. The work crew was so friendly and talented, hard working. It really is an outstanding company. A couple of plants didn't make it through the first winter, and they came out and replaced them without us even asking. They check up on the yard every once in a while just to make sure everything is taking root and growing. They also did all of the up-lighting on trees and lighting on the sidewalk. Also lighting around the gorgeous fire pit they built for us. Oh, did I mention our water feature?!!! And they did a rock river on our side yard where we had drainage issues dealing with runoff during rain storms. Works great! We have some Kentucky blue grass up around the house, but not much. We stuck to a lot of natural grasses and wildflowers which are more drought resistant. We had them put a beautiful waterfall under our bedroom window and listen to it in the summer when we go to sleep.

Trustworthy landscapers are hard to find. They all sound the same initially, but how their work…read morestands up over time, is how trust is built. We've put in the time and money and found Bella Giardino to be highly skilled, competent, and to put out high quality landscaping. They have also provided us several excellent referrals for work they do not do (such as concrete driveways and asphalt). The work is lead by three people... Bridget, Mark, and Oswaldo. There will always be at least one but likely all three people working on the project at one point or another. They have excellent judgment when "uh oh's" come up. They don't take short cuts or hide things (thinking you'll never see them). They know the building codes and go beyond them to be sure you'll not have to call them back out to fix something. But, should that ever happen, they stand behind their work. They showed up early, as always, and they cleaned up everything each day. So, for example, spreading out a tarp to catch mortar and cement gets cleaned up and folded each day, then unfolded the next day. They spray off dust, sweep up debris, and put ladders and tools neatly aside so that the project doesn't look like they stopped at 5:00 pm and just walked away. They are all very personable and friendly and no one smoked at all on the job site. That's something you don't see very often. We live in Black Forest and I usually have to tell the foreman and follow up to be sure smokers smoke in their vehicles. But with Bella, none of their employees smoked. They didn't even smell like smoke, so maybe they don't even smoke. That's like finding a unicorn! It was, literally, a breath of fresh air! They work quickly, but didn't sacrifice quality. The project (size, shape, materials, color, timing, and budget) came in exactly as we all planned. We did spend a few days up front planning which is part of making sure the execution goes well. They finished ahead of schedule and the finished product (outdoor fireplace) looks better that we imagined. For our particular project, we went with a front-venting gas fireplace. This had a couple advantages. First, all the heat came out where you were sitting rather than up the chimney. Second, the cost saving for not having to build-out an actual chimney was probably a $3K savings. The flame only uses about 50,000 btu's (which sounds small - but is about what you can get using a front-venting system), but all of the 50,000 btu's come out the front where you are. If you use a 150,000 btu flame with a chimney, most of the heat is lost. Anyway, we are satisfied with both the look of the flame and the heat output. We consider ourselves to have high standards and Bella is on our list. I would not use another landscaper, period. This is our third project in the last 5 years using Bella Giardino! In short, we've had 2 large landscaping projects that involved hundreds of plants, shrubs, trees, drip systems, retaining walls, large boulders, cedar fencing, decorative rock (retaining wall), pavers, grass, and most recently, a beautiful outdoor gas fireplace (the current project).
